CardFit · Test #1 · For anyone who gets a business card

Scan any business card. Know if they’re a fit.

Upload a photo of any business card. Our company-research engine runs a fast, automated fit check and tells you whether they’re a customer, a vendor, a partner, or someone to refer to a friend.

Try CardFit

Upload a photo of a card you were handed — at a lunch, a meeting, or a referral — and a short note about your own company. You’ll get a sample fit report right away so you can rate the idea and tell us what you’d pay. No charge today.

Preview of the card photo you selected

The report you’ll see first is a clearly labeled example, with fictional companies, so you can try the product and tell us what you think.

How it works

  1. You get a card — at lunch, a meeting, or a referral. Upload a photo of the card through this page, and a short note about your own company.
  2. Our company-research engine runs a fast, automated fit check from public sources: their website, state filings, and public projects, bids, and awards. We do not buy or resell licensed contact data.
  3. You get a one-page fit report: the company profile, what they sell and buy, the timing signals, and 10 to 20 tight fits, each with a 1-to-5 score and a why-now line.

This test shows a labeled example report first, so you can try the idea and tell us what you’d pay before a live check is offered.

What you get

  • A company profile, plus what they sell and what they typically buy, from public sources — not a paid contact list, and not another card scanner.
  • Timing signals: recently announced projects, bids, and awards, so you know if the moment is now.
  • 10 to 20 tightly matched fits, each with a 1-to-5 score and a why-now line — a customer, a vendor, a partner, or someone to refer to a friend.

About 2ndGen Idea Factory

CardFit is test #1 from 2ndGen Idea Factory, our place to share new business ideas, get a straight rating from people who would actually use them, and invite people to try a mockup and join a waitlist. Test #0 and test #2 go through the same concept-to-validation process. Our founder has dated folders of ideas that later showed up in the tech press, often two months to two years after first being shared.

Privacy

We use the card photo you upload, a short profile of your company, and public information about the other company (their website, state filings, and news of projects, bids, and awards). We do not sell your contacts, we do not contact the person on the card, and we do not buy licensed contact lists to enrich a card. This test stores the photo you upload, plus the email and answers you choose to send, so we can run the test and count results. A full privacy policy should be reviewed so it covers card photos. The current policy is at 2ndgen.io/privacy.
