Turn a relevant lead into a considered email.
Your Agentic Coworker finds and vets social media leads. Keep the original conversation beside your message, then send an individually reviewed email through your connected Gmail account. Less rebuilding context between tabs. More attention to what you want to say.
Every feature and all seven platforms. No credit card required.
You approve and queue each email. Manage replies and bounces in Gmail.
Your message.
Your exact go-ahead.
Inspect a fictional email. These controls change the illustration only. They never approve, queue or send a real message.
Read this exact version.
Check the recipient, sender, subject, full message, timing and provider-cost ceiling together.
- Timing
- Immediate, after queueing
- Provider-cost ceiling
- $0.50 maximum (example)
- Fresh address check
- 30 credits when due
A chosen provider-cost ceiling, not an additional customer price.
Prepared for reviewA fictional walkthrough, not a live mailbox or sending receipt.
How do I connect my Gmail mailbox?
Open Connections, choose Gmail, name the connection and select its brands. Connect Google, then confirm the verified sending mailbox shown in Scout. Connecting the account does not queue an email.
Scout requests Google identity and email details plus send-only Gmail access. You manage replies and bounces in Gmail. Choose the brand and sending account deliberately when you work across several businesses.
What do I review before an email can send?
Check the recipient, sending mailbox, subject, complete message, timing and provider-cost ceiling. The brand owner approves that exact version, then chooses Queue approved email as a separate action.
Send immediately after queueing or choose a scheduled time with its time zone. If the message or relevant context changes, or approval expires, review the current version again. Each later email needs its own approval.
What if the lead has no supported email address?
Return to the original conversation and choose a prepared social reply when that is the useful next step. Scout keeps that source context available, so email is a choice within your prospecting work.
Optional profile lookups can add source-bound context. They do not guarantee an email address or permission to contact someone. A Gmail email needs a supported recipient address and a fresh address check before sending.
One email. Clear decisions.
Read the message and its costs together. Saving a draft, approving a version and queueing an email are distinct steps.
Up to 30 credits for one email’s check
Each due email needs a new address check. Preparing and approving use no credits. Reading saved results is free; an earlier check does not replace the fresh check for sending.
Set the cost ceiling for this email
Review the ceiling alongside the message. It covers provider work for this email, including its address check. It is not an additional customer price.
Approve this message, then queue it
Approval records the exact content and details. Queue approved email separately authorizes sending or scheduling. Your next email gets its own review.
Know what happened.
Know what to do next.
Scout keeps the email’s saved state visible. Check replies and bounces in Gmail, where your conversation continues.
Open your connectionsPending
The email is queued. Gmail has not confirmed acceptance. Check the existing email status before preparing another.
Provider accepted
Gmail accepted the email. This does not confirm delivery or a reply. Continue checking the conversation in Gmail.
Sending uncertain
Check the email in Gmail Sent. Scout will not retry it automatically. After checking, the brand owner can record sent or not sent as their observed outcome.
Stopped or held
Inspect the reason and current mailbox, recipient, review and credits. Cancel pending work when needed. Reconnecting does not restart cancelled email, and accepted email cannot be recalled.
Before you start.
Answers to help you decide and take the next step.
Does connecting Gmail start sending emails?
No. Connecting verifies your sending account. Prepare an individual email, review its recipient, subject, message, timing and provider-cost ceiling, approve the exact version, then separately queue it.
Who can approve, queue or stop a connected email?
The brand owner approves, queues or stops connected email. Work stays tied to the selected brand, lead and sending mailbox. Check that context before approving a message.
Which Google account sends the email?
The verified mailbox shown on your selected Gmail connection. Confirm it after Google sign-in and check the sender again in the email review, especially when you manage several brands or accounts.
Can I schedule an individual email?
Yes. Review the scheduled time and its time zone, or choose immediate sending after a separate queue action. Approval applies to that exact email and its details. Changed content or context needs current review.
What uses credits in the Gmail workflow?
Each due email needs a new recipient-address check at 30 credits. Preparing and approving use no credits. Reading saved results is free. A previous address check does not replace the fresh check required for sending. Review available credits and the email’s provider-cost ceiling before queueing.
Is the provider-cost ceiling another customer charge?
No. It sets the maximum cost allowed for the email’s provider work, including its address check. It is separate from the displayed customer credit cost. A zero ceiling cannot cover a new address check; review a positive ceiling before queueing.
Does Scout read my inbox or send automated follow-ups?
Gmail access is send-only. Manage replies and bounces in Gmail. Every later email requires its own review, approval and queue action. Social replies remain a separate workflow that you review, edit and post yourself.
Does Pending mean the email was sent?
No. Pending means work is queued, not that Gmail accepted the email. Provider accepted records Gmail’s acceptance, which does not confirm delivery. Check the specific saved state before deciding what to do next.
What should I do if sending is uncertain?
Check the email in Gmail Sent before preparing another message. Scout does not retry an uncertain send automatically. After checking Gmail, the brand owner can record the email as sent or not sent. That is your observation, distinct from a provider receipt or proof of delivery.
Can I cancel an email or disconnect Gmail?
Stop pending email work or disconnect the mailbox in Connections. An email already accepted by Gmail cannot be recalled. Reconnecting does not restart a cancelled email. Manage replies and bounces in Gmail.
Give Scout the prospecting. Keep the email personal.
Start with social media lead discovery. Connect Gmail when you are ready to review and queue an individual email from your own account.
