The 60-second explainer

What is tag.vu?

tag.vu turns any object into a smart tag. One tap with a phone opens a page that does exactly the right thing — reach an owner, prove a product is genuine, or log a job — without exposing anyone's private details.

How a tag works

Three simple beats

01

A tiny tag on a thing

A sticker, a keyring, a label or an engraved chip. Inside is an NFC antenna and a printed QR code — no battery, no app required.

02

Someone taps or scans it

Any modern phone reads it — hold it near for NFC, or point the camera at the QR. It opens a secure tag.vu web page. Nothing to install.

03

It does the right thing

The page adapts to who tapped it and why: a finder reaches you, a customer sees a genuine product, a worker logs an inspection.

NFC & QR, no app

Two ways to read one tag

Tap with NFC

Hold your phone near the tag. Near-field communication reads it in an instant — the same tech behind contactless payments. No pairing, no battery.

Scan the QR

No NFC? Point your camera at the printed QR code. It opens the very same secure page. Every tag works both ways, on any phone.

Privacy first

Reachable, never exposed

Private by design

A finder can reach you without ever seeing your phone number, email or address. You choose what a scan reveals.

No app to install

Tags open a normal web page. Owners get a dashboard; everyone else just taps and goes.

You stay in control

Turn a tag on or off, update what it shows, or transfer it — any time, from your account.
