Terms of service

These terms apply when you use Scouter, whether as a visitor or with an account. They are short because the service is: an index of job postings published elsewhere, a set of measurements about that index, and tools that help you choose and prepare applications. Last updated 17 October 2026.

What the service is

Scouter collects open hi-tech and AI job postings in Israel from job boards, recruitment agencies and employers' own careers pages, and lets you search them. Every listing links to the original posting. Scouter is not an employer, a recruitment agency or a party to any hiring: it takes no application and forwards nothing to an employer. If you upload a CV, it is used only inside your own account, to score jobs for you and help you prepare an application; it is never sent to an employer or shown to anyone else. Applying, and everything that follows, happens between you and the employer on the employer's own terms.

Listings and their accuracy

Listings are collected automatically and republished as found. Some will be wrong or out of date: a role already filled, a location mis-read, a title that means something else at that company. Scouter does not verify a posting with the employer and makes no promise that any listing is accurate, current or genuine. Check the details on the employer's own page before you act on them.

A listing stays on the site for at most 60 days after it was found and is then deleted; its address answers "gone" afterwards rather than showing stale content. An employer or job board can ask for a posting to be corrected or removed at any time through the contact page.

Your account

You may create an account with an email address you control. Keep your password to yourself; what is done with your account is treated as done by you. One account per person.

You can delete your account at any time from Settings, which removes it together with your preferences, saved jobs, messages, CVs and any drafts prepared from them. Scouter may suspend or remove an account that is used to abuse the service, to scrape it, or to send unwanted email through it.

Signing in with Google

You can create an account or sign in with your Google account instead of a password. Scouter then receives your name, your email address, Google's confirmation that the address is verified and an identifier for your Google account — nothing else: no contacts, no email, no files. If an account with the same verified address already exists, signing in with Google opens that account. Google's own terms also apply to the sign-in itself.

CV matching

If you upload a CV, Scouter reads the skills, experience level, languages and roles in it and uses them to score how well each job fits you, to show what a job asks for that your CV does not mention, and to suggest which of your CV versions suits each job best. Reading the CV is done by an AI model; the scores are then calculated by Scouter. They are automatic estimates, not advice: they can miss what an employer actually cares about, and a low score is not a reason not to apply. No employer sees your CV, your scores or the suggestions.

Upload only your own CV. You can review and correct what was read from it before it is used, and delete it at any time. The number of CV versions and uploads per account is limited.

AI-written drafts

The tailoring feature uses an AI model to rewrite your CV and draft a cover letter for one specific job, using only the CV you uploaded and that job's posting. It is instructed never to add an employer, a title, a date, a qualification or a number that is not in your CV, but the result is still a draft: it can contain mistakes, leave out something that matters or describe your experience in a way you would not. Read every draft before you use it. What you send to an employer is your decision and your responsibility, and it must be true.

Tailoring is limited per day and per month for each account, and may be paused for everyone for the rest of a month if the budget set for it is used up. Scouter does not promise that a draft will lead to an interview or an offer.

Acceptable use

Use the site as a person looking for, or hiring for, a job. Do not copy the index in bulk, crawl it faster than a person could read it, work around the rate of the feed and the public pages, probe it for weaknesses, or use it to send unsolicited messages. Do not misrepresent who you are when you write to us or post on behalf of an employer.

Do not upload someone else's CV, use the CV features to produce documents for other people or in bulk, open extra accounts to get around their limits, or try to make the AI produce anything other than your own CV and cover letter.

Content and rights

Each job posting belongs to the employer or job board that published it, and appears here under their terms. The index itself — the site, its search, its text and the hiring measurements — belongs to Scouter.

The market figures Scouter publishes are released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence: you may quote and reuse them, including commercially, if you credit Scouter and link to the page they came from. The listings themselves are not covered by that licence.

Your CV and drafts are yours

Your CV, and any draft prepared from it for you, remain yours. Scouter uses them only to provide the features you asked for, does not publish them, and does not use them to train any AI model.

Email

Scouter emails you only when you asked it to: a daily digest or an alert you subscribed to, and the messages needed to run your account, such as confirming your address before your first tailored draft, or resetting your password. Every digest and alert carries an unsubscribe link that works without signing in.

Availability and changes

The service is provided as it is, free of charge, and may change or stop at any time. It is run on a best-effort basis with no promise of uninterrupted availability. Features, the sources collected and these terms may change; the current terms are always the ones on this page, and the date at the top says when they last did.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, Scouter is not liable for loss or damage arising from the use of the site, from reliance on a listing or a figure published here, or from anything that happens between you and an employer. Nothing in these terms limits a liability that cannot be limited by law.

Privacy

What Scouter stores about you, why, and for how long is set out on the privacy page, which forms part of these terms.

Law and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, and any dispute about them is for the competent courts in Israel. Questions about these terms, and any other request, go through the contact page.
