# February 2025

This month, we're making research faster and easier—boost collaboration and simplify your setup.

## What's new?

### MANAGE

* ### Introducing question banks

  Building research projects just got easier! With [question banks](https://help.dscout.com/hc/en-us/articles/32198835510420), you can **save, organize, and reuse** your most effective questions (and answer options) in one convenient place. No more starting from scratch—now, you and your team can focus on insights, not setup.

  #### Why use question banks?

  * **Save time** – Quickly pull in your best questions when creating Express or Recruit missions.
  * **Ensure consistency** – Standardize the questions that drive reliable insights across projects.
  * **Enable collaboration** – Share vetted questions with your team to build a collective library of go-to research questions.

  Whether you're running a quick study or building a complex research project, question banks help you work faster and more efficiently.

  *Available in Plus and above plans.*

# 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 dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

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

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
