Stellary vs the tools you already know

Every comparison follows the same grid: execution (board, cards, sprints), documentation, piloting (cockpit, decisions, risks), AI agents, MCP and maturity. The cells are written once per tool and dated, so two pages never contradict each other and you can see when a claim was last checked.

These pages are for teams that already use one of these tools and are weighing a move, not for a first purchase. That is why each page opens with the cases where the other tool remains the better default: a mature Jira instance with hundreds of automations, a Notion workspace that is mostly documentation, a Linear team that ships fast and needs nothing more.

Read the verdicts as profiles, not scores. We do not add up points. We say which kind of team, at which stage, gains from switching — and which loses time. If you want the underlying method, the criteria and the update cadence are public.
