Inspiration

Business cards are easy to lose or forget about, with KeepInTouch, you can start following up with recruiters in a couple minutes. Just snap a picture of their business card, and let the app do it's magic.

Using Swift in XCode, and the Microsoft Vision API.

Challenges we ran into

We had to try different image recognition APIs.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating something that everyone will be able to use as early as tomorrow, even though we started as a team of strangers.
