About business card scanner
Snap a business card photo; get a structured JSON with name, title, company, email, phone. It sits in the image shelf alongside 168 other image tools, needs no account, and keeps the same behaviour whether you open it here or call it through the REST API.
It takes any image and gives back JSON. It uses a model we host ourselves, not a third-party API. The work happens on our servers, and the upload is encrypted per file and deleted an hour later — 24 hours if you are signed in. The same operation is available programmatically at POST /v1/image/business-card.
Business Card Scanner questions
Where does Business Card Scanner process my file?
On our own servers. This tool needs more than a browser tab can provide, so the file is uploaded over TLS, processed on our infrastructure — no third-party processing APIs are in the path — and both the input and the result are deleted within an hour.
What files can I use with Business Card Scanner?
Any image file your browser can read. The limit is 20 MB per file.
Can I run Business Card Scanner on several files at once?
Yes. Business Card Scanner takes one file at a time, so selecting several runs it once per file, one after another, and you get a result for each.
Do I need an account to use Business Card Scanner?
No. Business Card Scanner works without signing in, and that is not a trial — it is how the free tier works. An account only matters for things that need one to exist at all: larger server jobs against your quota, API keys, saved workflows and billing.
Can I run Business Card Scanner from my own code?
Yes. Every tool on the site is reachable from the REST API with the same slug — `image-business-card` — and the same options as this page, so anything you can do here you can automate against your own files.
