# August 2025

*This month, we’re making it easier to connect with the right participants, fresh looks, and new ways to stay in the know—without ever leaving Dscout.*

## What's new?

### Meet Dscout Partner Panels

With **Partner Panels**, you can now access over **3 million global participants** right from Dscout. Our first integration, with **Respondent**, makes it easy to reach niche, specialized, B2B, or international audiences without leaving the platform. Screen, select, and launch—all in Dscout—with faster recruiting, more inclusive representation, and the same trusted participant management tools you know.

### New homepage look and feel

We’ve given Dscout’s homepage (and more!) a major glow-up. The new design makes it easier to find what you need, faster: your most recent studies, pinned projects right at the top, and a cleaner project page that clearly separates missions, screeners, and stats. Plus, a streamlined left-hand nav and simpler terms like *Interviews* and *Usability test* mean less hunting, more doing.

### News and Resources in the sidebar

No more chasing pop-ups you accidentally closed or missed announcements. The new **News & Resources** section—now in your platform’s left-hand sidebar—puts product updates, educational content, and upcoming Dscout events right at your fingertips.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.dscout.com/product-updates/2025/august-2025.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
