The problem
The real progress lives in commits, pull requests and tickets — three tools your team checks separately, if at all. Status meetings end up reconstructing what the tools already know.
What changes
GitHub and Linear feed one shared picture. What shipped, what’s in review and what’s next sit together — so progress is visible without anyone writing a status update.
How Humble helps
1
Connect both tools

Link GitHub and Linear from Connections. Humble brings the activity into one view.
2
See progress in one place
Image — team timeline showing merged pull requests and closed tickets
Merged pull requests and completed tickets appear on the team’s timeline as they happen.

Skip the status-meeting reconstruction
