The Pawscout Tag
Their profile, on the collar.
A durable QR tag that opens the same living rescue profile a shared link does — straight from the collar. Battery-free, never out of date, and entirely optional.
Ordering is by email for now — online checkout is coming soon.
Why add one
Your pet’s identity lives in their profile, with or without a Tag. Here’s what the Tag adds.
Collars get checked first
The first thing a stranger does is look at the collar. The Tag turns every phone camera on the street into a way to reach you — no app, no account, no typing.
Never out of date
An engraved tag dies the day you move or change numbers. The Tag opens your pet’s living profile, so one edit in the app is current on the collar, instantly, forever.
Nothing to charge
It’s a QR code on durable, pet-safe hard plastic. No battery, no Bluetooth, no radio — nothing to die at the worst possible moment.
What a scan does
One scan, and the right things happen
The Tag does exactly one job, and it does it without asking the finder for anything.
What is printed on it
7KQ2MD
A code and its QR — no name and no phone number on the collar. The profile decides what to share.
Sample — scan it. A real Tag opens the pet’s profile.
A finder scans it
Any phone camera reads the code and opens your pet’s rescue profile on the web — photo, the details you chose to share, one-tap ways to reach you.
You know right away
Pawscout sends you an email and a push notification the moment the profile is opened from a scan. No wondering whether anyone has seen them.
The finder stays anonymous
You see the time, the kind of device, and a rough location only if the finder chooses to share one. Never who they are, unless they reach out.
With Protect, every scan is kept
A full history with timestamps and map pins — even when a finder never leaves a message.
