Scan business cards in seconds. CardHaus turns a stack of paper cards into a searchable, shareable contact library that lives entirely on your device. WHY CARDHAUS β€’ Real-time on-device OCR β€” point your camera, get the contact in one tap. No round-trip to a server, no waiting. β€’ Photo import β€” already have card pictures? Pick from your library and CardHaus reads them in the background. β€’ Manual entry too β€” for cards you'd rather type out yourself. ORGANIZE YOUR LIBRARY β€’ Eight built-in categories (Client, Prospect, Vendor, Partner, Colleague, Investor, Media, Other) plus unlimited custom ones. β€’ Favorites, tags, free-form notes, and lightning-fast search across every field. β€’ Wallet-style stack on the home page for the cards you've added recently. STAY IN TOUCH β€’ One tap to call, email, open the website, or save to your iOS Contacts. β€’ Generate a QR code for your own card and share it with a long-press. β€’ iOS Share Sheet integration β€” anywhere you can paste a contact, you can paste a CardHaus card. CONNECT YOUR WORK ACCOUNT (OPTIONAL) β€’ Microsoft 365 β€” push scanned cards straight into Outlook contacts. β€’ Microsoft Dynamics 365 β€” create Dataverse contacts in your own tenant. Sign-in uses standard Microsoft OAuth (PKCE, no passwords stored). CardHaus never holds tokens for accounts you haven't connected. MADE FOR EVERYONE β€’ Full English and Arabic UI with right-to-left layout mirroring. β€’ VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion and high-contrast all supported. β€’ Works fully offline β€” every feature except the optional CRM export functions without an internet connection. PRIVACY-FIRST BY DEFAULT Your scanned cards stay on your iPhone. We don't sell your contacts and we don't operate a server that stores them β€” there is nothing for us to leak. The free tier is supported by Google AdMob native ads, which receive standard ad-request data (device model, OS, IP address, advertising identifier when you grant the iOS tracking permission). AdMob never receives your card contents. Read the full policy at https://www.cardhaus.app/privacy.
