Briefings & Signals

Scout watches every client, every day - so the account manager doesn’t have to.

Two quiet jobs running in the background. A short morning email per client, so the account manager walks in already briefed. Real-time signals when something breaks, so nothing’s a surprise from a client at 5pm.

Morning email, per client

Yesterday in three lines. Before you open Slack.

Lands in the account manager’s inbox before they open client email. Headline metrics, what changed versus the prior period, anything Scout flagged overnight.

Cadence is per-client - daily, weekly, or off. Different clients need different rhythms; Scout doesn’t pretend they’re the same.

Real-time alerts

Quiet by default. Loud when it matters.

Scout fires a signal when something genuinely needs attention. Meta account unsettled. ROAS below the client-defined target. Klaviyo flow paused. Sync stale for more than 24 hours. Anomalies in revenue or spend versus the rolling baseline.

Each signal can be snoozed, resolved, or escalated to Claude for a deeper read. Nothing fires twice for the same issue without it materially changing.

Not a notification firehose

Thresholds you control. Defaults that respect your time.

Out of the box, signals fire on the things that would page a thoughtful account manager.
Tighten thresholds per client when a sensitive account needs it.
Loosen them when a client is in a deliberately volatile phase (a launch, a sale).

Signals are an alarm system, not a metrics feed. If they’re firing all day, we’ve done something wrong.

FAQ

Common questions about briefings & signals.

How often do briefings send?

Per client, on a cadence you set - daily, weekly, or off. Different clients need different rhythms, so Scout doesn’t force one schedule on all of them.

Will signals turn into notification spam?

No. Signals are quiet by default and fire only on things that would page a thoughtful account manager. Nothing fires twice for the same issue unless it materially changes.

What actually triggers a signal?

Meta account unsettled, ROAS below the client’s target, a paused Klaviyo flow, a sync stale for 24h+, or revenue/spend anomalies versus the rolling baseline.

Can I tune or snooze them?

Yes. Tighten thresholds for a sensitive account, loosen them during a launch, and snooze, resolve, or escalate any signal to Claude for a deeper read.
