Sonny Steele, founder of ScoutAI
Built by a job seeker

I'm Sonny. I wasted 6 months applying to jobs that were never real, getting ghosted by recruiters, and re-typing the same fields into 50 different application forms. I built ScoutAI so the next person doesn't have to.

What ScoutAI does

Three things every job search needs.
Three things no other tool gives you.

Reality Score
Every listing checked against 16 signals.

Posting age, salary transparency, hiring velocity, ATS trust rating, description specificity — we score every job 0–100 before it ever hits your feed. Below 40 gets flagged. You stop applying to ghosts.

38% of postingsflagged this week
Quick Apply
Apply with the hard part already drafted.

Chrome extension fills the standard fields from your saved profile, then AI drafts the open-ended answers — "Why this company?", "Tell us about yourself" — in your voice, grounded in the job description. You review every answer. You click submit. We never auto-send.

Upload once. ScoutAI scores it against any job — keyword gaps, weak verbs, missing impact metrics, ATS issues. Then the AI rewrites the trouble spots while keeping 90% of your voice. Download as PDF or DOCX, ATS-ready.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps to your next role

Upload your resume

PDF, DOCX, or import from LinkedIn. Our AI parses your experience, skills, and career trajectory in seconds — not templates, your actual story.

02
See real jobs, scored to you

Every listing scored against 16 reality signals AND against your skills. Ghosts filtered before they hit your feed. You only review roles that are actually hiring — and that fit.

03
Fix the resume, fly through the form

AI rewrites the gaps to match each job, then Quick Apply fills the standard fields and drafts the open-ended answers ("Why this company?") in your voice. You review and submit — never auto-sent.

Cover letters that sound like you

AI learns your writing voice, preferred verbs, and impact metrics. Every cover letter matches your professional identity — not a template, your actual style.

Quick Apply with AI answers

JOB SEEKERS

Real results from real people

I was applying to 30+ jobs a week and hearing nothing back. ScoutAI showed me that nearly half were ghost listings. Once I filtered those out, I got three interviews in my first week.

The Reality Score changed everything. I stopped wasting hours on listings that were never real. Quick Apply pre-filled the forms so I could submit 12 in an hour — and I got 4 callbacks.

As a teacher looking to switch districts, I didn't have time to start every application from scratch. ScoutAI drafted cover letters that actually sounded like me — I just reviewed and submitted.
