Save visiting cards to your phone contacts

Scanned cards are only useful if they are in your phone when the call comes. Cardient sends them to your contacts in one step.

Start scanning cards

One card or all of them

Save a single visiting card from its detail screen, or select many cards and add them to your contacts together. Cardient builds a standard vCard (.vcf) file with name, company, designation, phones, email, website, address and photo.

Android and iPhone

vCard files open directly in the Contacts app on Android and iPhone, and import into Google Contacts, Outlook and most email apps.

Context comes along

The note in each contact says where and when you met, so your phone’s address book remembers the story behind every number.

Excel and CRM export

Need a spreadsheet instead? Export your business cards as CSV for Excel, Google Sheets or your CRM import.

Everything in Cardient

Visiting card scanner with OCR

Photograph the front and back of a business card. Text recognition fills in the name, designation, company, phone numbers, email, website and address, ready to edit.

Save cards to phone contacts

Add one card or your whole list to your phone contacts as a vCard, with photo and notes. Export to Excel/CSV for your CRM.

Follow-up reminders

Plan a call, meeting or email for every new contact, get reminded on time and add it to your calendar.

Remember where you met

Each card keeps the event, place, date and an optional voice note, so “who was that from the expo?” has an answer.

Exchange cards at events

Create an event room, share the code or QR, and everyone in the room swaps digital visiting cards in one tap.

Living cards that stay up to date

When someone you are connected with changes their number or company, your copy of their card can update itself.

Works offline

Sign in once. After that you can scan, browse, search and edit cards with no internet; changes sync when you are back online.

Private and encrypted

Contact details, photos and voice notes are encrypted on our servers. Only you can see your cards.

Questions

Does saving to contacts work offline?

Yes. Cards stored on your device can be saved to your contacts without an internet connection.

Will it create duplicate contacts?

Your contacts app decides how to merge. Most phones offer to merge contacts with the same name or number.

How do I scan a visiting card?

Open Cardient, tap Scan and take a photo of the card (front and back if needed). The app reads the text and fills in the contact fields. Review them and save.

Can I save scanned business cards to my phone contacts?

Yes. Open a card and choose Save to contacts, or select many cards and save them all at once. Cardient creates a standard vCard (.vcf) that Android and iPhone contacts can import.

Does Cardient work without internet?

Yes. You need the internet only to sign in. After that you can scan cards, search, add notes and reminders offline; everything syncs automatically when you reconnect.

Every card, a connection.

Scan your first visiting card in under a minute. Works on Android, iPhone and desktop.
