Linear verdict
The strongest choice for product engineering teams that want process to disappear. Look elsewhere if you need cross-department portfolio reporting.

- Sensible defaults reduce setup to minutes
- Cycle automation genuinely improves planning hygiene
Postman verdict
The default API workbench. Decide deliberately whether your API contracts should live here or in your repository.
- Ubiquitous: most engineers already know it
- Strong testing and mocking capability
- Documentation publishing is genuinely usable
