Dnipro: Profile Checker for LinkedIn

Reads LinkedIn profiles for signals pointing to fabricated profiles.

WHO IT IS FOR Recruiters and sourcers double-checking a candidate. Founders and hiring managers who screen without a talent team. Security and compliance teams at remote-first companies. Sales teams reviewing inbound. Anyone who has ever wondered whether the person on the other side of a message exists. WHAT IT DOES Open a LinkedIn profile and Dnipro reads that page, then reports how many of seven checks raised a question. Each check looks for something that turns up often on fabricated profiles. One signal means little. Several together is a pattern worth a second look. WHAT IT CHECKS - Account age — how recently this LinkedIn account was created, measured against a reference sample of real profiles - Profile address — whether a custom profile URL was set, or it still carries the random suffix LinkedIn assigns - Photo — whether there is a photograph of a person, and when it appeared relative to the account - Network size — connections and followers relative to the years of experience claimed - Timeline of tools — technologies named in roles that ended before those technologies were released - Repeated wording — identical phrases reused across descriptions of different employers - Social proof — endorsements and recommendations, weighed against how large the network actually is
