How Card Scanning Works

From photo to lead in seconds

1

2

AI Reads the Card

GPT-4 Vision analyses the image and identifies name, company, email, phone, and website.

3

Lead Created

A new lead appears in your list with all details filled in. Add notes or set priority.

4

Export & Follow Up

Export to Excel when ready. Import into your CRM or start following up right away.

Why Card Scanning Beats Manual Entry

Stop typing contact details on tiny phone keyboards

Instant Capture

Scan a card in under 10 seconds. No typing on tiny phone keyboards, no squinting at handwriting.

Accurate Extraction

GPT-4 Vision handles various fonts, layouts, and designs. Understands context to get the right fields.

No Backlog

Cards go straight into your lead list. No pile of cards to enter later. No "I will do it when I get back."

Card Image Saved

The original card image is attached to the lead. You can always check the source if needed.

Perfect For

Anywhere you receive business cards, LeadLog helps you process them instantly

Trade Shows

Collect dozens of cards per day without creating a pile to enter later.

Networking Events

Capture quickly and move on to the next conversation.

Sales Meetings

Log cards immediately after receiving them. Never lose a contact.

Why Business Card Scanning is Essential

The gap between physical cards and digital follow-up is where leads get lost

The Maths

50 cards x 2 minutes each = 100 minutes of data entry. With LeadLog, those same 50 cards take under 10 minutes total.

Capture While Fresh

Capture happens at the event while context is fresh, not days later when you've forgotten the conversation.

Integrated Workflow

Unlike standalone scanner apps, card data goes directly into your lead list alongside voice captures and manual entries.

Combine with Voice

Scan the card for contact details, then record a voice note about your conversation.

Good Lighting

Natural light or bright indoor lighting gives the best results. Avoid shadows across the card.

Keep Card Flat

Curved or bent cards are harder to read. Place on a flat surface if possible.

Fill the Frame

The card should take up most of the camera view for maximum detail.

Verify Results

Take a second to check the extracted data before moving on. A quick edit is faster than fixing later.

Business Card Scanning FAQ

Everything you need to know about card scanning

How It Works

Tap the Photo button, line up the business card in your camera, and take a photo. LeadLog sends the image to GPT-4 Vision, which reads the text and extracts the contact details: name, company, job title, email, phone, and website. The lead appears in your list within seconds.

GPT-4 Vision is highly accurate for standard business cards with clear text. It handles various layouts, fonts, and even some design elements well. Very stylised cards with unusual fonts or heavy graphics may need minor corrections.

LeadLog extracts name, company name, job title, email address, phone number, and website. If the card includes multiple phone numbers or emails, it captures the most prominent ones.

Using the Feature

Yes. After scanning, you can edit the lead to add notes, set priority (Hot, Warm, Cold), or correct any details. Many users scan the card for contact details, then add a voice note for context about what they discussed.

Yes. Business card scanning uses cloud-based AI processing (GPT-4 Vision), so you need an internet connection. Most trade shows and events have WiFi, or you can use mobile data.
