# Working a campaign

> The campaign screen in Outscope: companies ranked with the reason, filters kept in the address, the company panel, morning updates and keys.

A campaign is one search: what you sell, the signals, the keywords and filters. Its screen lists the companies that matched, best first, each with the reason, and opens any of them in a panel with the evidence.

## The tabs

| Tab | What it holds |
| --- | --- |
| **Companies** | Every company that matched: its name, the strongest posting's title and signal, and when it was posted |
| **Signals** | Every matching line, posting by posting, so you can see which signals find the most |
| **People** | Everyone found in this campaign, with the company beside each and their first line |
| **Settings** | What you sell, who buys it, the signals, which postings to read, the roles to look up, and morning updates |

## The company panel

Choose a company to open its panel. From the top:

- **Score, signals matched and posted**, in one strip.
- **Why now**: one sentence on why the company is on your list, and its strongest posting.
- **Who to email**: see [who to email](https://outscope.co/docs/who-to-email).
- **Signals over time**: the company's matching postings on one line, newest on top, each with its marked line and a link to the posting.
- **Hiring**: open roles by team, and how many went up in the last 30 days.
- **The company**: what its homepage says, whether it sells to businesses or consumers, and how it fits your buyer.

On a wide screen the panel can fold away to a strip; choosing a company opens it again.

## Filters

The filter bar narrows the companies already found, instantly, without reading anything new:

- **Search** companies and roles.
- **Signals**: companies whose postings match every signal you pick.
- **Lowest company score.**
- **Posted**: only postings that went up in a recent window.
- **Team** a matching posting is for, and **where** the role is.
- **Sort** by score or by newest posting.

Filters live in the page's address, so a link to a filtered list opens the same list for a teammate.

> Filters on the Companies tab only narrow what was found. To change which postings are read, use the Settings tab.

## Morning updates and reading now

With a plan, every campaign reads the postings that are new or changed since its last run, each morning, and new companies join the list as they post. **Find new companies** reads now instead of waiting for the morning. Either way, the postings read count toward your plan's month. To stop a campaign's morning updates, set **Every morning** to Off in its Settings tab.

A run reads a limited number of postings per company, with companies taking turns, so one company with hundreds of open roles can't use up a run. While a run is reading, the header says so.

## Keys

| Key | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| `/` | Search companies and roles |
| `j` and `k` | Next and previous company |
| `Esc` | Close a filter section |
| `⌘K` or `Ctrl K` | Jump to any page or action |
| `⌘B` or `Ctrl B` | Fold the sidebar to icons and back |

## Deleting a campaign

In the Settings tab, the person who made a campaign, an owner or an admin can delete it. It leaves every list and frees a place on your plan. The people it found stay in the workspace, and the postings it read this month still count.
