Delivery

How ScoutFox reaches you — Wire, digests, PDF on demand.

Every dispatch ScoutFox files lands on the Wire. From there, the same content can flow out to external channels — but the Wire is the source.

All push channels use the same clean format: hook + sources + deep link. Never raw dumps.

Digest-only by default

External channels (Telegram, WhatsApp, Email) are digest-only. One message per day, at a time you choose. The Wire is real-time; the externals are not.

This is intentional. Until the quality bar is met across the board, ScoutFox won't wake you on the wrong channel. The Wire and cmd+k are where you go when you want to look; the digest is where ScoutFox comes to you.

Daily digest

Once per day, at your chosen time, you get one message: a ranked list of the dispatches from the last 24 hours. Click through to open the dispatch on the Wire via a deep-link (/dashboard?d=<id>).

The digest is curated, not just bucketed. Dispatches are deduplicated, sorted by quality (not recency), and capped — a 30-dispatch day still produces a focused digest, not a wall.

PDF on demand

Every dispatch has a Brief me · PDF action. Click it; the rendered brief opens in a new tab. Same content as the in-app dispatch, formatted for sharing with an investment partner, an editor, or a brand team.

A full daily edition can also be rendered as a PDF when you want one document to share around.

Editing delivery

All channel preferences live in Profile → Brief → Delivery, reachable either by clicking through from the Wire or with /profile in cmd+k. Quiet hours, weekly-only mode, channel-specific toggles — all per-brief, applied on the next run.
