Does this sound familiar?

The "Photo" Contact

You ask for an email address, but they send a photo of a business card. Instead of copying, you're stuck manually retyping it letter by letter.

Locked Bank Details

Received an invoice or IBAN as a screenshot? Retyping long numbers is risky—one typo can ruin a transfer. Don't rely on manual entry.

Scanned Docs Barrier

Reading scanned technical docs in a foreign language? Stop switching tabs to Google Translate for every unknown word.

Just highlight, copy, and get on with your work.
