The smartest visiting card scanner app in India
Stop typing phone numbers while standing in front of a shop. Just point your camera, and Ahoyy saves the contact instantly. Fast, accurate, and completely free.
Don't just scan it. Remember it.
Most business card scanner apps just turn an image into text and dump it into your phonebook. That's how you end up with "Raju AC" and "Raju AC 2."
Ahoyy captures the contact details from the visiting card, and instantly lets you add where you are and why you saved them. So when you need an AC mechanic six months later, you actually know who to call.
Ahoyy vs. Typing it manually
Typing it manually
- Takes 30-40 seconds of awkward standing.
- Prone to typos in phone numbers.
- Clutters your personal phonebook.
- Hard to remember where you met them months later.
Using Ahoyy
- Takes 2 seconds. Just point and shoot.
- Accurate AI-powered text extraction.
- Keeps contacts out of your personal phonebook.
- Automatically saves the location where you met.
Privacy first. Your data is yours.
Unlike other free scanner apps, we don't sell your scanned contacts or use them to build a public caller ID database. The data you scan stays in your private Ahoyy account, exactly where it belongs.
