KotaDex is the all-in-one business toolkit for professionals on the go. Scan a business card and smart OCR pulls the name, phone numbers, email, company, job title, and address into an organized, searchable contact database — then export to CSV or save straight to your phone. But KotaDex is much more than a card scanner. It's a full business suite: - Business Card Scanner: capture cards with your camera and auto-extract every field, including international phone numbers. - My Network: search and browse your contacts with a fast A–Z index and tag filters. - Document Scanner: scan multi-page documents, name and save them, then export as PDF or send to a printer. - Receipt Tracker: scan receipts and automatically read the merchant, date, and total; track expenses by category and export to CSV. - Barcode & QR Scanner: scan any barcode or QR code, with quick actions to open links and look up books by ISBN. - Barcode Generator: create QR codes, EAN, UPC, Code 128, Code 39, and more. - Notes to Text: turn handwritten notes and whiteboards into editable digital text. - Digital Business Card: share your details instantly with your own branded QR code. Available in 33 languages. Your scans and contacts stay on your device. KotaDex is free to use. Upgrade to KotaDex Pro to remove all ads and unlock instant CSV and PDF exports, with monthly and yearly plans. KotaDex Pro is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://oliviarenee.app/privacy.html

MeetStack turns every business card, QR exchange and trade show conversation into a lead you actually follow up. NEW IN 1.6: MADE FOR iPhone Duo Unfold iPhone Duo to see your contacts beside their details, and check each scan next to the card photo. Conference Mode tags everyone you meet to the event, puts Scan and My QR on your Lock Screen, and ends with who to follow up. Also new: an Apple Watch app, on-device AI with Apple Intelligence, Booth Mode and, on Business, badge scanning and Salesforce. TRY IT WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Tap "Continue as Guest" and start scanning. Sign in with Apple or Google later and keep every card you've scanned. SCAN BUSINESS CARDS IN SECONDS On-device text recognition pulls out name, title, company, email, phone, website and LinkedIn URL. You review every field before saving, and the card image stays with the contact. Pro adds AI card parsing for tricky layouts. YOUR DIGITAL BUSINESS CARD Share your card by QR code, link, Apple Wallet or an NFC tag you program from the app. Whoever opens it can send their details straight back, with no app needed. Pro unlocks premium themes. CONTACTS THAT STAY ORGANIZED Search by name, company, email, phone or job title. Add tags, notes and favorites. Each contact has Details, Activity and Deals tabs. MeetStack warns you about duplicates and merges them, keeping the best details from each. CAPTURE THE CONTEXT Tap Add Voice Memo and talk for twenty seconds about who you met and what you discussed. It's transcribed on your iPhone and saved to the contact; the audio is deleted immediately and never uploaded. This is dictation, not a call recorder. Pro turns it into a summary with tags and a follow-up date. NEVER FORGET TO FOLLOW UP Set reminders and keep-in-touch cadences. Every contact is marked warm, cooling or cold, and Home's Today list shows who's due. A morning brief sums up your day. Five follow-up templates are free; Pro rewrites the one you pick for that person. KNOW WHO YOU'RE MEETING Connect your calendar for a brief 30 minutes before each meeting: their role, company and when you last spoke. Afterwards, one tap logs it. Optional, read-only, and your calendar never leaves your device. HOST EVENTS, COLLECT LEADS WITH CONSENT Create up to 3 events free, from templates for Networking Mixers, Conference Booths, Workshops and Meetups. Attendees scan your join QR once, and their details are shared only with their explicit consent. Publish events so people nearby find them on the map. Business adds unlimited events, campaigns, contests and team access. SEND LEADS TO YOUR CRM Export to CSV or vCard on every plan, including Free. On Business, push contacts to HubSpot or Pipedrive; contacts already in HubSpot are updated, not duplicated. TRACK WHAT'S CLOSING The deal pipeline shows a weighted forecast for this month and quarter, win rate, average cycle, and warnings for stalled deals. WORKS OFFLINE No signal on the show floor? Keep scanning and saving; everything syncs when you're back online. Add your card to Apple Wallet and your QR code is there even without signal. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your contacts and card images are private to your account, and event data is shared only with attendee consent. PLANS • Free: 10 scans a month, 10 reminders, digital card, contacts and export, duplicate detection, advanced filters, voice memos, follow-up templates, Insights, up to 3 events with lead capture and CSV lead export, and unlimited events to join • Pro: unlimited scans and reminders, premium themes, card analytics, AI card parsing, AI follow-ups and memo summaries • Business: everything in Pro, plus unlimited events, HubSpot and Pipedrive export, campaigns, contests, teams and Business-only card themes Pro and Business renew monthly or yearly.
