BoothIQ

BoothIQ is event lead-capture software for collecting contacts from badges, cards, profiles, and notes, then preparing follow-up. It suits solo reps and event teams that want offline capture and AI-assisted outreach. Its strongest case is the capture-to-follow-up workflow; its main trade-off is that CRM sync sits behind Enterprise.

Overview

BoothIQ brings several event lead sources into one workflow: scan badges, capture business cards and LinkedIn profiles, or record handwritten notes. It can summarize notes and voice memos and draft personalized follow-up emails for review. Offline capture is useful at venues with unreliable connectivity, with leads syncing once the device is back online.

Badge scanning supports multiple badges in one photo, and photos can also be uploaded from the camera roll. That makes collection more flexible, though the plan choice matters if the resulting contacts need to flow directly into a CRM.

Key features

Capture, enrichment, and follow-up

BoothIQ combines lead qualification and enrichment with voice-to-text notes, AI summaries, and draft emails. Drafts are for review, so the software assists with follow-up rather than sending messages on the user's behalf. Team adds premium enrichment, while Individual includes email and LinkedIn enrichment.

Integrations and data handling

HubSpot and Salesforce synchronization is reserved for Enterprise; Individual and Team rely on CSV export. Enterprise also includes API access. The MCP connection offers read-only, scoped access to meetings, contacts, events, and conversation summaries. Other listed connections include Google and Microsoft calendars and email, plus Slack notifications.

BoothIQ says personal data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with access controls, security monitoring, and regular audits. It says AI providers cannot use submitted data to train their models under contract, and BoothIQ does not train AI models on customer data. After a deletion request, data is removed from active systems within 30 days and backups within 90 days, subject to stated exceptions.

Pricing

BoothIQ has a free Individual plan, a paid Team plan, and custom pricing for Enterprise. There is no free trial.

The free plan has no lead cap, but its CSV export is limited to contact information and it does not include CRM sync. Team removes the listed seat, event, and scan limits, yet its $999 a month price is a substantial step up for teams that only need capture and exports. Enterprise is the necessary tier for HubSpot or Salesforce sync.

Platforms

BoothIQ is available on Android and iOS, with API access included in Enterprise. The API listing should not be confused with CRM synchronization, which is also an Enterprise feature.

Who it's for

BoothIQ is most suitable for solo sales representatives who want a free way to capture and follow up on event leads, and for event teams willing to pay for shared workspaces, unlimited scans, and premium enrichment. Revenue teams that depend on CRM sync, API access, or SSO should consider Enterprise. It is a weaker fit for teams that need direct CRM integration but cannot justify custom Enterprise pricing.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Offline capture and later syncing keep lead collection usable when event connectivity is poor.
• Pro: Multiple badges can be scanned in one photo, and badge photos can be uploaded from the camera roll.
• Pro: The free Individual plan includes unlimited leads, enrichment, AI drafts, and offline mode.
• Con: CRM sync is Enterprise-only, leaving lower tiers with CSV export instead.
• Con: Team costs $999 a month even though its listed exports remain CSV-based.
• Con: Individual's CSV export contains contact information only, limiting its usefulness for fuller event-data workflows.

Alternatives

For a broader category comparison, browse Event Lead Capture Software. Choose LeadSuccess if its free Basic plan's 5 app licenses, ticket QR capture, and Excel export better suit a marketing package. ExpoPlatform offers a free plan for up to 30 participants, which may suit a small event with that cap.

LeadLens is worth considering if 25 lifetime scans and one show workspace on its free plan are enough, or if its Starter plan at $29 a month better matches a lower-volume budget. Pick Meetopio if its free seat limits—one active event, 10 voice captures and scans per month, and 15 AI drafts—fit your usage. Cvent is an alternative with a registration product that can be tried for free. Grip Onsite, Webex Events Onsite, and Bravura Onsite Check-In are other paid options.

Verdict

BoothIQ is a strong fit for solo reps and event teams that value offline lead capture, enrichment, and prepared follow-up, especially if CSV export is enough. Choose it for the free Individual plan or Team's shared workspace and unlimited scans; look elsewhere or budget for Enterprise if direct CRM sync is essential.
