Find the right people before you ever pitch.
Scout searches public, opt-in signal — where people are already asking for exactly what your project offers — matches it to your project and intent, and hands you a ranked shortlist to approve. No scraping. No cold blasts. You stay in control.
From public signal to a shortlist you approve.
Scout never messages anyone. It surfaces where interest already exists, ranks it against your project, and lets you decide what moves forward into Outreach.
Query opt-in, public sources — Reddit, RSS feeds, and your own CSV lists.
Your Passport project — medium, stage, genre, themes — plus your outreach intent.
Every candidate gets a transparent fit score, so the strongest signal rises first.
Keep, dismiss, or set aside. Dismissed signal is suppressed and never resurfaces.
Send the keepers into Outreach as project-aware prospects — deduped, attributed, logged.
Every decision and import is recorded — a clean governance record for the whole suite.
Pluggable, opt-in, and honest about what’s live.
Scout uses a connector-adapter model. Live sources work today; more are on the roadmap. Nothing is scraped — every source is a public or user-provided feed.

Discovery with a conscience — built in, not bolted on.
Scout is designed for a human-first suite. The tool surfaces and ranks; the person decides. Every guardrail is structural.
Opt-in, public, or user-supplied sources. No scraping, ever — and no private data.
Nothing is contacted from Scout. You keep, dismiss, and import — the AI never acts alone.
Dismiss once and it stays dismissed — suppressed signal never resurfaces, even after a prune.
Searches, decisions, and imports are logged — a governance record the whole consortium can trust.
