# Scout

> A second set of eyes on your whole operation.

Scout is Terrace's AI, and it has two sides. It **watches** your operation around the clock and tells you about things you'd otherwise miss, and it **works** alongside you, taking tasks off your plate when you ask. The watching is what makes it worth having.

## A second set of eyes

You can't be everywhere. Scout can. It continuously watches your inventory, orders, and customers, and flags issues **before** they turn into costly problems: the batch that's about to run short, the regular who's quietly stopped ordering, the order that doesn't look right. These are the things that don't announce themselves until it's too late, and Scout's job is to catch them early.

It's always on, and it's on your phone in the field, not just at a desk.

<Note>
  The point of a second set of eyes is the things you *didn't* think to check. Scout surfaces the patterns hiding in your data, like a slow decline, an outlier, or a gap, and puts them in front of you while there's still time to act.
</Note>

## Ask Scout anything

Scout is also a chat assistant. Ask questions about your operation in plain English and get an answer instantly, with no menus, no exports, and no digging:

* "Show me revenue this month"
* "Orders due this week"
* "Help me send an invoice"

And it doesn't just answer. Tell Scout what you want in plain language and it can:

* Create orders and plan truck loads
* Send invoices and assign drivers
* Update order statuses and log operations
* Generate revenue reports and charts

## You're always in control

Scout **drafts and recommends**, and never acts behind your back. Nothing is created, sent, or changed until you confirm it. You get the speed of an assistant with the final say on everything.

## Where to find Scout

Scout is available on every screen. Open it from **Ask Terrace** in the sidebar, or the quick-access button that follows you across the app. It works the same on your phone as on your computer.
