With the Dscout MCP, you can build, field, and analyze studies without ever having to leave your AI workflow. Connect your Dscout account to tools like Claude, ChatGPT, Figma Make, and more so you can spend less time context-switching and more time finding insights.

For more information, see [Dscout MCP](/dscout-ai/dscout-mcp.md).

The Dscout MCP is available as part of the Dscout AI add-on. Reach out to your Dscout Account Director for more information.

## A refreshed look for AI moderated study sessions

Participants in AI moderated studies now see an updated session experience, including a single, unified toolbar, a clearer output panel, and a live voice waveform so they can see their voice being picked up as they talk.

For more information, see [AI moderated studies](https://help.dscout.com/dscout-ai/dscout-ai-studio/ai-moderated-studies).

#### **Other improvements**

* Card sort responses now export with a full transcript of the task, the same way other question types already do.
  {% endupdate %}

{% update date="2026-08-03" tags="improvement" %}

## Exported transcripts now keep your corrections

When you correct a word in an interview session transcript, your exports now use that corrected version instead of the original transcription, keeping exported transcripts consistent with the edits you made in Dscout.

For more information, see [Export data from an interview study](https://help.dscout.com/interview-studies/view-interview-session-recordings/export-data-from-an-interview-study).

# 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/2026/readme-1.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.
