A contact suggestion from an email signature

The animation explains the architecture; no live actions are executed.

The sender and date stay with the suggestion.

Signature
  • Name
  • Organisation
  • Phone
  • Preserve source

The signature contains possible contact details, with the email as their source.

Recognise
  • Which sender?
  • Which fields?
  • Which source?
  • Attribute correctly

I first want to identify whose signature it is, including in forwarded email.

Compare
  • Existing contact?
  • Still current?
  • No conflict?
  • Uncertain? Check.

The details are compared with the existing contact and the email date.

Contact proposal
  • Update selectively
  • After approval
  • No blind merging
  • Connect further

I can review a specific addition before it is linked to a person.
