About

Echo Card AI

Features
Read full description

Echo turns the business cards you collect into saved contacts and a hello, sent before the event is over. SCAN • Point your camera at a card. Echo reads the name, title, company, phone, email and website. • Two-sided cards: take the front and back in one go, and Echo reads them as one card. • Reads English, Chinese, Malay, Japanese, Korean and Arabic. SAY HELLO • A short, personal hello is ready the moment the card is read. Send it on WhatsApp or email with one tap. • Pick a style: Friendly, Formal or Short. Rewrite it with one tap. • Echo files each card under the event in your calendar, so your hello mentions where you met. REMEMBER • Add a voice note and tags like "Wants a demo" or "Investor" to anyone you meet. • One list of everyone you met, newest first, plus an A–Z contacts list and search. • Save to iPhone Contacts. Export to CSV for HubSpot or Zoho. • iCloud sync keeps your cards on your iPhone and iPad. YOUR OWN CARD • Show your QR code. People scan it with their camera to open your card page. • Your card page shows only what you switch on: name, phone, email, company and logo, website, social links and a photo of your card. Visitors save you to their contacts in one tap. • Share your card on WhatsApp in one tap. Reset the link any time. PRIVACY • Cards you scan stay on your iPhone and your private iCloud. • AI is optional. With it off, Echo reads cards on your phone and writes a plain hello. • You choose what goes on your card page. ECHO PRO • Try Echo with 10 free scans. Echo Pro gives you unlimited scans and hellos. • Monthly or yearly. The yearly plan starts with a free trial.
