The Shield Index ends here

Shield is winding down, and with it, the data pipeline that made the Shield Index possible. The benchmarks we've sent you week over week were all built on data we no longer collect. So the Index ends here.

We launched the Index because we think you deserve an honest, data-backed understanding of what's actually happening on LinkedIn. No hype, no guru takes, just the numbers exactly as they are.

We hope the Index served you well while it lasted.

Thank you for reading.
