The HSN family
"qr-cow started because a friend's café kept reprinting their menu every time a price changed. The first fix took forty lines of code.

qr-cow is built by the HSN family, no funding, no sales team. If you ask a question, one of us answers. The longer story →

Free forever plan. No credit card. Two minutes to your first tracked scan.
Product updates, playbooks, and notes from the team.
Sign in once, save every QR you make, edit dynamic codes after you print them, and pull scan analytics from country down to hour-of-day. The free static studio stays free — accounts only unlock the bits that need a server.
