CardAction is an on-device AI business card scanner for iOS and Android that instantly captures contact details from any business card and lets you save, sync, and follow up in seconds.
What is CardAction?
CardAction is an on-device AI-powered business card scanner that extracts names, emails, phone numbers, job titles, and company details from any card with near-perfect accuracy. It runs entirely on-device, works offline, and supports batch scanning, Google Sheets sync, webhook integrations, and instant follow-ups via WhatsApp, call, email, or SMS. Developed by KraftPixel Labs, it is available for iOS and Android.
Key Features
- AI-Powered OCR — Extracts contact fields (name, title, company, email, phone) from stylized fonts, vertical layouts, or non-English text with near-perfect accuracy; edit any field before saving.
- Batch Scanning — Scan up to an entire stack of cards (e.g., 50 from a conference) in one session; processes and saves each contact automatically.
- Google Sheets Sync — Every scanned contact auto-pushes to a Google Sheet in real time; ideal for sales teams and event organizers.
- Webhook Integration — Connect to Zapier, Make, HubSpot, or your own API to trigger custom workflows.
- Instant Follow-ups — One tap to WhatsApp, call, email, or SMS; send a follow-up seconds after meeting someone.

- Smart Folders — Organize scanned contacts by event, company, or category (e.g., Conferences, Clients, Partners).
- Works Offline — All OCR processing happens on-device; no internet needed for scanning; contacts sync to external services when back online.
