Linear:
Linear is a project management and issue tracking platform designed for high-performance software development teams. It offers tools for organizing issues, planning sprints, tracking roadmaps, and managing team workflows, with deep integrations into GitHub, GitLab, and other developer tools.
n8n:
n8n is a flexible, open-source automation platform for building end-to-end workflows with visual nodes for APIs, databases, and AI providers. With Connect AI, you can power AI nodes in n8n with real-time, governed data from across your business systems—without reverse-ETL jobs, brittle scripts, or manual exports.

Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Connect AI is first managed Model Context Protocol (MCP) platform for AI integration. Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting AI assistants, agents, and automations to external tools and data.
With Connect AI's managed MCP platform, you can present your enterprise systems as standardized MCP tools and resources and call them directly from AI.
Instead of building and maintaining dozens of one-off MCP Servers, your AI simply calls one universal MCP URL from Connect AI, and gets governed access to live data from across your enterprise stack.
Access live Linear data in other popular AI tools
No complicated data movement, ETL, or data integration required. Securely connect live Linear data with any AI tool that supports MCP. Select your preferred tool below to learn more.
