How is your tool different from/better than the competition?
We curate the entire process and remove the failure points from running QR Code campaigns on your own or trying to develop mobile optimized web sites. Our platform does both and much more. We render an HTML5 web app experience upon scanning a out of home campaign. Moreover, we allow account holders to maintain creative control of their campaign and provide the ability to optimize campaigns on the fly, even after the hard copy is in the market, by changing the content – copy, pics, videos, etc. And, performance is captured in our built in analytics suite.
