Dallas-based event tech solutions provider Captello has unveiled its new Intelligent Scanner, which is “designed to revolutionize how organizations capture event data.” To streamline event data capture, the scanner allows users to capture everything from event badges and business cards to QR codes, LinkedIn profiles, paper document—and even live conversations—all with a single button.
Captello CEO Ryan Schefke called the Intelligent Scanner “a game-changer for organizations of all types.”
“This solution allows our users to gather valuable insights effortlessly and in real-time, all while maintaining privacy and accuracy,” he added in a statement. “The Intelligent Scanner transforms how organizations capture leads, ensuring that no valuable data is ever missed.”
The scanner’s power lies in its versatility, Captello said. The solution combines cutting-edge AI-powered data enrichment with the simplicity of a single button, allowing users to capture virtually any type of data from event badges to handwritten notes “instantly and effortlessly.”
Push button, record and organize varied data
The solution ensures that all data can be scanned, whether it’s a note scribbled on a napkin during a networking moment, a printed resume handed to you at a conference, or a badge from an event that doesn’t offer an API integration.
Once scanned, the information flows through Captello’s powerful multi-layered AI engine, which instantly enriches the data by mining details such as email addresses, phone numbers, and company information from over 25 data sources. This ensures that data is comprehensive, actionable, and ready for follow-up, the company said.
Captello’s Chief Technology Officer, Nassir Jamal, said his company is focused on innovation and user experience.
“Our team has worked tirelessly to develop a solution that not only delivers on speed and functionality but also integrates cutting-edge AI to enrich the data we capture,” Jamal said. “The new scanner brings convenience and power to our users by automatically enriching scanned information. This is an essential step toward the future of event data management.”
The technology also includes conversation intelligence capabilities, allowing users to record and transcribe live consent-based conversations at events. This unique feature provides a full transcript, action items, suggested next steps, and even identifies who said what during the conversation. The content can flow directly into the user’s CRM or marketing automation system, ensuring that no important details are lost at a busy event, Captello said.
Intelligent Scanner helps firms capture leads
Captello’s Intelligent Scanner integrates seamlessly with more than 6,000 CRM and marketing automation platforms, as well as more than 300 registration providers. Captured data flows directly into customers’ preferred systems, automating follow-up and enriching data without the need for manual entry. Captello’s platform offers seamless connectivity with Salesforce, HubSpot, Marketo, and.many other leading CRM or marketing automation tools, making it easier than ever to organize leads and keep follow-up processes running smoothly, the company said.
The scanner is part of a broader suite of Captello’s AI-powered event solutions, including engagement, digital networking, meeting management, enterprise-grade reporting, powerful automation, and workflow capabilities engineered to optimize lead capture, speed follow-up, and quantify event ROI.
“We’ve developed a platform that not only helps businesses capture leads but also provides the tools they need to convert those leads into real business opportunities,” said Aaron Karpaty, senior director of strategic growth at the company. “With the Intelligent Scanner, we’re empowering organizations to make every interaction smarter, faster, and more valuable.”
