Scouted.
A recruiting organizer, for their pocket.

Your kid's
recruiting shouldn't live
in a Notes app.

College recruiting means coach emails, camp invites, "keep in touch" replies, half-remembered visit dates, and screenshots that live in the camera roll forever. Scouted puts every school, every conversation, and every decision in one place. Home opens on what coaches can do right now and one next move, not a wall of cards. Your athlete can focus on their game.

What coaches can do

Know what coaches
can do right now.

Home opens on your sport's NCAA period: what college coaches can do today, until when, and what comes next. Younger athletes see the date coaches can first call or text them instead. It depends on sport, division and graduation year, and Scouted works it out for you.

Scouted Home on Oct 15, 2026: D1 basketball is in an evaluation period from Oct 1 to Dec 23, next a dead period Dec 24 to 26, with the athlete's next move below

The period card The window you're in, its dates, what it means, and what comes next. Tap Full year for the whole season.

The periods, plain English
  • Contact period Coaches can meet you in person, on or off their campus, and watch you compete.
  • Evaluation period Coaches can watch you play and check your academics, but they can't talk with you in person off their campus.
  • Quiet period Coaches can meet you in person only on their own campus, so a campus visit works. They can't come to your games or your home.
  • Dead period No in-person recruiting anywhere and no campus visits. Calls, texts and email are still allowed.
  • Recruiting shutdown Nothing at all: no visits, no evaluations, and no calls, texts or emails in either direction. Only some sports have these.
Worth knowing

You can email coaches at any time. These rules limit what they can do, so a dead period is no reason to go quiet.

D1 & D2 windows loaded D3, NAIA, and JUCO have no NCAA recruiting calendar, so Scouted shows them as open rather than inventing restrictions. Scouted also lets you know the day before a period changes.

Your first coach email

Write your first
coach email in a minute.

Add a school and Scouted drafts the intro email from your recruiting profile: name, class, position, high school, GPA and film link. When you say you sent it, Scouted reminds you to follow up two weeks later if the coach hasn't answered.

  • No coach email on file? Scouted links the school's staff page.
  • Not ready yet? Save for later turns the draft into a follow-up for tomorrow.

Your first call

Walk into your
first call ready.

Every school gets a first-call cheat sheet: six starter questions built from your athlete's sport, class and position, with room for their own. Suggest more adds questions drawn from what that school has already said. Afterward, the debrief asks one thing: how'd it go?

№ 00 · A LETTER
From the founder A dad, a vacation text, and a '27 baseball kid
To the other adult in the passenger seat,

Scouted started on a family vacation.

We were somewhere on a family vacation when my son got a text from our recruiting advisor. He'd sent my son's video to a college coach, and the coach wanted to schedule a call.

It was the first of what we both hoped would be many recruiting moments. My second thought, after the high-five, was: how is he going to keep track of this?

My son is, like every kid his age, completely certain he can hold it all in his head. The names of the coaches. Who said what at which camp. When to follow up with whom. What film he sent and when. Every parent of a teenager knows how that sentence ends.

So my instinct was the same as everyone else's. I started thinking through a shared Google sheet. Maybe an Apple note. Some columns: school, coach, last contact, next step. The same thing every recruiting family builds, or tries to.

And then, being a software developer by day, I knew it wouldn't scale. A spreadsheet doesn't text him the morning of a camp deposit. A Notes doc doesn't notice when a coach has gone quiet. Neither helps much when the list grows from four schools to twenty.

What if, I thought, all of this lived in one place, and the place was smart enough to read the conversation back to him? "Hey, the coach mentioned a camp in that text. Want to add a reminder to sign up?" Or: "Here's a one-line read on where you stand with this program, refreshed every time something new happens." Or: "Here are the questions to ask on your first call with this coach, so you're not making them up at 11 p.m. the night before."

That's the app I wished my son had. So I built it.

Families in every sport run into this. Every high school athlete trying to play at the next level, and every parent helping them get there, is fighting the same losing battle with sticky notes and browser tabs.

If any of that sounds like your family, I hope you'll download it and send the link down the hall.
