Why SaferScans Exists
Blind Clicks & Hidden Malicious Targets
QR codes hide their destination URLs until scanned. Attackers take advantage of this by placing stickers over legitimate QR codes in public places or distributing fake invoices.
Pre-Execution Safety Inspection
SaferScans decodes QR codes locally, extracts the apex domain, highlights Unicode homograph attacks, and checks for link shorteners — giving you complete transparency before opening any URL.
Our Core Principles
1. Privacy is Non-Negotiable
Your camera stream, uploaded image files, and scan history never leave your browser. Zero cloud uploads.
2. Security Through Transparency
We break down raw URLs into readable components so you can spot spoofed domains before clicking.
3. Open Source & Accessible
