How ShieldTag works

ShieldTag is a QR tag you stick on anything you want to stay reachable — a car, a pet, a bag, a child's backpack. Anyone who finds it scans the code and reaches you through a private relay. No app for them to install, no number ever shown, on either end.

  1. 1

    Stick the tag

    Peel and stick it on whatever you want to protect.

  2. 2

    Someone scans it

    Anyone with a phone camera can scan it and reach you.

  3. 3

    You get the message

    It lands as a text. Your number stays hidden on both ends.

Get the tag

ShieldTag ships as a physical, durable tag — today, ordering runs through the waitlist below; once it's open, it arrives by mail ready to activate.

How replies reach you

It lands as a text

A finder's message reaches you as a text, with push and email alerts too.

Reply through the relay

Reply if you want — your number is never shared with the finder, on either end.

Masked video, on Plus

Plus adds approval-gated contact and masked video calling — you see them, they never see your number.

Your controls

Pause your tag

Turn scanning off for a tag any time — turn it back on whenever.

Block a sender

One nuisance scan and you can block that conversation for good.

See every contact

Every scan and message is logged in your dashboard — nothing happens invisibly.
