A while back I printed a batch of materials with a QR code on them. Then the link needed to change. The code was already out in the world - so it was now pointing at the wrong place, permanently. And I had no idea if a single person had even scanned it.
That's the thing most people don't realize about a basic QR code: it's frozen the moment it's created. Wrong link? Reprint everything. Want to know if it worked? You can't.
So I built QRhubly - a QR code hub that fixes both problems.
Two parts:
A free generator that's actually good. Most free QR tools spit out an ugly black square or hide customization behind a signup. QRhubly's is free, client-side, and lets you fully style it - colors, gradients, logos, frames, shapes - and export PNG/SVG/JPEG/WebP. No account needed.
Dynamic codes + analytics (the real product). Create a dynamic QR code and you can edit where it points anytime, even after it's printed. Plus you get scan analytics: where, when, what device, peak times - exportable to CSV. One code, fully editable, fully tracked.
The model: free generator as the top of funnel, then a free trial of dynamic codes (live 7 days or 50 scans), and a Pro plan ($7/mo or $59/yr) to keep them live forever with unlimited codes. There's even an AI artistic-QR feature (BYOK) that turns codes into scannable art.
Stack: Next.js + Supabase + Vercel, built solo. Live at qrhubly.com.
I'd love feedback - especially on the free generator (try it, no signup) and whether the trial model feels fair or annoying. What would make you reach for QRhubly over the QR tool you currently use?
What a clever idea. I really like the webpage also, it looks amazing.
Thanks, really happy you like it :)
