AI Business Card (Korea Context)

"AI business card" carries two meanings:

1. Cards Processed by AI

Photograph a card and AI:

  • Extracts text via OCR
  • Analyzes the company and industry
  • Researches the person's background
  • Drafts follow-up messages

2. The Card Itself Becoming AI

Looking ahead: NFC / QR + AI Profile = a dynamic card that surfaces different information depending on the viewer's interests.
