About
Every business card you're handed becomes a clean, complete contact β and your own card becomes something you can share with anyone, no app required on their end. Free to try: scan up to 10 cards. Unlock cardlio once β a single purchase, no subscription β for unlimited cards, every export, and Office 365 sync. SCAN ANYTHING WITH A CARD ON IT β’ Live camera capture finds the card, straightens it, and reads it β even several cards in one shot β’ Import photos or whole PDF stacks at once β’ Paste an email signature and get a contact, no photo needed β’ Review before saving: every field validated and editable READS CARDS LIKE A PERSON WOULD cardlio looks at the layout, not just the letters. The big name up top is the person; the line by the logo is the company. It title-cases ALL-CAPS names, repairs spaced-out emails, reads international address formats, and keeps multi-office cards straight. Every address is verified against Apple Maps and pinned. YOUR NETWORK, VISIBLE β’ A world map with your contacts' cards as pins β’ Stats: countries, companies, industries, growth over time β’ Search that filters β tap suggestions like "Industry: Finance" β’ Duplicate detection and merge HAND OUT YOUR CARD WITHOUT THE CARD β’ Share it as a link β your whole card travels inside the link and opens in any browser with an Add to Contacts button (free) β’ Show a QR code anyone's camera can scan (free) β’ Write it to an NFC tag β any phone taps it to open your card, no app needed β’ Add it to Apple Wallet, QR included, two clicks from the lock screen GET YOUR CARDS OUT (premium) β’ Sync straight into your Office 365 / Outlook contacts β one click, no duplicates, even Business Fax β’ Save cards to your Apple Contacts β’ Export vCard, CSV, Outlook-ready CSV, and Salesforce-ready CSV ALSO β’ Syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac through your private iCloud β’ Voice notes: dictate context after a scan, transcribed into the card β’ A built-in handbook explains everything, offline PRIVATE BY DESIGN Scanning, recognition, and organizing run entirely on your device. Your library lives on your devices and in your private iCloud β no accounts, no tracking, no servers reading your contacts. Shared card links carry the card inside the link itself; it never touches a server. Office 365 sync sends contacts only to your own Microsoft account. Optionally bring your own AI key (Anthropic or Google) for the trickiest cards β off by default. cardlio is also on the Mac App Store β one library, every machine.
