# Digital business cards for engineers

> ConnectMachine gives engineers a digital business card that shares discipline, title, and technical profile by QR or link, an AI scanner that turns conference and site-visit cards into clean contacts, and a note on each person recording what they build. The vendor, the specialist, or the recruiter you met two conferences ago stays searchable.

ConnectMachine is an AI agent for digital business cards and contact management.

## How it works

### Stop spelling out your email

Your name, discipline, company, and a link to your GitHub or portfolio on one QR code. Share it across a table or a noisy trade-show floor without repeating yourself or mistyping anything.

### Scan the stack from the conference

Vendors, suppliers, recruiters, and the engineer with the answer to your problem all hand you cards. Scan them and each becomes a clean contact, tagged with the event so the pile means something on Monday.

### Remember what they actually do

Attach a note on the component, the tolerance, or the tooling you talked about. Ask the AI Concierge who you met that works on that, and the answer comes back with the context you recorded.

## Why engineers choose ConnectMachine

### A searchable bench of specialists

Engineering problems repeat. The contact who solved a thermal issue for you last year is worth finding again, and notes make that possible without digging through old email.

### Vendors and suppliers, organized

Trade shows produce dozens of supplier contacts that go stale in a pocket. Captured and noted, they become a list you can hand to procurement or search yourself when a spec changes.

### Ready when you are looking

Recruiters find you at conferences whether or not you are looking. One card that carries your discipline and profile makes that conversation easy, and your contacts export to CSV whenever you want them.

## What customers say

> I came back from a trade show with forty cards and no memory of which vendor did what. Scanning them with a note each has saved me a whole afternoon of guessing every year since.

## FAQ

### What is the best digital business card for engineers?

One that handles the conference exchange in both directions: sharing your discipline and profile by QR without spelling out an email, and turning the cards you collect into contacts you can search later. ConnectMachine is built around that loop.

### Does the other person need an app?

No. They scan your QR code or open your link in a browser and save your details in one tap, with nothing to install.

### Can I keep work and personal profiles separate?

Yes. Keep one card for your employer and another for consulting, open-source, or speaking, and share whichever fits the conversation.

### Does it work for an engineering team?

Yes. The Team plan gives every engineer a card under central billing with admin branding controls, and contacts can sync to the company CRM.

## Get started
