Use Scout from anywhere with the slide-in panel

ToolsUpdated Mar 29, 2026~1 min read

Scout is available as a persistent panel that slides in from the right side of the screen. You can open it from any page in Orbit.

Open Scout:

  • Press Cmd+J (or Ctrl+J on Windows) from anywhere
  • Or click the sparkle icon in the top navigation bar

What Scout can do:

Scout has write access to your CRM. You can ask it to:

  • Save a job : "Track a Senior Engineer role at Stripe"
  • Update status : "Move my Google application to interviewing"
  • Add a contact : "Add Sarah Chen as a hiring manager at Acme"
  • Log activity : "I just sent a follow-up email to Stripe"
  • Search your pipeline : "Show me all my interviewing jobs"
  • Find contacts : "Who do I know at Google?"

When Scout takes an action, you see a green confirmation badge showing exactly what changed. Your local data syncs automatically.

Quick prompts:

When you first open Scout, you will see suggestion chips for common tasks: Daily Focus, Pipeline Review, Interview Prep, and Resume Help. Click any chip to get started instantly.

Requirements:

  • Pro or Ultra plan
  • AI API key configured in Settings

Tip: Scout reads your current page context. If you are viewing a specific job, Scout already knows which company and role you are looking at.
