Born from lost connections. Built for the modern professional.
We believe networking should be about people—not paper, forgotten business cards, or manually saving contact details.
The Bengaluru Cab Incident
The Lost Folio
It started between two conference venues in Bengaluru. Our founder left a folio of collected business cards in a cab. Hundreds of potential connections, instantly gone.
The 6-Week Prototype
We built the first 100 digital cards and tested them live at tech expos. The response was immediate—people loved not having to type contact details manually.
Beyond Just a Card
We expanded into instant AI multi-lingual scanning and contextual contact notes, becoming a true digital networking identity.
"Traditional business cards are easy to exchange but difficult to manage. They get lost, become outdated, and rarely capture the complete professional identity of a person. Parichay changes that."
