Scout's KD blends domain strength, intent match, and SERP freshness. Lower is easier; 30–45 is often the sweet spot for new sites.
Scout pairs with Weave (internal linking) and Optimize (on‑page) to turn topics into traffic and conversions.
| Capability | Generic | Scout |

Quick answers to common questions.
Industry-standard keyword sources plus your connected Google Search Console and Google Analytics. We combine these signals to assess difficulty, value, and clustering.
Yes—CSV (Sheets-ready). Brief exports for writers are available on higher tiers.
Add seats on team plans. Role-based access and shared projects included.
Yes—read/write endpoints for projects, keywords, clusters, and exports on the Scale plan.
Keyword reality shifts month to month. To keep plans current (and avoid stale noise), Scout refreshes datasets on a monthly cycle and automatically clears older, inactive sets. If you need a permanent snapshot, export to CSV anytime.
No. We keep workspaces lean and current by rotating out stale keyword datasets as new data arrives. Exports are yours to keep, and you can re-pull fresh data whenever you plan a new sprint.
Only what's needed for reporting (e.g., clicks, impressions, sessions, conversions). Disconnect anytime; syncing stops and associated data is removed during the next refresh.
Competition (%): quick difficulty snapshot. Competition Index (0–100): calibrated effort score Scout uses for prioritization across clusters.
Scout groups semantically related queries and scores each cluster using Volume, DA, Competition, Competition Index, and CPC High (with volume/CPC normalized). The spider-web visual makes strong clusters obvious.
Yes—bulk CSV import. You can then evaluate and cluster them with the same metrics.
No. We focus on decisive signals that drive action now. Trends often lag or mislead; monthly refresh + clear metrics keeps plans realistic.
One keyword analyzed or added to your results typically equals one credit. (Bulk imports consume credits per row processed.)
Global coverage with common locales. If you need a specific market/language mix, tell us your priority and we'll confirm support.
Yes—export CSV for sheets, and share brief-ready lists. Read-only share links are available on team plans.
Project data stays within your account, used only to provide the service. We don't sell data. You control integrations and exports, and we regularly clear stale datasets to minimize retention.
Currently, clustering works with only three languages: English, Spanish, and French. More languages will be added based on demand.
