How Scout works.

Scout sits between licensed real estate agents and the AI assistants your next buyer is already using. No app, no subscription — a pin and a protocol.

The five-step flow

  1. 1

    A licensed agent drops a pin

    Takes ~2 minutes. Name, license number, territory, availability. We verify the license against the state real estate commission (SC LLR, GA REC) before the pin goes live on Scout. No fake profiles. No paid placement.

  2. 2

    A buyer asks an AI assistant for help

    Your next client opens Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP-aware AI and asks something like “find me a good real estate agent in Charleston.”

  3. 3

    The AI calls Scout

    The AI has Scout’s public MCP server registered as a tool. It invokes scout.find_agent with the city and filters. Scout returns verified-active agents ranked by proximity, availability, and freshness.

  4. 4

    The AI presents the agent in natural language

    “Jane Doe, 12 years in Mount Pleasant, 3-minute average response time, available now. Licensed SC broker.” The buyer decides.

  5. 5

    The consumer reaches the agent directly

    If the buyer wants to be introduced, the AI calls scout.route_lead. The intro goes straight to the agent’s inbox. Scout doesn’t take a cut of the agent’s closing — the directory is free for agents, funded by AI platforms and prop-tech licensees.

The protocol

MCP — Model Context Protocol.

Scout speaks MCP, an open standard Anthropic introduced in 2024 and that Claude, Cursor, Copilot, and a growing list of AI assistants already speak. Scout is in the official MCP Registry as io.github.Flikah/scout-mcp.

Agents don’t need to know any of this. Scout handles the protocol; you handle the showings.
