Most shorteners stop at "here's a shorter link." We kept going. Every SHCD.US link routes through us first — which means you get superpowers nobody else gives you.
These are the features people switch to us for. Not hidden behind some enterprise plan. Not "coming soon." They're live. Right now.
Pick a date and time. When it hits, your link (and any QR codes pointing to it) stops working. Poof. Everyone lands on your fallback page instead.
Your link only works during the hours you choose. Outside that window? Fallback page. One printed QR code can serve lunch and dinner menus — automatically.
Put any link behind a password gate. No user accounts. No login system. No database of emails. Just a password page and a working link behind it.
Built-in analytics. Custom branded QR codes. Print-on-demand merch. Plus everything you'd expect from a link shortener — just better.
Pick colors, choose SVG or high-res PNG, add your logo in the center. Your QR code should look like you, not an afterthought.
Generate a QR code, then slap it on t-shirts, mugs, stickers, hats — shipped worldwide. No inventory, no upfront cost. Powered by Printful.
Geography, device types, browsers, time-of-day trends. Know if that yard sign is pulling and which menu items get the most scans.
shcd.us/open-house crushes shcd.us/x7kf92. People click stuff they recognize.
Add campaign parameters without mangling URLs by hand. Know exactly which post, channel, or platform sent each click.
Create links, generate QR codes, pull analytics programmatically. Token-based auth, fair-use credits, no surprises.
Here's how different people are using SHCD.US right now.
QR codes on yard signs that link to the current listing — not a dead Zillow page from 3 months ago. Set them to expire after closing day. Time-gate open house times.
One QR code per table. Updates itself for breakfast → lunch → dinner → happy hour. No monthly SaaS for hosting a PDF. Password-protect your secret menu.
Window decals that link to current inventory — not last quarter's spreadsheet. Update the destination when stock rotates. Expire old promo links automatically.
Registration → live schedule → photo gallery — all from one printed QR code. The destination shifts based on the date. Link dies after the event. No "404" embarrassment.
Trackable short links with automatic UTM tags. Time-gated campaign landing pages. QR codes on print collateral that you can update after they ship.
QR codes on merch that link to your latest release. Change it next month without reprinting. Password-gate exclusives for your Patreon backers.
Create links, generate QR codes, pull analytics — all from your own app or workflow. Token-based auth. Fair-use credits. No surprises.
