Capture new contacts while the context is fresh
A business card shared with a clear capture request in Slack can start an Extracta ai extraction while the introduction is still fresh.

Why this helps
Contact details from events and introductions often remain trapped in photos while the context fades.
- Reduces manual transcription from card photos
- Keeps contact capture close to the introduction
- Makes follow-up less likely to slip after an event

- 1Connect Slack and Extracta ai to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations or ask Notis conversationally to set it up.
- 3Give one plain-language instruction to start an Extracta ai extraction when a channel message shares a business card image and asks to capture its details.
- 4Pick Slack Channel Message Received and choose the channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real card image and a clear request to extract its contact details.
