BrewPage vs QR code
BrewPage is a free, account-less content host: a POST to endpoints like brewpage.app/api/html turns HTML, Markdown, JSON, key-value pairs, or a whole multi-file site into a short public URL, protected by an anonymous owner token instead of a login. Pages default to a 15-day TTL (30-day max) and can be password-protected, and the project ships both an MCP server (brewpage-mcp on npm) and a Claude Code plugin for programmatic publishing.
goQR.me's QR code API, served from api.qrserver.com rather than the marketing domain, offers two commands: create-qr-code renders a PNG, SVG, or EPS QR image from a data string, while read-qr-code decodes an existing QR image (by URL or upload) and returns the result as JSON. Run by Foundata GmbH, it imposes no request limit beyond reserving the right to reject abusive traffic, and it logs only the requesting referrer/IP, never the QR content itself.
