Our Story

We believe the paper business card is dead.

Over 10 billion paper business cards are printed every year. 88% are thrown away within a week. We're building a smarter, more sustainable way for the world to network.

How It Started

Born from frustration.

KnowUs started in 2024 after our founders returned from a massive tech conference with hundreds of paper cards. Nobody had time to type them into a CRM. Half were lost. The other half ended up in a landfill.

We realized that in an era where we can instantly beam money, photos, and messages globally, the way we exchange professional identity was fundamentally broken. So we built KnowUs — a platform that makes your first impression unforgettable.

What Drives Us

Our Core Values.

The principles that guide every feature we build and every decision we make at KnowUs.

Zero Friction

Networking should feel like magic. We obsess over milliseconds and clicks to make sharing your profile faster than handing out paper.

Radical Sustainability

We don't just want to be carbon neutral — we want to make the paper business card obsolete and actively reduce global waste.

Uncompromising Design

Your professional identity matters. Your digital presence should be just as premium and bespoke as a heavy cardstock card.

Privacy First

Everything encrypted end to end. You choose what's public, revoke access remotely, and we never sell your data to anyone.

Transparency

No hidden fees, no dark patterns, no bait-and-switch pricing. You know exactly what you're paying for and what you get.

Customer Obsessed

Every feature request is read. Every support ticket gets a human reply. We build what our users actually need.
