Client updates keep turning into a second sprint review.
Completed cycles should already read like a clear update: what shipped, what changed, and what needs attention.

The problem
Same work, too many retellings
Updates, summaries, and meeting prep should stay tied to the tickets your team already ships.
Completed cycles should already read like a clear update: what shipped, what changed, and what needs attention.
Follow-ups sit in comments until someone copies them into a separate doc before the next meeting.
Without a client-facing view, teams keep translating Linear into emails, screenshots, and status threads.

How it works
From Linear delivery to client updates
Alignear sits on top of Linear: it turns completed work into client-facing updates and keeps follow-up tied to tickets. For UI detail, see the product.
Cycles and issues stay the source of truth. Alignear adds a client layer on top—no second tracker.
Completed cycles become updates; filters create stakeholder views; clients get a portal with history.
Send manually, on a schedule, or auto-send when a cycle closes.
Capture key context once and keep it attached to the issue for the next meeting.
Stop translating Linear into status decks
AI-assisted cycle summaries, saved stakeholder views, and a client-facing history—without rebuilding the story every week.
