How to Digitize Visitors Business Card?

How to scan?
SharkID allows you to scan biz card in 3 ways;
- Scan biz card for yourself
- Scan biz card on behalf of your CEO/MD
- Scan biz card on behalf of your Company.

#1 How to scan biz card for yourself?
Step 1: Open SharkID > Go to Menu 
Step 2: Click Scan Biz cards > Give access to the camera
Step 3: Take Picture >  Repeat.
You can scan 10 cards at a times. If you have more than 10 biz cards close the window & start again 

How scanning works?
Step 1: Once you take pictures of cards, images are uploaded on SharkID servers.
Step 2: Images will be refined to make it OCR readable & Text is extracted
Step 3: AI engine processes text to identify the name, designation, address, contact numbers, etc.
Step 4: Mutual friend between you & card owner is identified.
Step 5: Card is pushed back to your phone

SMS Notification:
When you scan card, an SMS is sent to a person whose card was scanned on your behalf;

"Your Name", "Mobile Number" scanned your biz card in SharkID app to find mutual friends between you & him. To grow your network install SharkID app - bit.ly/aaaaaaaa

Important Notice:
At SharkID we believe that we should control who has our number and not another way round that is controlling whose number we have in our phonebook. Hence the above message is being sent. A SharkID user can delete his/her number from your phonebook, so kindly scan cards with the prior permission of biz card owners.

How long does it take to process card?
Image correction, OCR & AI Processing roughly takes approx one minute/card.  When you scan a card, gets queued up behind other cards already in the queue. So it may take anything from a few minutes to hours. Once it is done you will be notified. You get 2 notification. 1. When your image is successfully uploaded. 2. When your card is successfully digitized & added to your contacts.
