Common Questions

The questions we hear most, answered before you have to ask.

What is Scout?

Scout is an AI job search agent. It sweeps job boards and company career pages every night, reads each posting in full, scores every job against what you want, and drafts a tailored résumé and cover letter for the roles worth chasing.

How does Scout score jobs?

Every matched posting is scored on nine weighted dimensions across fit (can you do this job) and desire (do you want it). You control the weights, and every subscore comes with a plain-sentence reason you can check.

Does Scout apply to jobs for me?

No. Scout drafts the résumé, the cover letter, and application answers; you review and send every application yourself. Scout never applies without you.

Where do the postings come from?

Job boards, applicant tracking systems, and company career pages, swept nightly. Duplicates collapse into one, Scout turns away aggregator reposts and retires dead links before they waste a click.

What is the career knowledge base?

Everything you have told Scout about your career: accomplishments, skills, and numbers, not just what fit on your last résumé. Scout drafts your tailored documents from it, so the more you add, the better every draft gets.

How many jobs can I apply to?

As many as your plan writes for: 5 a month on Free, 50 on Pro, 250 on Max. Each one buys a résumé and a cover letter written for that specific posting, and that job stays yours, so redrafting it later never costs again.

What do I get without paying?

Scout reads and ranks every job that matches you, every night, and scores every résumé it writes against the posting before you send it. Free covers five fully tailored applications a month, forever.

What does Scout cost?

Free forever with 5 tailored résumés and cover letters a month. Pro is $19 a month with 50. Max, the most popular plan, is $29 a month with 250 and your own writing rules. The full table is on Pricing.

Is there a student plan?

Yes. Students get Pro-level limits free through junior and senior year plus a year after graduation. Write to students@scoutfindsjobs.com from a school address.

Does Scout sell my data?

No. Scout does not sell, rent, or resell your data to anyone, does not share your résumé with employers or recruiters, and does not use your data to train AI models. The Privacy Policy says it in writing.

What is ATS match scoring?

Every résumé Scout drafts is scored against the job description the way an applicant tracking system reads it: matched keywords, missing skills, and a match percentage, so you see how the résumé scans before an employer’s software does. It is free on every plan.
