AI networking assistant with digital business cards and a personal CRM that remembers why you met
Create unlimited digital business cards and share them by QR code, link, AirDrop or an Apple/Google Wallet pass. The recipient does not need to install anything to view your card.
Ask questions about your network in plain language and get answers that combine saved cards, notes and meeting context instead of a raw alphabetical list.
Record a voice note as you leave a meeting; it is transcribed, summarized and attached to the correct contact, and a ready-to-send follow-up is drafted a couple of days later.
Turn single paper cards, or whole stacks, into searchable digital contacts, and keep the original scanned image alongside the structured record.
