FOUNDER'S NOTE

A Letter From the Founder

This card started in the field.

“I'm an Indigenous journalist based in Minneapolis. TapRoot grew out of a simple problem: meeting people with powerful work to share, then trying to keep the follow-up from getting lost.”

Reporting, filming, and community work can create a trail of business cards, phone numbers, links, and social handles. The people behind them are often doing careful, meaningful work, and a paper card does not always carry enough context.

TapRoot is being built for people who want a practical way to share contact details, links, and a few selected stories without turning their profile into a full website.

Why We Exist

For everyone carrying a bigger story.

Business cards have barely changed. Networking has not kept up with how people actually move through the world.

Native professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs often move between community spaces, conferences, client meetings, events, and online audiences. TapRoot is designed for that reality.

A living profile updates when you do. The physical card is the tap device. The public profile carries your contact details, links, and selected portfolio stories in one place.

Why We Exist

For everyone carrying a bigger story.

Business cards haven't changed in 400 years. Networking hasn't kept up with how we actually move through the world.

Native professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs navigate spaces that weren't built for us — and still show up, excel, and build community everywhere we go. TapRoot is designed for that reality.

A living profile that updates when you do. Hardware that feels good in your hand. Designs made by local artists.
