After two years in stealth, we're excited to announce Index: the new planning and discovery tool for Product Management.
Index is here because it’s time for a new era in Product Management.
My top priority at Atlassian, where I spent five years as a PM, was leading product discovery and planning. I’d brainstorm ideas with my team, collect requests from other groups, and bring plans backed by customer insights to the founders and leadership team.
Ultimately, the line between success and failure came down to choosing the right projects, and setting the right direction. But I didn’t have purpose-built tools – I was stuck in issue trackers, or juggling spreadsheets and whiteboards. I knew of legacy PM tools like Productboard and Aha, but they were clunky and not being used by any of the product leaders I looked up to.
Fast-forward to today, and issue tracking is undergoing a dramatic transformation – Linear is fast becoming the delivery tool of choice for modern engineering teams. But despite engineering now having fast and purpose-built tooling, Product Managers are still juggling Miro, Spreadsheets, and Jira add-ons. None of these tools are connected to the modern workflow and customer context in sales and support tools. Roadmaps are hidden, fragmented, lacking customer insight, and disconnected from engineering work.
Product leaders deserve a modern experience for product planning and discovery. Something powerful, flexible, and integrated with the latest tools.
That’s why we built Index, the new standard for Product Management:
Every layout at your fingertips
Breeze through planning with a Whiteboard, Table, Roadmap, and Board for every step of the process. One place to go, infinite flexibility, and context on your projects carried throughout.
Built for B2B Product Management
Natively connect to your customer context, leveraging their requests, insights, and feedback all in one place. Index connects to Hubspot, Intercom, Dovetail, Attio, Gong, and more – so you can back up your vision with customer evidence.
The product-native companion to Linear
To build a true companion to Linear for PMs, we knew we had to raise the bar. Interactions are instant, every layout is collaborative, and it fits Linear like a glove with native sync.
