BizCardPro.AI vs CamCard
CamCard is the veteran of card scanning — over a decade old, native apps, team plans and an enormous installed base across Asia. BizCardPro.AI is the specialist, built for the multilingual cards that generalist OCR handles as an afterthought. Here is the comparison, taken from CamCard's own documentation rather than from roundups — including the places CamCard is simply better.

Switching from CamCard: the honest path
- 01
Export your existing CamCard data and keep it as a permanent backup — your history stays yours either way.
- 02
Import that export into Google Contacts or your phone if you want the old contacts live somewhere neutral first.
- 03
Scan new cards in BizCardPro.AI — the free 30 scans cover your next event, which is enough to judge the CJK handling on your own cards.
- 04
Re-scan the older cards that still matter. There is no CamCard importer yet, so this is manual — batch photos make a hundred cards an evening’s work, and you gain romanization and archived card images the old data never had.
Frequently asked questions
Is BizCardPro.AI a good CamCard alternative?
It depends on your cards. If Japanese 名刺, Chinese 名片 or Korean 명함 are a regular part of your work, BizCardPro.AI is built for exactly that — native script and romanization stored together as paired fields, surname-first name splitting, and the original card photo kept beside every contact. If you need mature native iOS/Android apps, shared team address books, or simply the largest free scan allowance, CamCard is the stronger pick today.
Which free plan is more generous?
On raw scan count, CamCard — its own FAQ describes Premium as unlimited card recognition versus “100 times under regular account”, where BizCardPro.AI’s free plan includes 30 one-time scans. BizCardPro.AI’s free plan is less restricted in other ways: no ads, cloud sync across all your devices, and full CSV, Google Contacts and vCard export. CamCard lists both ad removal and multi-device login as Premium features.
Can I move my CamCard contacts into BizCardPro.AI?
Not automatically yet — there is no CamCard importer. The honest path today: export your CamCard data and keep it as a permanent backup, then scan new cards in BizCardPro.AI going forward, re-scanning the older contacts that still matter. If a one-click migration is what you need, that is a fair reason to wait.
Does CamCard charge to export your contacts?
Not according to CamCard’s own documentation. Several comparison sites claim export is paywalled, but CamCard’s “What is premium?” page lists unlimited recognition, ad removal, multi-device login, Secretary Scan Mode and a VIP icon — not export — and its export instructions carry no Premium requirement. We would rather correct a claim in our own favour than repeat it.
