FOR DESIGNERS
Build ads with the specs, assets, and proof notes in reach.
AccountScout gives designers the order context, advertiser assets, proof feedback, and InDesign-side tools they need to build ads without scavenger hunts.

The problem
Design work gets messy when creative context is scattered.
Assets, notes, old ads, and specs are buried in email or shared drives.
Proof changes arrive without a clean history of what changed and who approved it.
Designers have to jump between systems before they can start real production work.
THE END OF THE SCAVENGER HUNT
The logo is on the account, not in an email from two years ago.
Logos, product photography, and prior creative live against the advertiser. The current approved file is the one that opens — not the newest attachment, and not a guess at which version on the shared drive was the final one.
- Assets attach to the advertiser, so the approved version is found first
- A repeat or pickup insertion reuses the real file instead of a rebuild
- At renewal the artwork is already there, so nobody asks the client again
