## What is Krane?

Turn every business card into a contact you'll actually follow up with.

Point your camera at a card, and Krane reads the name, title, company, phone numbers, emails, website, address, and social profiles in seconds, in almost any language. Cards stay organised on your iPhone, ready to call, email, add to Contacts or send to your CRM.

SCAN FAST
• Snap a card with the camera or pick a photo
• Reads cards in many languages and scripts, with Latin transliteration for names
• Add the back of a card: both sides are read together
• No connection? Krane reads the card on your iPhone right away and re-checks it when you're back online
• Event badges too: Krane reads the printed name, title, company and event, plus the contact in badge codes that carry one

SCAN AT EVENTS
• Start an event when you arrive at a conference or trade show
• Every card you scan is filed under it, with where you met and your event tags filled in
• Badge with no email or phone? Scan their business card and it joins the same contact
• See each event's cards, companies, and top tags, and export them in one go

SEND TO YOUR CRM (Pro)
• HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive, or any webhook for Zapier, Make and n8n
• Send one card, a selection, a whole event, or every new scan automatically
• Existing contacts are updated, not duplicated
• Your CRM tokens stay on your iPhone

STAY ORGANISED
• Tags, notes, "where we met" and favourites
• Follow-up reminders that open the right card
• Duplicate detection with one-tap merge
• Search every field, filter by tag or event, group by company or event
• See your contacts on a map

ACT IN ONE TAP
