How AI is used
Handshook is a mobile application for professionals who attend trade shows, expos, and business events. It uses AI to scan physical business cards, event badges, and digital QR codes to extract and label contact details.
The tool is designed for sales teams and marketing agencies who need to collect leads. It can suggest missing information, such as email addresses or LinkedIn profiles, based on the name and company provided on a card.
Buyers should note that while there is a limited free plan, features such as CRM syncing and LinkedIn connectivity are available on paid plans. The software requires a separate license for each team member.
To ensure the tool fits your workflow, buyers should confirm their specific CRM is supported via the Zapier integration. While an offline mode is available for image capture, a connection is required to use AI features.
