Create a Scout account

Dscout is the place where researchers and designers come to find people just like you who are ready and willing to share your opinions on topics you know best. Whether it’s sharing your experience buying stuff online or providing feedback on a new app design, your voice is the one that matters most around here. But to make sure it’s heard, you’ll first need to create an account.

Note: To create a Dscout account, you must be 13 years old (in the United States) or 16 years old (in Europe). If you’re under 18, you must have your parent or guardian’s permission to create an account regardless of your location.
