Comparison
Alignear vs manual client updates
Alignear is a client communication layer for teams using Linear. Instead of rewriting shipped work into emails every week, it turns closed cycles into client-ready reports and a searchable portal—automatically tied to your Linear data.
| Capability | Alignear | Manual client updates |
|---|---|---|
| Source of truth | Reads live Linear cycles and issues | You copy from Linear into email or slides |
| Time per cycle | Review and send a draft report in minutes | Hours rewriting the same work for each client |
| Client visibility | Dedicated portal without Linear seats | Inbox threads and attachments that get lost |
| Consistency | Same structure every cycle | Format drifts; details get dropped |
| Searchability | Clients search past cycles in the portal | Dig through email history |
Bottom line
If your team already ships in Linear but still spends Monday mornings rewriting progress for clients, Alignear removes the manual translation layer without changing how engineers work.
