Hacker News Reader

Just tried this out. I could see this being an app that I would use. Only negative (not an app negative) is in the beginning getting all of them scanned in. I have a few 100 biz cards and wouldn't mind having them stored digitally.

The transcribing aspect looks interesting. I am still waiting for my first few to process but very curious to see how their OCR works out.

The big thing to mention here is that we don't use OCR, we use real people. It's the main differentiator (aside from the Zapier integration) between Card Reader and just about every other alternative. Yes, it's slower, but it's also incredibly accurate. And really, when was the last time that you scanned in a business card and needed the information from it 20 seconds later?
