Scout isn't a bolt-on chatbot. It's woven directly into the ActiveIQ platform you already use for account intelligence and pipeline visibility, working alongside EnergyIQ, AdCONNECT™, and ActiveIntelligence to make every signal actionable. Ask real questions and Scout answers using your live ActiveIQ data. It shows its work, and it pauses for your approval before anything changes.
Scout doesn't just tell you what happened. It tells you what to do next and why it matters to your pipeline.
Accessing Scout
Scout is available directly within your ActiveIQ platform, wherever you're already working. No separate login or setup is required.
How It Works
Scout continuously scans intent data, account activity, and industry events, including M&A moves, capex announcements, rig counts, and regulatory filings, and ranks them by revenue relevance to your book of business.
No more guessing which account to touch today. Scout recommends who to call, what to say, and why now, grounded in real account intelligence rather than a generic lead score.
Scout generates first-draft emails and call prep notes tailored to each account's specific situation, whether that's a new acquisition, a leadership change, or a budget cycle, so they're ready for your rep to refine and send.
By tracking real account engagement and market signals against pipeline stage, Scout flags deals that are stalling before they slip, giving VPs of Sales the forecast accuracy spreadsheets can't match.
Unlike horizontal AI tools bolted onto a generic CRM, Scout is trained on the vocabulary, buying cycles, and procurement dynamics of energy services, industrial equipment, and manufacturing. Its recommendations are relevant on day one, not after months of tuning.

What Scout Can't Do Yet
- Sales targets or quota versus actual: No target field is stored, so Scout offers actuals instead.
- Customer lifetime value, margin, or profit: Deal value is tracked, but cost and historical revenue aren't.
- Sending or scheduling email: By design, Scout drafts the message and a human presses send.
- Deleting, merging, or unsubscribing: These actions are deliberately off-limits to the assistant.
- Long, multi-step funnels: Two-page journeys work well today; sequences of three or more steps are on the roadmap.
When Scout hits a wall, it tells you and offers the closest real answer it can.
How We Suggest You Use It
Start your day by asking Scout what's on your plate and which accounts need attention first. Let it do the scanning across intent data, filings, and account activity, so your team spends its time on outreach, not research.
Get is to pull relevant data and contacts from EnergyIQ and Energy Directory. To start directly reaching out to new opportunities.
Use Scout's draft emails and call prep notes as a starting point, not a finished product. Add your own voice and account knowledge before sending.
Treat Scout's approval prompts as a built-in checkpoint. They exist so your team stays in control of what gets added, changed, or sent, even as Scout does the heavy lifting.
Encourage your reps to ask follow-up questions the way they would in a conversation. Scout is built to handle plain language, not rigid commands, so the more naturally your team asks, the more useful it becomes.
