AI QR Code Generator

​

Overview

​

How It Works

1. Provide QR content - Enter the URL or text for the QR code
2. Describe the style - Use a text prompt to describe the visual design
3. API generates the QR code - AI creates an artistic QR code that still scans
4. Download and test - Retrieve and verify your QR code works

​

Use Cases

• Marketing materials - Branded QR codes for campaigns
• Event tickets - Artistic codes that match event branding
• Restaurant menus - Stylized codes that fit restaurant aesthetics
• Business cards - Eye-catching professional QR codes
• Product packaging - QR codes that complement packaging design

​

Best Practices

​

Style Prompts

• “Ocean waves with blue and teal colors, flowing organic patterns”
• “Forest landscape with trees and green nature elements”
• “Abstract geometric art in corporate blue and white”
• “Japanese cherry blossoms with pink and white colors”

• “QR code” - The system already knows it’s a QR code
• Conflicting styles that would obscure the code pattern
• Extremely dark or low-contrast designs

​

Ensuring Scannability

• Test every generated QR code - Always verify it scans before using
• Maintain contrast - Lighter backgrounds with darker patterns work best
• Avoid over-complexity - Very busy designs may reduce scan reliability
• Use error correction - The AI maintains error correction for reliability

    style={"art_style": "Watercolor"},
    name="Brand QR Code",
    wait_for_completion=True,
    download_outputs=True,
    download_directory="./outputs/"
)

if result.status == "complete":
    print(f"✅ QR code complete!")
    print(f"Downloaded to: {result.downloaded_paths}")
    print(f"Credits charged: {result.credits_charged}")
else:
    print(f"❌ Job failed with status: {result.status}")
    if hasattr(result, 'error_message'):
        print(f"Error: {result.error_message}")
