QR codes you actually need

The type is detected as you type — link, Wi-Fi, contact card, menu and more. Style it, then export watermark-free.

Static or dynamic?

Two kinds of code — both start free

The generator above makes static codes. Need to change where a printed code points, or count scans? That’s a dynamic code.

Static codesFree forever

The code encodes your data directly. It works forever, doesn’t route through our servers, and needs no account. This is what most people need — and it’s always free.

Dynamic codesFree to start

One printed code whose destination you can edit any time, with built-in scan analytics and folders — for menus, campaigns and signage. Free covers your first 3 codes and 7 days of analytics; Pro lifts those for heavy use.

Sign up or sign in to make an editable dynamic QR code — it’s free.

For developers & AI agents

Developer-friendly. Agent-friendly.

OpenQR isn’t just a generator — it’s an API. Drive it from your code, your no-code tools, or an AI assistant.

AI agents via MCP

Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw and other assistants create, edit and track QR codes through the Model Context Protocol — one hosted endpoint, thirteen tools, plain-English.

REST API & SDK

A clean REST API for generation and dynamic-code management, a typed TypeScript SDK, and pre-built integrations for Zapier, n8n and Raycast.

FAQ

Questions, answered

OpenQR is open source under the AGPL-3.0 licence. Read why it’s free or our privacy approach.

Is OpenQR really free?
Yes — the generator is completely free, with no watermark, no size limit and no sign-up, generated right in your browser. Editable dynamic codes, scan analytics and the API are free to use too; a low-cost Pro tier only lifts the limits for heavy users (unlimited dynamic codes and full analytics history).
Do the QR codes have a watermark?
Never. Unlike most online QR code generators, OpenQR never adds a watermark or logo to your codes, on any format or size.
Do the QR codes expire?
No. OpenQR creates static QR codes that encode your data directly. They work forever and don't route through our servers, so they can't be switched off or held hostage.
Can I download a high-resolution or vector QR code for print?
Yes. Export PNG or WebP up to 4096px, or true-vector SVG and PDF that scale to any size — perfect for business cards, posters and banners.
Can I add my logo and brand colours?
Yes. Add a logo, choose colours and gradients, change the dot and corner styles, and add a “Scan me” frame — all free.
What if my QR code won't scan?
Most scan failures come down to a handful of causes: the code is too small for the distance, low-contrast, missing its quiet-zone margin, or a setting on the phone. Our troubleshooting guide walks through every cause, with device-specific fixes for iPhone and Android. Read the troubleshooting guide.
Is it private?
Very. Your QR content is generated entirely in your browser and never uploaded. There are no accounts and no tracking of what you create.
