AI Lead Capture & Enrichment Service
1. Introduction to AI EdgeCapture™
Overview of AI Lead Capture & Enrichment Service
AI EdgeCapture™ is a proprietary lead capture and enrichment service from momencio, specifically designed to streamline and enhance the process of gathering high-quality lead data at events. By leveraging AI-driven Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology and machine learning, AI EdgeCapture™ transforms simple scans of badges, name tags, and business cards into enriched, actionable lead profiles.
Using the momencio app on a mobile or tablet device, exhibitors and visitors alike can instantly capture attendee information, which is then automatically processed through AI EdgeCapture™ to extract, validate, and enrich critical contact details. This enriched data, including information such as job titles, business emails, and LinkedIn profiles, becomes valuable for post-event engagement and follow-up.
Purpose and Key Use Cases
AI EdgeCapture™ was created to address the challenges often encountered when gathering accu-rate and comprehensive lead data at events. Traditional methods can result in incomplete data or require extensive manual entry, while event APIs are often costly or inaccessible to individual at-tendees. AI EdgeCapture™ overcomes these issues by offering an automated and enriched lead capture solution that operates independently of event-specific APIs, making it accessible to both exhibitors and individual attendees.
In addition to in-event scanning, AI EdgeCapture™ also extends its capabilities through the mo-mencio web portal. This enables users to perform enrichment prior to events—for example, by up-loading attendee lists or pre-qualified prospects to ensure profiles are complete before the first meeting. Similarly, after the event, the web portal can be used for post-event enrichment, ensuring any missing details from on-site scans are filled in and that enriched data is fully leveraged for fol-low-up campaigns.
Key Use Cases
- Exhibitors at Trade Shows and Conferences: AI EdgeCapture™ is ideal for high-traffic events where fast lead capture is essential. Exhibitors can scan attendee badges and enrich contact data for timely follow-up or later engagement.
- Individual Attendees without API Access:
For individual attendees or visitors at an event where API access is restricted or unavailable, AI EdgeCapture™ provides a reliable alternative. Attendees can scan the business cards or badges of other participants, ensuring that each connection is captured and enriched for follow-up without requiring access to the event’s official lead retrieval system.
1. Networking Events: At networking-focused gatherings, AI EdgeCapture™ allows for efficient capture of business card or badge details, ensuring that every connection is stored as a rich lead profile for future outreach.
2. Corporate Events and Product Launches: For private corporate events or product launches, AI EdgeCapture™ helps companies capture detailed attendee data, enabling more personalized post-event engagement strategies.
2. How AI EdgeCapture™ Works

This add-on ensures that users can tailor their lead enrichment needs according to event size, expected lead volume, and specific follow-up strategies.
Credit System Overview
The AI EdgeCapture™ credit system operates on a 1 Credit = 1 Enrichment basis. Each enrichment uses one credit, which covers the AI-powered data processing to add extra information (e.g., job title, work email, LinkedIn profile) to a captured lead profile, as well as company enrichment when feasible. This credit-based model ensures that users can scale enrichment according to their unique event needs and budget.
- Single Use Credits: Each credit applies to a single enrichment instance – including both contact and company records
- Per-Lead Basis: Credits are consumed on a per-lead basis, meaning that each enriched lead profile (with its associated company data) deducts one credit from the account balance.
- Flexible Timing: Credits can be applied to enrich leads captured during the event via the mobile app, as well as to records uploaded before or after the event through the web portal. This ensures users can prepare in advance, enrich on the spot, or complete enrichment post-event as needed.
Credit Usage Example
For example, if an exhibitor anticipates capturing and enriching 100 leads at a trade show, they can purchase 100 credits. After scanning badges and syncing data, each lead’s profile will consume one credit during the enrichment process, providing enriched details such as job title, LinkedIn profile, work email , and company information Alternatively, the exhibitor could upload a pre-event attendee list through the web portal, use credits to enrich those records in advance, and then reserve additional credits for post-event enrichment of newly captured leads.
