# Monitor Company Growth Signals

**Use case:** 

Track how companies grow on LinkedIn over time - no login. Run it on a schedule and each run compares employee count and follower count against the previous snapshot, emitting a growth trend (delta and % change). Great for spotting hiring surges and momentum in your target accounts. Clean JSON/CSV.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
This Task's input is already configured above — use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.
