You head out alone to train, into the mountains, or on a bike route. If something happens to you, who would know who you are and who to call?
Your emergency contacts, your blood type, your allergies or the medication you take aren't written anywhere a stranger could see. A medic, a rescue team or someone who finds you can only help if they have that information fast.
That's exactly what MEKET is for. A personal QR code that, when scanned with any phone, shows your identity, your emergency contacts and the medical data you've decided to share. No app to read it. No account. No battery.
How to create your QR step by step
Go to www.meketid.com and click "GET STARTED". Create your account with email and password, fill in your profile with whatever you want to make visible — only what's needed in an emergency — and your QR is generated automatically.
You can download it as PDF, image or printable sticker. It fits on a bike helmet, a wristband, a dog collar or a race bib.
What happens when someone scans the QR
A page opens directly in the phone's browser with your name, blood type, allergies, medication, emergency contacts and any notes you've added (for example, "do not move if unconscious"). No download required. No sign-up.
You decide field by field what the public sees. You can have information visible to anyone who scans the code and other data that only appears with a PIN — useful for sensitive details you only want a medic to see.
Why the QR is more useful than your phone
Your phone can be locked, dead, lost on the other side of the trail, or simply in a backpack where no one sees it. The QR is on the outside — on the helmet, the wrist, the chest. Whoever finds you sees it without having to search.
And the QR doesn't need authentication. Point a camera, it reads.
Real-world use cases
- You head out trail running alone in the mountains. A bad fall, you break your ankle. Whoever finds you calls emergency services, but they need to know your blood type and whether you're on anticoagulants. With MEKET, they have it in ten seconds.
- Your father goes out walking the dog. He gets disoriented. Someone finds him and doesn't know who he is. They scan the QR on the dog's collar and you get the call right then.
- A bike ride with a new group. None of them have your partner's number. If you get hit by a car, the QR on the helmet speaks for you.
What it costs
The basic profile is free and always will be. It includes one adult profile, one active digital QR, traveller mode and 7 languages.
If you want to protect your whole family with a single account — up to 15 profiles including children, pets and objects — MEKET+ costs €9.99/year for the first 1,000 founders, price locked for life. See the plans.
The next step
Creating the QR takes 2 minutes. Printing it and placing it, a bit less. Next time you head out alone to train, you'll have a clear answer for anyone asking "who is this person?".
