What neither tool does

Rewardful and Tolt both work on partners you already have. Neither finds the agencies, consultants and software vendors who already sell to your customers, or pitches them. Scoutner is that recruitment layer: Scout finds, pitches and activates new partners, then syncs with whichever of the two you choose.
