ContactsAI reimagines how you save and find contacts. Instead of typing field by field, just describe the person — in text, by voice, or by scanning their business card — and Apple Intelligence does the rest, entirely on your device. **CAPTURE CONTACTS NATURALLY** Type a sentence like "Sarah Lee, product designer at Verve Studio, sarah@verve.io" and ContactsAI instantly extracts a full contact card — name, phone, email, job title, company, hometown, where you met, and more. No form-filling. No tapping through fields. **VOICE INPUT** Enable the microphone and speak contact details naturally. ContactsAI transcribes and extracts everything on-device using Speech Recognition. **BUSINESS CARD SCANNER** Point your camera at any business card. ContactsAI auto-captures once it detects enough text and builds the contact card for you. Or pick a card photo from your library. **NATURAL LANGUAGE SEARCH** Forget scrolling through hundreds of names. Search the way you think: • "Who did I meet in Paris?" • "Find all Designers" • "Show contacts from Acme" **ORGANIZE WITH GROUPS** Create custom contact groups with your choice of name, color, and icon. Assign contacts to multiple groups. Manage memberships from any contact detail screen. **APPLE CONTACTS SYNC** Optionally sync with your existing Apple Contacts. All locally added contacts are always available — even without sync enabled. **100% ON-DEVICE AI** Every bit of AI processing — extraction, classification, search — runs locally using Apple Intelligence Foundation Models. Your contacts are never sent to any external server. Ever. --- **REQUIREMENTS** • iPhone 15 Pro or later • iOS 26 or later • Apple Intelligence enabled
