Printed on paper, but never stuck pointing at one place

Every code encodes a permanent short link rather than the destination itself, so changing where it points never means reprinting anything, even after it is already on a flyer or a business card. Every scan is counted, with the device type and where it came from, and never anything personal.

Why this exists

  • The QR code on ten thousand flyers points at a page that got renamed last week.
  • Nobody can say whether the poster by the till has ever actually been scanned.
  • A static code generator hands you a picture and nothing else once it is printed.

What it does

What it does

  1. 01Create a code in seconds

    Give it a name, a permanent short link (/q/your-slug) and a destination, any https:// URL or an in-app path like /booking, pick a colour, preview it live, and download a print-ready PNG.

  2. 02Retarget it after it is already printed

    Edit the destination and the same printed code immediately points somewhere new, with nothing to reprint. Pause a code to switch it off without deleting it.

  3. 03Track every scan

    A running total per code, plus a recent-scan feed with the time, a coarse device class and the referring host, exportable to CSV. No personal data is captured.

  4. 04Warn a scanner before sending them off-platform

    When a code’s destination is not a WorkBOS page, the scan shows the exact link and asks for a tap to continue rather than redirecting instantly, so a destination changed to somewhere unexpected cannot catch anyone off guard.

  5. 05Keep creating and deleting safe

    Creating, editing and deleting a code follow your workspace’s own per-page rules, enforced by the database rather than only hidden in the screen. Deleting a code permanently kills its printed link.

The honest part

What it does not do

The part you would otherwise find out in week three. If one of these is central to how you work, raise it before you buy rather than after.

Questions

Questions, answered

Can I change where a code points after printing it?

Yes, that is the whole point. The printed code encodes a permanent short link rather than the destination itself, so editing the destination repoints the same physical code straight away.

What do I find out about a scan?

A running scan count, plus a recent-scan feed showing the time, a coarse device type and the referring site. WorkBOS never captures anything personal about who scanned it.

Is QR codes on the Free plan?

Yes. QR codes ship on the Free plan, with no separate charge for creating or tracking them.

What happens if I delete a code by mistake?

There is no undo. Deleting a code permanently kills the short link, so anything already printed with that code stops working for good.
