In-Person Lead Capture, Reinvented

Stop losing the people
you meet in person.

You meet prospects at open houses, events, and meetups. They sign your sheet with a throwaway email — or take your card and forget you by Tuesday. Even when you do follow up, your email lands in spam. FormTact captures verified contacts from a QR scan in 3 seconds. Your auto-reply lands in their primary inbox — because they emailed you first.

The Inbox Advantage

Your follow-up lands in
their primary inbox.

Because they started the conversation — not you.

✗ Traditional follow-up

2
You email them hours later — coldFrom a domain they don't recognize, competing with spam.

Auto-reply in 10 secondsA reply in the same thread — not cold outreach. While they're still in front of you.

Primary inbox. Every time.Replies in existing threads bypass spam filters entirely. No throwaway address can intercept it.

The Plan

60 seconds to your first capture.

No code. No integrations. No training.

01

Create a Tact

Name it, brand it, get a unique link and QR code — we call each one a Tact. Print it on your business card, open house sign, or event badge. Takes 30 seconds.

🔗 formtact.io/s/742-elm
02

They scan & hit Send

They scan your QR or click your link. Their email app opens with a pre-filled message. One tap to send. No typing, no forms, no shared iPad.

✉️ mike.chen@gmail.com → Send
03

Verified lead, instantly

FormTact automatically reads their name and email from the message they sent — no typing, no transcription — and confirms it's a real, working address. Verified contact in your dashboard while they're still in front of you.

Verified real sender · in your dashboard in seconds

The aha moment isn't creating the Tact.

It's the first time you see a real person's name and verified email appear in your dashboard — seconds after they scanned your QR at the open house, the networking event, the meetup. Every other lead-capture mechanism asks the prospect to promise they'll read your follow-up. FormTact asks them to demonstrate it — by sending the first message from the inbox they actually use.

Their Side

Worried it'll feel weird to your clients?

It won't. From their phone, it's three taps and they're done — faster and more familiar than signing a clipboard. Here's exactly what they experience.

They see your name, not ours. The page is branded to you. Your reply comes from you — FormTact runs quietly in the background.

Nothing to install, nothing to type. They use the email app already on their phone. No app download, no account, no password.

They get a real reply in seconds. Not a marketing blast — a direct reply to the message they just sent, in their main inbox.

1
Scan the QR codeOn your sign, card, or badge. Their camera opens a page branded to you.
2
Tap "Share my contact"Their email app opens with your message already filled in.
3
Hit SendDone. Your reply with the details lands in their inbox seconds later.
🛡️
Built for compliance, by design. Every contact opted in by emailing you first — so there are no purchased lists, no cold sends, and no CAN-SPAM or GDPR exposure from the capture itself. You only ever follow up with people who chose to reach you. (Not legal advice — your own outreach is still yours to manage.)
The Live Feed

Display the live feed at your open house, trade show booth, or office. Watch leads stream in with verified badges in real time. People see others sharing their contact and want to join in. It's social proof in motion.

What Happens If You Don't

You met 20 people this week.

1
They signed the clipboard. Or took your card.You got 20 names. Feels productive.
2
Half gave you a throwaway email.People have learned to defend against follow-up. They give emails they don't check — and you have no way to tell until it bounces.
3
You follow up hours later. The window is closed.Leads contacted in 5 minutes are 21× more likely to convert. You weren't at your desk in 5 minutes. Nobody is.
4
Your email lands in Promotions.Gmail doesn't know you. Your follow-up is cold outreach from an unfamiliar sender. 1 in 5 never reach the inbox at all.
5
20 conversations. Zero closings.You did the hard part — you met them in person. Then the follow-up system failed you.
✓ With FormTact, same 20 people

20 verified contacts in your dashboard in real time. Auto-reply in their primary inbox within 10 seconds — not from a list, but as a reply to a conversation they started. No throwaway emails. No bounces. No Promotions tab. You follow up while they're still thinking about you.

Every person you meet
deserves a real follow-up.

The act of sending is the qualification. The thread is the deliverability. The reply is the relationship.
