Prep the event
Create the event, import exhibitors, build your visit plan and categories before you hit the floor.
Prep. Scan. Follow up.
Your trade show contacts. On your phone, not ours. Prep the event, scan & qualify on the floor, run follow-ups and track your leads. Offline. No cloud. No account.

You meet dozens of people at every show, but most leads slip away.
Without the right tool, cards pile up, context fades, and your CRM stays empty until weeks later.
-
Paper cards in a drawer
Stacks of business cards never make it into your workflow after the show.
-
Show WiFi that fails
Cloud apps stop working when the network is saturated or down on the floor.
-
Manual CRM entry
Hours wasted typing contact details instead of selling on the booth.
-
Missed follow-ups
By the time you remember, the lead has gone cold or moved on.
-
Contacts on someone else's cloud
Your strategic leads stored on a third-party server you don't control.
-
Conversations you forget
Without notes on the spot, faces and context fade within days.
Every lead prepped, captured, then followed up.
PikScan covers the full show: visit plan, floor scan & qualify, follow-up playbooks and tracking: then CRM export when you’re ready.
What is PikScan?
One app from booth prep to follow-up
Not an online CRM. Not a basic card scanner. Prep, scan & qualify, follow up and track: offline.
Scan & qualify
Cards, QR badges or LinkedIn: OCR, hot/warm/cold qualification, notes and pipeline: right on the booth.
Follow up & track
Start post-show playbooks, work today’s queue, track on the dashboard. Export to your CRM when you want.
The show floor is not an office.
- WiFi saturated
- Network down
- 3 minutes between conversations
Most trade show scanning and lead capture apps rely on a third-party cloud.
- A connection to upload your scans
- An account set up before you reach the booth
- Contacts stored on their cloud servers
PikScan doesn't.
Scan, qualify and export directly on your iPhone.

Privacy
Your prospects are confidential. Treat them that way.
The contacts you scan at a trade show are your most strategic leads. They shouldn't transit through a third-party cloud, a US SaaS database, or anyone else's server.
Local OCR
Card recognition runs entirely on your device. No image is sent to any server. Not even ours.
On-device storage
Contacts, voice notes, card photos and catalogs are stored in a local SQLite database on your iPhone. You own your data.
Offline first
Scan, qualify and export with zero network. Ideal when connectivity is poor, absent, or simply not to be trusted on a shared show floor WiFi.
Privacy-first and designed to support GDPR requirements. Privacy policy →
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does PikScan work fully offline?
Yes. Scan, storage, voice notes, pipeline and export work without internet. Everything stays on your iPhone: local OCR, SQLite storage, card photos and voice notes. Voice-to-text uses Apple's on-device speech engine (iPhone). PikScan collects zero data.
Where is my data stored, and does PikScan support GDPR?
Contacts, voice notes, card photos and catalogs are stored in a local SQLite database on your iPhone. PikScan collects zero data: nothing is sent to our servers. You can export a portable backup (local Files or your own iCloud Drive) and restore it in the app at any time. Offline is a privacy design, not a missing backup. The app is privacy-first and designed to support GDPR requirements. You own your data.
Is PikScan available on Android?
No. PikScan is an iPhone (iOS) app available on the App Store. It is not available on Android at this time.
Which CRM integrations are available?
Free plan: native Excel (.xlsx) and JSON. Pro adds Salesforce, HubSpot, Odoo, Pipedrive, vCard (.vcf) and ICS calendar (Excel or ICS export).
How is PikScan different from typical cloud business card scanners?
Most cloud scanners sync cards to a vendor server, require an account, and need internet to finish the workflow. PikScan keeps prep, scan, qualification and follow-up on your iPhone, then exports to your CRM when you decide. OCR runs on the device. Contacts stay in a local SQLite database, not on a third-party cloud. Backup is a user-owned static file (local Files or iCloud Drive), restorable in the app at any time: not a missing cloud feature.
Can I scan trade show QR badges?
Yes. PikScan reads vCard QR codes, LinkedIn links, encoded email and phone, in addition to business card OCR.
What is event prep?
Before the show, list exhibitors to visit (company, stand, hall, priority, visit time) or import a CSV/Excel file from the organizer. Reorder your route, mark booths as visited and link scanned contacts to your plan. Planned visits show in the calendar. Free: 25 exhibitors per event. Pro: unlimited.
How does post-show follow-up work?
After the show, open an event via the paper-plane icon, then Start follow-ups. PikScan builds a sequence from temperature (hot / warm / cold). Work today's queue (email, call, WhatsApp). Free: hot plans and 5 actions per event. Pro: all temperatures, unlimited, day-14 report.
Can I import an exhibitor list?
Yes. In Event prep, tap Import list to load CSV or Excel (.xlsx). PikScan auto-detects columns (company, stand, hall, priority, visit day/time, notes, tags) in FR/EN/DE/ES. Review the preview, skip duplicates, then add to list or replace list. A downloadable CSV template is included. Subject to the free plan’s 25-exhibitor limit per event.
How do prospect categories work?
In Settings → Categories, create a tree of categories and subcategories. Assign them when saving a contact. View prospects as a list or folders, same for event prep.
How do backups work?
Offline is not a data-loss risk. Export a backup anytime (Settings → Data): a .pikscan JSON or a full .pikscan.zip with photos, cards, voice and catalogs. The app also launches a periodic backup reminder on an interval you choose. Save the file locally (Files / On My iPhone) or to your own iCloud Drive as a static archive you own: not a PikScan cloud. Restore inside the app at any time, by merge or full replace.
Is the app available in multiple languages?
French, English, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese (Simplified) and Arabic (RTL). OCR supports major Latin-script languages.
How do I cancel?
Settings → Subscriptions in your Apple account. No interaction with PikScan needed.
PikScan suite
Also in the suite: PikScan Expenses
