Not a second backlog
Linear owns the issues; StoryMap owns the map. Titles, statuses, assignees and estimates are read from Linear rather than copied, so there is no second system to keep in step — and nothing to migrate back if you stop.
Built for teams that run on Linear
Connect your workspace and see your entire product on one living board — journeys across, release slices down, every card a real Linear issue. Nothing moves out of Linear.
Free up to 150 mapped issues. No credit card.
Swipe the board sideways to move across the journeys — it is shown at full size rather than shrunk to fit.
Every issue stays clear. The shape they add up to is what gets hard to see — Linear answers “what are we working on right now?” perfectly, and that is a different question from “what is the product?”
01
Describing the whole product takes six saved views and a few minutes of scrolling.
02
The gap nobody planned for is easy to miss until a customer finds it.
03
The picture of the product lives in a diagram someone has to remember to update.
You never face an empty board. Your first action is correcting a map, not creating one.
STEP 1
OAuth, then pick a team. No import, no CSV, no setup wizard.
STEP 2
Auto-placement clusters by project, parent/child links and shared labels, then orders each cell by priority and cycle.
We found 186 issues.
150 were placed automatically.
36 need review.
STEP 3
Accept the suggestions that look right, drag the ones that don't, rename a journey, draw a release slice across the product.
STEP 4
The board keeps reading from Linear. Close the tab for a month and it is still current when you come back.
Two things worth knowing before you connect anything.
Linear owns the issues; StoryMap owns the map. Titles, statuses, assignees and estimates are read from Linear rather than copied, so there is no second system to keep in step — and nothing to migrate back if you stop.
One flat price per Linear workspace, and nothing charged per person. Four people or forty, the price is the same $39.
Both plans are the same product. The only difference is how many issues you have placed on the board.
