Using Skautik

Six pages, roughly in the order you will need them.

Searching is where to start: the two kinds of search, what happens to a sentence you type, every filter and what it actually means, and how to read an empty result, which is nearly always one filter rather than the market.

Saving, notes and history covers the shortlist and the three things that look like it but are not. Saving, dismissing and viewing mean different things and are treated differently.

Saved searches is for a search you would run again: what gets stored, and how to word one so it stays useful.

Alerts is what a saved search does when you are not looking. Read this one even if you think you know how alerts work, because what fires one here is narrower and stranger than usual.

Matching is the other direction: instead of you asking, it works out what you would want from what you have saved and dismissed.

Valuations and insights covers the five analyses you can run on a property, and how much to trust each.

Credits is what costs something and what does not. Short version: anything that asks a model a question costs, everything else is free, and nothing is capped.

If you are just looking

Search with words rather than only filters, save the handful you would actually view, and dismiss the ones that are wrong. That is enough to make both alerts and matching work, and it is about ten minutes of effort.

If you are publishing

The agents section is for you.
