Meet SCOUT: Helping make sense of UC Merced.
UC Merced knowledge lives across websites, documents, services, systems, and people. The answer you need is usually here somewhere… finding it is often the hard part.
SCOUT is UC Merced’s AI assistant, grounded in university knowledge and built to help make sense of it.
Ask SCOUT to help you:
- Find what you need: Policies, procedures, forms, services, and other university resources.
- Make sense of it: Bring together information from across UC Merced into answers that are easier to understand and act on.
- Get something done: Draft a communication, summarize information, explore an idea, or figure out what comes next.
Help us build what comes next!
We’re beginning with Early Access for faculty and staff while SCOUT continues to learn, improve, and expand. Complete the linked form below to be added to a waitlist and you'll be contacted directly when you have been added.
Put SCOUT to work on the questions and tasks you encounter every day. Your experience will help us understand what’s useful, what needs work, and where SCOUT should go next.
