The same job can be posted on three boards at once. In JobIntel, it shows up once. The board badge on its card names one board and how many more. Click it, and it reads Found on 3 boards, with each board listed.
Open the job, and its Source Boards card lists every source it came from, here LinkedIn, Indeed and Glassdoor, each with its link. Nothing is thrown away when listings merge.
Every new job is compared with the jobs you already have, by its title, company and location. When they match, JobIntel merges them into one listing and keeps every source. That works however the job comes in: a search, a pasted link, a screenshot, a forwarded alert or the extension.
Sometimes two listings are the same job but do not merge, for example when one has a different title. Open the one you do not need, click the More actions menu, and choose Delete.
Open your feed and click the board badge on any job to see where else it was posted. One listing, every source.
