> vs linear

Built around the spec, not the issue_

Linear is a fast tracker for issues, projects and cycles. Allye is built for teams whose coding agents do the work: a spec with anchors, the docs and memory around it, and a crew that delivers it as one reviewed PR.

Side by side_

Linear is a fast, opinionated tracker. Allye is narrower on purpose: the spec, its context and the agents that deliver it.

Start with one spec_

Allye has no Linear import today. Start your next feature as a spec in Allye; the issues already in Linear stay where they are, and your agents can keep Linear's MCP server next to Allye's.
