Frequently Asked Questions
Does OrgX replace Linear or Asana?
No! OrgX works WITH your existing PM tools. We integrate with Linear, and support for Asana and Jira is coming. Think of OrgX as the shared record that connects your PM tool to everything else.
Why do I need both?
PM tools track work. OrgX executes it. Linear tells you what needs to be done. OrgX agents coordinate across Linear, GitHub, Notion, and Slack to actually move work forward without manual intervention.
What about built-in automation in Linear/Asana?
Built-in automation handles simple workflows within that tool. OrgX handles cross-tool orchestration and intelligent coordination that requires context from multiple sources.
