Who each one is for
ME-QR turns the usual model around: dynamic codes, analytics and unlimited scans are free, and the cost is paid by the people who scan, who see a Google advert before your content appears. The free plan allows 10,000 codes with a year of analytics history; Lite ($9.99 a month) makes a single code ad-free; Premium ($15.99 a month) makes every code ad-free and adds per-scan email alerts, API access and 500 MB of storage.
It suits a personal project where an interstitial advert is acceptable. It does not suit a menu, a business card or a product label, because the advert lands on your customer. QR Studio never shows an advert to anyone at any tier.
Where QR Studio is better
- No adverts, ever. Not in the app, not on scan, on free or paid. ME-QR’s free codes show an advert on every scan and the fix costs $15.99 a month.
- Price of ad-free. QR Studio Pro is $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year, including dynamic codes and analytics.
- Lifetime. $69.99 once. ME-QR has none.
- AI design partner. Not offered.
- Print-ready PDF and SVG from a phone. ME-QR’s pricing page names no export format.
- Offline. QR Studio works without a connection.
- Static codes. QR Studio’s static codes have no server behind them and cannot be interrupted.
Where ME-QR is better
- Free dynamic codes. Editable destinations at no charge, with the advert.
- Free analytics. A year of history on the free plan.
- Scale. 10,000 codes free, 100,000 on Lite, 1,000,000 on Premium.
- Frames. More than 1,000.
- Teams. Multi-user access on the free plan.

Switching
ME-QR codes resolve through ME-QR and carry its advert. Create the QR Studio replacement, reprint, and the advert is gone from that print. The old ME-QR code keeps working on the free plan for anything you cannot reprint yet.
