AI Powered Business Card Scanner

Overview

The AI Business Card Scanner is a powerful tool built into the mobile app that transforms the way you capture contact information. Using advanced artificial intelligence, it allows you to quickly scan a physical business card with your phone's camera and automatically pull key details like name, phone number, email address, and company name directly into your CRM. This feature is designed for professionals who need to efficiently manage contacts from events, meetings, or conferences, eliminating the need for slow, error-prone manual data entry.

Availability and Pricing

This feature is currently available exclusively on the mobile app. Each sub-account receives 50 complimentary AI scans and refinements per day. Any usage beyond this free daily allowance is charged at a rate of $0.02 per scan. To use the scanner, you must grant the mobile app permission to access your device's camera.
