What happened to Shield
In spring 2026, Shield's founders announced they're winding the product down.
In their own words: “Both Google and LinkedIn made it clear that we could not continue operating Shield as it was built. We decided not to fight it.”
No migration path. No endorsed successor. And no announced date for when accounts and data access go dark.
Shield was a good product. It earned its users, and it kept them for years. This page isn't a victory lap — it's a place to land.
First: export your data from Shield. Today.
Shield hasn't said when data access ends. That's not reassuring — it means it could end without warning.
So before you read another word of anyone's sales page, including this one: log into Shield and export your post-history CSV.
That file is years of your work. It's yours. Get it onto your own machine.
Done? Good. Here's what we can do with it.
What carries over: everything Shield knew about your posts
Send us your Shield export and we'll import it for you — a person runs it, checks it, and confirms when your history is live.
What lands in your dashboard:
- Every post — text and format (text, image, video, document, article, poll)
- Impressions — per post, your full history
- Engagement — reactions, comment counts, and shares for each post
- Your timeline — original posting dates preserved, so trends read true
Shield spent years accumulating that history. The import means Intelligence doesn't start from zero — your analytics begin with everything Shield watched you build.
One honest boundary: Shield's export contains your posts and their stats — not who your commenters were. So your history arrives complete, and your lead pipeline starts fresh, filling as the extension picks up engagement on your posts from here forward.
What's different: Shield told you what happened. Intelligence tells you who's ready.
Shield was analytics, and good analytics — impressions, engagement, growth, the rear-view mirror.
Intelligence keeps the mirror and adds the part analytics never had: it reads every comment on your posts, scores each one for buying intent, and ranks the people worth a conversation.
What Shield did
- Tracked your posts' performance over time
- Showed impressions, engagement, growth trends
- Told you what worked
What Intelligence does
- All of that — including your imported Shield history
- Reads and scores every comment for buying intent
- Ranks commenters into a warm-lead pipeline
- Surfaces the high-reach people already sharing your work
- Tells you who's ready — so you know where the next client is
What stays the way you liked it
- Never your password. The extension reads the engagement on your own posts as you browse. Your LinkedIn credentials are never seen, never stored.
- Your own posts only. No scraping strangers, no mass anything, no automation acting as you.
- The numbers, still here. Followers, impressions, engagement rate, reach — the analytics habit survives the move.
- Your data stays yours. Isolated at the database level, and exportable from your dashboard whenever you want — including the day you leave. We hold doors open; we don't lock them.
Start free. The import is free either way.
Free (no card): connect the extension and we score up to 100 of your recent comments — real ranked leads before you pay anything.
$199/month for everything: unlimited scoring, full history, amplifiers, audience analytics, network, and voice tools.
The Shield import isn't gated behind the paid tier. Your history is yours; moving it shouldn't cost anything.

Questions
- Shield got shut down. How do I know the same thing won't happen to you?
Honest answer: nobody building on top of LinkedIn can promise you forever, and you should be suspicious of anyone who does.
What we can tell you is what's different. Shield's model required operating at a scale and in a way the platforms ultimately said no to. Intelligence is a narrower surface: the extension reads the engagement on your own posts as you browse — data already on your screen — and nothing is automated on your behalf. No mass actions, no posting as you, no password.
And we built for the scenario we'd rather not think about: your data is exportable from your dashboard, any day, including a bad one. If the worst ever happened, you'd walk out with your history — through the same door we're holding open for you right now.
- What exactly gets imported from my Shield CSV?
- Your posts and their performance: post text and format, original posting dates, impressions, reactions, comment counts, and shares — your full history. What the export doesn't contain (and so we can't import): the identities of your commenters. Lead scoring starts with the engagement Intelligence captures from your posts going forward.
- How does the import actually work?
- You export the CSV from Shield, send it to us, and we run the import and confirm when your history is live in your dashboard. It's done by a person, carefully, and it's free. Re-imports are safe — if you exported twice, nothing duplicates.
- Do you need my LinkedIn password, like, ever?
- No. Not for the import (that's just a CSV file), and not for the product. The extension reads the engagement on your own posts as you browse; your credentials are never seen and never stored.
Your history took years to build.
