# Kontakte.me

> Web application for scanning business cards and structuring contact data.

## Product Summary
Kontakte.me is a lightweight web tool that allows users to scan business cards using their browser. It extracts contact details (Name, Company, Email, Phone, Address) using AI/OCR and structures them for export (vCard, CSV).

## Key Characteristics
- **No Install Required**: Runs entirely in the web browser (accessible via mobile and desktop).
- **No CRM Lock-in**: Designed for fast capture and export, not long-term relationship management.
- **Privacy Focused**: Data is processed locally or via transient AI calls; no permanent server storage of contact data.
- **Manual Control**: Users review and edit every field before finalized export.

## What it is NOT
- Not a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system.
- Not a marketing automation tool.
- Not a replacement for a permanent address book.
- Not a social network.
