Signal
Start with an alert or behaviour worth examining. Scout brings the relevant activity into focus so an analyst can decide what deserves a closer look.
A signal is only the beginning of a decision.

Context
Connect on-chain flows with customer information and relevant evidence. See the relationships around an event before interpreting what it means.
Origin
Follow every claim back to its source. Keep the evidence and its origin directly connected so a reviewer can inspect the basis for each conclusion.
Uncertainty
Distinguish what is known from what is inferred. Keep unresolved questions visible, so confidence reflects the evidence and gaps remain clear.
Traceability
Build a case narrative that a human reviewer can follow. Link observations, evidence and reasoning into a clear path from the first alert to the final decision.
Start with the signal. Know what needs a closer look.

Every finding.
A source behind it.
Scout starts with the observable facts: 48,500 USDC sent to a new destination. The transaction record shows the amount and addresses, while the purpose remains unconfirmed.
PREPARED FOR HUMAN REVIEW
An unusual transfer.
A connected record.
48,500 USDC was sent to a new destination, followed by three onward transfers. The amount exceeds the customer’s typical activity. Source-of-funds information is still needed.
FINDINGS & OPEN QUESTIONS
THE SUPPORTING RECORD
The transfer itself.
The recorded movement anchors the case. Amount and destination are observations that can be checked directly.
- Amount
- 48,500 USDC
- From
- 0x41…7c20
- To
- 0x8f…2a91
- Destination
- New in the reviewed history
WHAT THIS SUPPORTS
A transfer occurred to a new destination. This record alone does not establish its purpose or intent.
The comparison behind the alert.
Scout compares the transfer with the activity available for this customer, keeping the observation window visible.
- Review window
- Previous 90 days
- Typical transfers
- 2,000–8,000 USDC
- Current transfer
- 48,500 USDC
- Profile on file
- Business payments
WHAT THIS SUPPORTS
The amount is outside the observed range. Unusual size warrants a closer look; it does not determine whether the transfer is legitimate.
Follow the sequence.
Three onward movements follow the initial transfer. Each amount stays linked to its destination in the case.
- Time after receipt
- 12 minutes
- 0x3b…f108
- 24,000 USDC
- 0x72…e46c
- 16,000 USDC
- 0x9a…d052
- 8,500 USDC
- Total onward
- 48,500 USDC
WHAT THIS SUPPORTS
The records show where the funds moved next. They do not, by themselves, identify who controls the receiving addresses.
A gap stays a gap.
There is no supporting source-of-funds record attached to this example. Scout keeps the missing information visible.
- Known
- Transfer and subsequent movements
- Not established
- Origin and purpose of the funds

FOR THE ANALYST
Does this transfer match the customer’s stated source of funds? The question remains open until sufficient evidence is available.
Clarity for the case.
Accountability for the decision.
Scout makes the path to a decision easier to inspect. The analyst verifies the evidence, decides what it means and leaves a record another person can understand.
CASE SC-02401 / 03
Start with what can be checked.
Review the transaction, history and linked movements. Scout keeps direct observations beside the missing information, so the evidence has a clear boundary.
CASE SC-02402 / 03
Context informs. A human decides.
Use the record, policy and relevant customer context to determine the next step. Scout supports the reasoning; it does not decide the outcome.
CASE SC-02403 / 03
Make the reasoning easy to revisit.
Record the evidence considered, the unresolved questions and the final assessment in one traceable case narrative for the next reviewer.
