Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Haystack combines digital business card creation with professional contact management for individuals, teams, and enterprise organizations. Users can create cards, add logos, photos, contacts, and social profiles, then share them through QR codes, email, text, NFC, or links. The platform also stores contacts, supports notes and tags, scans paper business cards with AI, and synchronizes contacts with mobile devices and Outlook. Web, iOS, Android, and API access support use across different workflows.
The pricing structure covers both individual and organizational needs. Personal includes unlimited digital cards, unlimited card shares, AI card scanning, and contact and social profile additions. The published annual plans show Pro at $4.50 per user per month and Business at $2.50 per user per month. Pro adds customized card design, user permissions, customizable links, smart email signatures, CRM integrations, and exposure analytics. Business includes Pro features plus teams for organizing shared contact information. Monthly pricing shows Pro at $7.95 per user per month and Business at $4.95 per user per month. A free plan and a 14-day free trial are also available.
Haystack fits teams that want contact storage connected to digital identity and sharing. Its integrations include Salesforce, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Outlook, Zapier, Webhooks, REST API, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, and HRIS systems. Enterprise adds dedicated customer success, HRIS integrations, custom fields, advanced security, SSO, and automated provisioning. Choose Haystack when digital cards, contact capture, synchronization, and team administration are central requirements. Choose another contact management product if the priority is a broader relationship-management workflow rather than card creation and sharing.
