In their own words
Dot
Dot lets people share a customizable dot.Profile using a dot.device tap, a profile QR code, or a username link. Recipients open shared profiles in a phone browser; Dot says a dot.device does not require the recipient to have an app. Profiles can bring together contact details, social, productivity, payment and music links, along with a bio, profile picture and banner. The free dot.Profile includes two-way contact exchange, basic contact management, a basic QR code, a username and Apple Wallet and Android Wallet integration. It costs nothing, billed Free for life, and is included with a one-time dot.device purchase. dot.Profile+ costs $15 a month and offers a 7-day free trial. It adds an AI scanner for turning paper business cards into downloadable contacts, plus advanced contact management and contact export. Dot.Teams is presented for teams using business cards to capture leads and advertises free custom devices. Any camera-equipped phone can scan a profile QR code; NFC tapping depends on the phone's NFC capability.
