What customers say
Less time wrangling, more time deciding
“Scout cut our category review prep time significantly and armed us with competitive insights that would not have been surfaced in our standard data review process.”
Director of Sales· Heirloom Coffee Roasters“This has shown me so many things about my stores I did not know before. Stocking a few products that were selling well in some locations and not carried at all in others has lifted our revenue by more than 2%.”
Owner, regional grocery retailer “We used to spend the week before every category review pulling numbers by hand. Now most of the deck is written before we sit down.”
Category manager, natural foods brand “I asked a question the way I would ask a person, and got the answer with the rows behind it. My team stopped waiting on me to run reports.”
VP of Sales, snack brand
