Our Mission

A QR code is a link you cannot read. You point your camera at a square, and whatever is hidden inside it opens. That is the whole problem, and nobody had fixed it. So we did.

The Problem We're Solving

You cannot read a QR code

The pattern of squares tells you nothing. A code for a real payment page and a code for a fake one look exactly alike.

Your camera does not check

It shows you a link and waits for you to tap. It does not ask whether the link is safe, because that was never its job.

Nobody reads the link

The banner appears for a second, in small grey text, while you are standing at a parking meter in the rain. Almost everyone taps straight through it.

A sticker costs four seconds

That is how long it takes to cover a real code with a fake one. On a meter, a menu, a parcel locker. Nobody looks twice at a QR code.

What ScanLikely does

It reads the code, follows the link to wherever it really ends up, and tells you what is there. Before the page loads. Then it gets out of the way.

Links

We follow every redirect to the real destination and check it against threat intelligence blocklists. You see where you are going before you go.

WiFi

A WiFi QR code can join you to any network its author chose. We check what you are about to connect to first.

Payments

Payment codes are the ones worth faking. We check the destination before your card details go anywhere.

Social links

We confirm a profile link goes where it claims, not to a copy built to harvest your login.

Sign-in codes

Login QR codes are a growing target at work. We support WebAuthn, FIDO2, and SSO flows, and check them before you approve.

Our Technology

How it decides

Machine learning models classify QR content types and surface potential threats, backed by threat intelligence blocklists and live redirect analysis.

What stays on your phone

Most analysis happens locally on your device. Your QR code content never leaves your phone unless absolutely necessary.

Kept current

Cloud-based threat detection that updates in real-time to protect against the latest malicious QR campaigns.

Built for enterprise review

Built against SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS control frameworks. Independent audits are not yet complete.

Our Values

User-Centric Design

Every feature is designed to help users accomplish their goals, not to showcase our technology. Security should enable, not hinder.

Privacy by Default

We collect only what's necessary and process most data locally. Your privacy is not a feature, it's a fundamental right.

Continuous Innovation

We're constantly improving our content-aware algorithms to stay ahead of emerging threats and user needs.

Transparency

We're open about how our technology works and what data we collect. No black boxes, no hidden agendas.

Inclusive Security

Security should be accessible to everyone, regardless of technical expertise. We make complex security simple.

Excellence

We strive for excellence in everything we do, from code quality to customer support to user experience.

Looking Forward

We're just getting started. Our roadmap includes:

  • Enhanced AI Capabilities: Even smarter content recognition and threat detection
  • Enterprise Solutions: Advanced management tools for organizations
  • Global Expansion: Supporting more languages and regional security requirements
  • Industry Partnerships: Working with payment providers, WiFi infrastructure companies, and enterprise software vendors
  • Research Initiatives: Contributing to QR security standards and best practices
