For five years, the LinkedIn data industry ran on a single trick — rented accounts, rotating proxies, session tokens traded on Telegram. Then the compliance bill came due. Proxycurl closed. The market froze. Agent builders scrambled.
We looked at the problem and realised every workaround shared one mistake: pretending to be a LinkedIn user. LinkFetch doesn't. Your user installs our Chrome extension; their session stays theirs; we fetch on their behalf. It's slower per-call. It's also the only model that survives the next five years of enforcement.
Every profile lookup happens through the end-user's own LinkedIn session, via the LinkFetch Chrome extension. No fake accounts, no session impersonation, no stolen cookies. If LinkedIn can see it, and the user can see it, LinkFetch can fetch it — for that user.
We don't scrape behind logins we don't own. We don't rent accounts. We don't pretend to be you. The boring answer is often the right one for compliance.
`source`, `fetched_at`, `freshness_days` on every response. If you can't explain where your data came from, you can't ship agent workflows to regulated customers. We give you the audit trail by default.
Typed SDKs, curl that just works, one-line MCP install. Pricing you can do in your head. Docs written by the people who shipped the code. No sales call to try anything.
