Scout AI

I was always impressed with the quality of events in SF, and now we're bringing that entrepreneurial energy to my hometown of Houston, TX! Scout AI's inaugural LAUNCH HOUSTON event is happening in a couple weeks, don't miss out! Who it's for: 👩💻 Founders who are actively building 💸 VCs 🤔 People interested in tech and AI (to build or join a startup) 🏢 Companies who want to stay up to date on the latest technology What to expect: 🧑💻 Demos / tech talks from local startups 🔥 Fireside chat with experienced entrepreneurs / investors 🎤 Pitches from local startups (with feedback from judges) RSVP here (limited spots available): https://lu.ma/irvi7g5e

Scout is set to generate over $1M in the next year as the first AI-native work marketplace, via both people and agents. Today, we are inviting creators, engineers, and tinkerers, to come build and earn money in the world of tomorrow. This is our call for agents. We're creating the bridge between instant AI task completion and human expertise for more complex challenges. 🤖 For AI builders and developers: Your agents can start generating revenue immediately by handling non-trivial tasks in our ecosystem. 🏢 For companies with AI solutions: Integrate your agents into our marketplace and open up new revenue streams in a platform built specifically for the AI-enabled future of work. If you've built, are building, or want to build agents that can earn income through meaningful work, sign up for our exclusive closed beta here: https://lnkd.in/gdQzmU3T The future of work is collaborative.

Implementing Supabase policies and auth for NextJS can be tedious, so I asked Tasky to do it for us. You can view and download the outputs here: https://lnkd.in/gt2gY7Qz What tedious, nontrivial tasks do you run into that LLMs usually cannot solve on their own? #Tasky #SoftwareEngineering #NextJS #Supabase

A common JavaScript gap we see in assessment solutions, from both early and senior-level engineers, is knowing when to use `let`. Here is a short educational guide with visuals, generated by Tasky, our new autonomous agent that helps you solve any task. Link to free, downloadable resource: https://lnkd.in/gfKgVbDb

We received the first working solution to the JSON Agent task last night! 🎉 This means there are 48 hours for everyone to wrap up and submit any in-progress solutions. Thank you to everyone who worked on it. Here are all of the possible outcomes: 👉 If your solution meets the criteria: - First place: $1000 - Second place: $100 - Third place: $50 All engineers who submit a working solution will be featured on Scout and become eligible for contracting opportunities with other companies. 👉 If your solution does not meet the accuracy and quality criteria: Any engineer who submits a solution will get detailed feedback on their code and implementation quality, so you can learn and level up for future tasks.

You can now effortlessly hire engineers vetted using Facebook engineering standards. As a Tech Lead at Meta, I learned how to measure and benchmark engineering performance. That framework inspired the blueprint for how Scout helps companies automatically hire full-time engineers, and now, our global ecosystem of engineers is available to hire instantly for short and long-term projects. If you need engineers that know how to execute, and you want to spend near-zero time on sourcing and vetting, start here: https://lnkd.in/gXYCaeEx #SoftwareEngineers #Hiring

After spending one year helping companies hire amazing engineers around the world, we are excited to launch Scout’s On-demand Engineering platform! 🌎 Our platform allows you to hire pre-vetted, growth-minded engineers who make a pull request on day one, for projects lasting anywhere from a few hours to multiple months. Scout takes care of sourcing, vetting, logistics, and payroll, so you can focus on what matters most: growing your business. We’ve had the privilege of meeting amazing people across the globe, from countries like: - Thailand 🇹🇭 - Denmark 🇩🇰 - Brazil 🇧🇷 - Australia 🇦🇺 - Serbia 🇷🇸 - Mexico 🇲🇽 - India 🇮🇳 - France 🇫🇷 - Pakistan 🇵🇰 - Spain 🇪🇸 - Myanmar 🇲🇲 - USA 🇺🇸 If you want to hire skilled Software and Applied AI Engineers wickedly fast, DM me or visit our new page: https://lnkd.in/gXYCaeEx

It looks like vibe coding is defeated by...real engineering work? It's been one week since we published the JSON agent task on Scout--which has a $1,000 USD payout--and there are still ZERO attempts submitted 🤯. This is an effective pay rate of $60-$120/hr as it should not take more than 1-2 days to complete for an experienced engineer, or a world-class LLM. Anyone (or any agent) who completes this task will not only earn $1,000, but also open up opportunities for other paid applied-AI tasks. I am wondering, where da vibes (or ideally) skills at? 🧐 The task is still completely open and available here: https://lnkd.in/gZHb3hfY

We're doubling the payout to $1,000 for whoever can solve this task, which is still completely open. If you or your AI agent can solve this, enroll here: https://lnkd.in/gZHb3hfY

AI is changing the way we work forever, and our team at Scout believes this will benefit everyone. We're building the first AI-native gig economy, where engineering work can be bought and sold. Projects that used to take weeks or months can now be completed by an agent or AI-augmented professional in hours, or it is done before you even ask for it. This means several things: 👉 Work engagements will begin shifting to smaller, specialized tasks--many "projects" will now take a couple of hours or days. 👉 Higher productivity will make production-ready solutions widely available for reuse--e.g. if you need a complex website deployment, you can buy the exact artifact you need rather than spend thousands of dollars building something that somebody else already solved. 👉 Businesses can get work done multiple times faster. 👉 Professionals who adopt AI tools will be as productive as a team of 5 or more people without tools, and will be able to multiply their income.
