Overview
Assets Scout (Scout by Asseter.ai) is an AI-powered visual search tool that lets users upload images to find similar 3D models, textures, and other CG assets aggregated across supported 3D stock marketplaces. Key advertised capabilities include image-based search, computer-vision/object-detection assistance to help "assemble" a picture from assets, favorite lists and sharing, and one-click cross-marketplace aggregation of results. Public pages visited include the main site (scout.asseter.ai), plans (/plans) with free and subscription options, referral program, favorites (authenticated only), and privacy policy. Pricing details on /plans show a Basic free tier (10 searches/month), a Daily one-day unlimited option (one-time/day purchase implied; explicit one-off price not listed in the extract), a Supporter $5/month plan (100 searches/month), a Pro $10/month plan (marked popular; unlimited searches), and a Yearly $100/year plan (unlimited searches for a year). Notes: some pages such as /pricing and /features returned 404s or placeholder content in the extraction, favorites require authentication, and the parent site (asseter.ai) contains broader docs, API reference and enterprise information. Recommended next steps include creating an account to test the free Basic plan, confirming the Daily one-time price at checkout if needed, and consulting the parent site for API or enterprise details. This summary reflects only the public information collected and does not fabricate missing explicit pricing or technical details.
