Read full descriptionHide full description
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.
