Folk has upgraded its LinkedIn integration to pull significantly more data when enriching contacts.

What changed

When you add a contact from LinkedIn (via browser extension or manual import), Folk now captures:

  • Current and previous job titles with dates
  • Mutual connections count
  • Recent LinkedIn activity summary
  • Company size and industry from the company page

Previously, enrichment was limited to name, title, company, and email. The expanded data populates automatically into custom fields.

Practical impact

For recruiting teams and partnership managers, having job history and activity context directly in the CRM eliminates the back-and-forth between LinkedIn and your contact database.

The mutual connections data is particularly useful for warm introductions — you can quickly see who on your team is already connected to a prospect.

Availability

Available on all paid Folk plans. Free plan users get limited enrichment (name, title, company only).
