Field notes

It's ready. Come test it.

Short version: ScoutYourLead is built, tested and hardened, and the beta is open right now. The one thing standing between us and a wide public launch is Google finishing its review of our Gmail integration — and that doesn't stop you using it today. If you find UK local businesses for a living, this is the moment to get in.

01Where we've landed

Over the last stretch the product went from feature-complete to genuinely solid. The full workflow runs end to end — search Google Maps, enrich and verify contacts, run a website audit, get an AI read of a business's reviews, score the opportunity, send a personalised pitch from your own Gmail, and hand the prospect a white-label audit report. On top of that we did a proper security and performance pass, so it's not just working, it's dependable.

The first testers are already running real outreach through it. Now we want more.

02The one thing we're waiting on

Because ScoutYourLead sends from your real Gmail — so replies land in your real inbox and messages look human — we use Google's official Gmail API. For an app to use that at public scale, Google runs a formal verification review. Ours is in progress.

Here's the important part: this doesn't block the beta. Approved testers can connect Gmail and send today — you'll just click past a Google "this app isn't verified yet" screen once when you connect (that's expected during review, and it's your own account granting access). The verification simply removes that screen for everyone ahead of a wide public launch. Everything else — discovery, enrichment, audits, AI, the CRM — is fully live.

03How to get in

The beta is invite-approved, and getting in is quick:

That's it. No card, no call, no onboarding hoops.

04Who we especially want testing

Real feedback from real outreach is exactly what shapes the final launch — so if you kick the tyres and something feels off, tell us. It goes straight to the person building it.
