## Key features

- **NFC cards:** The Original, The Bamboo and The Metal, plus a 24K gold card by invitation. V1CE designs each card and replaces lost or broken ones free.
- **Two-way contact exchange:** A tap opens your page and saves you to their phone, and they can send their details back. Share by NFC, QR code, link, email signature or Apple and Google Wallet.
- **Networking CRM:** Captured contacts land in a built-in CRM with notes, tags and the event you met at, and can sync to an existing CRM such as Salesforce or HubSpot.
- **Booking, selling and agreements:** Your page takes bookings, shows services with checkout, shares downloads and collects signed agreements: 10 a month free, unlimited on Client Capture OS.
- **Scout and Co-Work:** On Client Capture OS, Scout fills in up to 53 details per contact and briefs you before meetings; Co-Work takes notes in Zoom, Meet and Teams and drafts follow-ups.
- **Team dashboard:** Teams manage everyone's cards, links and updates from one dashboard and see who viewed each card.

- The free plan takes a 5% fee on services sold through your page and allows one live page, one booking link and 3 AI runs a month.
- V1CE's site links no iOS or Android app: cards are managed in a web app and shared from Apple or Google Wallet.
- Cards come with a 30-day money-back promise (you keep the card), and Client Capture OS can be refunded in full within 30 days.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of V1CE you could make: digital business card and email signature. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It costs $82, paid once.

- You could make: Digital business card and email signature: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Booking pages that read and write other people's calendars and send the emails.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Salesforce, HubSpot and Apple Wallet among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
