The sticker stays put. You just change where it goes.

Works for every tag you own. Takes 30 seconds. No app download needed - just log in and change it.

Dynamic QR Code Management

Link Preview = Professional

Before sending someone to your website, show them a quick preview.

What they see:

  • Page title
  • Description
  • Image preview
  • Your branding

What you get:

  • Professional appearance
  • Builds trust instantly
  • People know what to expect

Turn it on or off per tag. Your choice.

Link Preview Feature

One QR Code, Two Experiences

Customers scan → See your menu/product info

You scan → Access management dashboard or BI System

Same code, different views based on who's scanning. Smart.

Perfect for: Equipment with customer info + internal tracking, rental items, service points

Redirect Authenticated Feature

Track Every Scan

See who scanned, when, and where.

Each scan logs:

  • Date and time
  • Location (if GPS enabled)
  • Device type (iPhone, Android, etc.)
  • Public scan vs. your team

Know exactly how your tags are being used.


Manage Together - Group Your Tags

Got multiple tags on the same equipment? Group them together.

Why Assets Matter

Update once, all connected tags change.

Example: Coffee machine has 3 tags (front, side, back). Update the asset once → all 3 tags redirect to the new link.

No more updating tags one by one.

Manage Together - Assets

The app knows where you are. It shows nearby equipment first.

Your technician opens the app → Closest 3 machines show up at the top.

No more "which warehouse was that in again?"

Location-Based Filtering

History Automatically Tracked

Every scan. Every status change. Every update.

Who did it, when they did it, where they were.

Team Management

See What Your Team Is Doing

Check activity logs anytime:

  • Who scanned what
  • When they were there
  • What changes they made

Not about micromanaging. About knowing what's happening.


The Map (Game Changer)

See Everything At Once

Open the map. Every piece of equipment shows up.

Click any marker → See details instantly.

Zoom in → See street-level location.

Zoom out → See your whole operation.

Map View

Find Equipment Geographically

"Show me everything in downtown New York." "Which machines are within walking distance?" "What's our closest equipment to this customer?"

The map answers these instantly.

Visual Inventory Management

See where your stuff actually is.

Spot patterns:

  • "Most of our equipment is in Zone 3"
  • "Nothing in the west location this month"
  • "New York has way more than we thought"

Sometimes seeing beats reading reports.


Analytics That Actually Matter

Who's Scanning Your Codes

See every scan:

  • Customer or team member?
  • What time?
  • What device (iPhone, Android, etc.)?
  • Where (if GPS is on)?

Tells you: Are customers actually using these codes?

Busiest Equipment/Locations

Which items get scanned most? Which locations are busiest?

Use this to:

  • Know what's getting attention
  • Spot unused equipment
  • Understand traffic patterns

Customer vs. Team Activity

Separate view for public scans vs. internal scans.

Why this matters:

  • Customer scans = engagement
  • Team scans = operational activity

Track both separately. Understand both patterns.

"Do I have to use everything?" No. Use what helps. Ignore the rest.

"Can I mess something up?" Not really. Everything can be changed back. Experiment freely.

"Is this hard?" If you can use a smartphone, you can use this. Most features are point-and-click.
