Everything in one place

A whole QR platform, not just a generator

Most makers give you a black-and-white square and call it a day. Scanvas does the art and the brains.

🎨

Artistic by default

Custom dot & eye shapes, gradients, your logo in the middle, call-to-action frames, and one-tap templates.

🔗

Dynamic codes

Point a printed code anywhere and change it later — fix a typo or swap a campaign without reprinting a thing.

📊

Real scan analytics

A world map, scans over time, by hour, device, OS, browser, new vs returning — updating live.

🧠

Smart rules

Send iPhones to the App Store, route by country or language, schedule, password-protect, or A/B test — all on one code.

🔀

Switch & mirror

Flip a code between saved destinations with one click, or link two codes so one always follows the other.

Verified scannable

Every design is decoded and checked before you print it — so a code is never too artistic to scan.

Static or dynamic

Pick how smart your code is

Both look identical. The difference is what happens when someone scans.

🧊 Static

Encodes your content directly. Works forever, no server needed.

  • Free & instant, nothing to maintain
  • Perfect for permanent things (Wi-Fi, a tattoo 😄)
  • Can't be edited or tracked once printed

⚡ Dynamic tracked

Encodes a short link you control — like a P.O. box for the web.

  • See every scan: when, where, what device
  • Change the destination any time, no reprint
  • Device / geo targeting, A/B, password, switch & mirror
Made to look good

Start from a template, make it yours

Every one of these is a real, scannable Scanvas code pointing at this site.

See scans roll in on the dashboard — map, devices, times — and re-point any time.

Scanvas vs everyone else

It's not even close.

Every other QR tool charges $15–40/month for the basics, watermarks your codes, and makes you hand over an email just to download. Here's the full scoreboard:

Questions

Good to know

Is it really free?

Completely. No tiers, no trials, no paywall — designing codes, dynamic tracking, and the full analytics dashboard are all free, and that's the whole point.

What's the difference between static and dynamic codes?

A static code encodes your link directly — it works forever but can't be changed or tracked. A dynamic code encodes a short link we control, so you can see every scan and change where it points anytime, without reprinting.

Do I need an account?

Only for dynamic (tracked) codes — a free account keeps them tied to you and reachable from any device. Static codes need no account at all.

Can I change a code after it's printed?

If it's dynamic, yes — edit the destination or flip it between saved links from your dashboard. The printed code never changes; only where it sends people.

What do you collect when someone scans?

Time, approximate location (city/country), and device — never the scanner's raw IP. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Will a stylized code still scan?

Every design is decoded and verified before you download it, so you'll never print a code that's too artistic to read.
