One scan and your event is in their calendar.
Fill in what, when and where. Download a code that puts the whole thing into a phone's calendar with one tap — no app, no sign-up, and nothing that needs renewing before the night arrives.
More style options
Light grounds only — the code has to stay darker than what it sits on.
Eight looks, made for things people keep.
Pick one and it fills in the generator above. Every combination has been printed and read back — and the ones meant for small surfaces are drawn without a centre mark, because that alone makes the printed code smaller.
Where these earn their keep
Posters and flyers
The poster is on the wall and the phone is already in their hand. A code turns 'that looks good' into a diary entry before they have finished walking past it.
Invitations and save-the-dates
Printed once and kept on a fridge for months. The details land in the calendar correctly — right date, right time, spelled the way you wrote it — instead of being typed in wrong at somebody's kitchen table.
Tickets, badges and wristbands
Small surfaces where the code still has to work first time. These are the templates drawn without a centre mark, so the code fits the space it has instead of the space it would like.
Questions people ask
What happens when someone scans it?
Their phone offers to add the event to their calendar, and one tap does it — title, time, place and any detail you filled in. Calendars have understood this format for years, so there is nothing to install at either end and nothing for them to sign up to.
Which time zone does it use?
None, and that is deliberate. The time you typed is the time that lands in the calendar, wherever the code is scanned. A poster is read in the place it is hanging, so seven thirty means seven thirty there — converting it would shift the event by an hour for anyone whose phone is set to a different zone than the computer the code was made on, including, most of the time, ours.
What if the date changes after I have printed it?
You would need a new code. The whole event sits inside this one rather than on a page we keep for you, which is why it needs no account, never expires and cannot break because we stopped running something. The trade is that a change of plan means a reprint — so it is worth being sure of the date before a thousand invitations go to the printer.
Can I add a long description?
You can, and it costs you size. Every word is carried in the pattern, so a paragraph makes a denser code that has to be printed larger to stay readable. On a poster that is free. On a wristband it is not — so put the essentials in the code and link to the rest.
Will it still scan printed small?
That is the part we are strict about. The file carries a real physical size rather than just looking right on screen, so print it at one hundred percent and keep the pale border it comes with — that quiet margin is how a scanner finds the code at all. If what you have typed is too much to print reliably, the generator says so instead of handing you something that fails on the night.
