Shield is winding down.

Both Google and LinkedIn made it clear that we could not continue operating Shield as it was built. We decided not to fight it.

Since 2018, Shield has helped people understand the work they were doing on LinkedIn. Tens of thousands of creators, writers, founders, and operators used Shield to make sense of their words, their content. That mattered to us. We hope it mattered to you.

To all of you who trusted us, thank you.
