Secured USD 4.2M Seed Round

Linear raised a USD 4.2M seed round led by Sequoia Capital to build software that helps teams focus on work instead of managing it. This funding supports the vision of enabling creators and managers to work more effectively without unnecessary process overhead.

Secured a USD 4.2M Seed Round We are creating software for startups and companies who look to create impact. We believe creators should be able to focus on work, not managing their work, and managers should be able to focus on creating alignment and direction, and not micro-managing timelines and tasks. Any process shouldn’t come in the way of creating. To build this vision, we’ve raised a USD 4.2M seed round, led by Sequoia Capital with participation from Index Ventures and others.
