Partner with Scout Places
Get discovered by people already deciding where to go.
Scout Places connects local businesses with people actively planning date nights, family outings, weekend trips, visitor itineraries, and things to do nearby. Through AI-powered recommendations, curated local guides, and targeted discovery campaigns, we help send interested visitors to your website, booking page, menu, event, or profile.
What we help you do
Turn local discovery into measurable traffic.
Scout helps partners:
- Get recommended in relevant local planning moments
- Appear in city guides, collections, and AI-generated itineraries
- Reach locals and visitors already exploring your area
- Drive clicks to your website, booking page, menu, or event
- Understand which placements and audiences are creating interest
AI-powered local recommendations
AI-powered recommendations that match real intent.
When someone asks Scout to plan a Scottsdale date night, Phoenix family outing, visitor weekend, or indoor day when it’s hot, Scout uses approved local inventory to build useful plans. Approved partners can become eligible to appear when they match the user’s location, budget, group type, timing, and vibe.
That means your business is not just listed. It can be recommended in the moment someone is deciding what to do next.
