For trades pros — and anyone who installs, services, or owns gear that matters
One sticker.
Permanent archive.
Documentation that stays with the equipment.
Stick it on a furnace, a boat, a control panel, a job-site safety binder, a tool, or a vehicle. Anyone who scans it later — the next technician, an inspector, or a new owner — can pull up every manual, photo, warranty, and service record you uploaded. No app. No login. Just scan.
$49 CAD to unlock an archive · First roll of 25 stickers is free
The problem
“Who installed this? What’s under warranty? When was it last serviced?”
Five years later, the manual is in a moving box. The invoice is in a dead email. The phone number on the side of the truck has changed. And nobody remembers which model is on the wall. QRchive puts the answers right on the thing itself — and keeps them there, long after everyone’s forgotten.
How it works
Four steps.
Eight minutes of work.
Documented forever.
The sticker is the whole interface. There’s no app to download for the next person who scans it, no account to set up, no login screen to remember a decade from now.
Stick it
Peel a QRchive sticker from the roll and apply it to whatever you want documented. No drilling, no wiring — it adheres cleanly to any flat surface.
Unlock it
Log into your dashboard and unlock the sticker for $49. That opens a private archive, yours for the operational life of whatever you stuck it to.
Upload everything
Drop in manuals, warranties, reports, photos. Or email files straight to the archive’s unique inbound address.
Scan, years later
Anyone who scans it — the next person who owns it, services it, inspects it — sees every document in their browser instantly.
The sticker
Industrial polyester.
Not just software.
QRchive stickers are printed in-house on Z-Ultimate 3000T — the same material used for UL-recognized equipment nameplates. They’re rated for a decade inside a control panel. And they stay inert until you scan them into an account. No charge until that first use.

Who it’s for
One sticker.
For people it has to work for.
For the trades that document what they install: plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, septic and water-system pros, fire protection, marine techs, solar installers, farmers and operators with gear that has to last. And anyone who buys, owns, or services the thing afterward.
When you put it on
A timestamped record of everything you’ve ever stuck a sticker to.
Bill the $49 unlock into the project like any other material. When the callback comes five years later, you already know what’s on the wall.
When someone services it
Open the panel. Scan the sticker. Read before you wrench.
Model number, wiring diagram, photos, last service note — all of it in the browser on a phone. No login, no app to download.
When the thing changes hands
Buy the house, the boat, the rig — inherit the paperwork.
Everything anyone uploaded stays with the thing it’s stuck to — not in someone’s Gmail. Adds value at resale.
When someone needs the records
Design, as-built, and maintenance — in one place.
Scan, pull every permit, commissioning report, and inspection since day one. A paper trail without the paper.
The sticker lives where the work happens — inside the control panel, so the system's full record is one scan away for whoever opens it next.
Pricing · Per archive unlock
You only ever pay when you unlock a sticker. That one-time $49 opens a permanent archive tied to that specific sticker, kept alive for the operational life of whatever you stuck it on — no monthly fee, no subscription trap, no seat license for the next person who scans it. Most buyers bill the unlock through to the client like any other material.

“As a professional septic system designer I saw a real gap in linking records to physical infrastructure. I built QRchive as a simple, low-cost solution that saves property owners money and makes life easier for industry professionals. It’s worked so well that I’m now making it available to everyone.”
