Use the instant guide or switch to on-device AI for more advanced help. Your conversation isn’t sent to ARforEarth or an AI service. Scout uses the same model as 3.1 Terra—no separate download if it is already saved in this browser.
Scout tailors guidance to what you share in this chat. It does not read your account or shortlist, browse live vacancies, submit applications or guarantee eligibility. Account saving in your workspace is separate.
