Problem
Professionals spend excessive time searching multiple platforms to find niche industry events that match their specific role, interests, and networking goals, often missing relevant opportunities or having to manually coordinate introductions.
Solution
Scouty is an AI‑powered event assistant that continuously scans the web for industry gatherings and delivers personalized recommendations via WhatsApp. Users start a conversation by scanning a QR code with their phone camera, after which Scouty asks about their role, interests, and target accounts. The AI matches these inputs to curated event listings—including small mixers, conferences, and invite‑only dinners—and provides details such as date, attendee profile, and ticket price. When a warm introduction is needed, Scouty can draft outreach messages to relevant contacts. All interactions happen in a familiar messaging interface, eliminating the need to browse multiple event sites.
Target Audience
Scouty serves professionals who need targeted event discovery and networking, such as founders, sales leaders, marketers, engineers, and partnership managers across technology, biotech, finance, and other niche industries.
