Why Automate Business Card Generation?
Designing individual business cards for every team member is slow and inconsistent. HR teams spend hours updating cards for new hires, role changes, and office relocations. Event organizers need unique cards for hundreds of attendees.
With Templated, design your business card template once with your brand guidelines, then generate personalized cards automatically. Connect to your HR system, CRM, or event platform — cards are generated instantly when employees are onboarded or attendees register.
How It Works
Three steps to automated business card generation

Start from our professional templates or create your own. Add your company logo, brand colors, fonts, and layout following your brand guidelines.
Connect Your Data
Integrate with your HR system, employee directory, or event registration. Map names, titles, emails, and phone numbers to template fields.
