GULP. Mobile App. Meet.Gulp.Connect.

What is GULP? And What does it do?
Basically, GULP makes business cards obsolete.
With a simple tap, two people can instantly exchange the contact details they choose to share—phone, email, website, social profiles, résumé, and more. No typing numbers, no QR-code juggling, and no forgotten cards at the bottom of a bag.
Here’s how it works: users create a polished GULP profile by adding their name, photo, short introduction, profession, contact details, social links, and—if relevant—their résumé. Before sharing, they decide exactly what is visible using simple on/off controls for every item.
When two GULP users meet, both open the app’s sharing screen and bring their phones close together. Using NFC, GULP securely exchanges the information each person has chosen to share. The recipient immediately sees a sleek digital profile and can save the phone number, add the email, visit a website, follow social accounts, or keep the profile in their GULP directory.
Unlike a paper card, GULP stays current. If someone changes their email, phone number, role, or social profile, they can update their GULP profile and re-share it—updating the existing connection instead of creating another duplicate contact.
Built for iPhone and Android, GULP turns real-world introductions into useful, living connections: beautiful, private by design, always current, and ready in one tap.
GULP. Meet. Gulp. Connect.
