LinkedIn launched a “connected apps” feature that automatically adds skill statements to profiles and creates a description of each linked app’s usage.
It supports Descript, Duolingo, Lovable, Relay.app and Replit, and adds 14 apps such as Buffer, Fiverr and HubSpot.
CEO Dan Shapero says the tool, which will later add Adobe Express, Adobe Firefly, Fullcast, GitHub Copilot, Gong, OpusClip, Riverside, Sprinklr, Webflow and Zapier, gives recruiters credible proof of capability.
