Pass it on: any page as a code to scan or a slip to print

Sometimes the person who could use a page is standing right in front of you, and nobody wants to spell out a web address. Pick any of the free tools and guides on this site. Show its code on your screen for their phone camera, or print a sheet of small slips to cut apart and hand out, leave at a front desk or tuck into a bag.

This page needs JavaScript to draw the codes and the slips. Without it, the posters are ready to print as they are, and the free tools lists every page with its address.

Private by design. This page saves nothing and sends nothing: what you tick is gone when you close or reload it. It runs no analytics or tracking. Each code holds only the plain address of the page, with no tracking tag, so we cannot tell who scanned a slip, or whether anyone did. How we handle privacy.

Good to know

What is on a slip

The name of the page, as the page itself says it.
A code that opens the page when a phone camera is pointed at it.
The address in plain letters, for typing on a library computer or a phone that will not read codes.
Three short lines: that the page is free and needs no sign-up, that it was written with AI, and that 988 and 911 are the numbers for a crisis or an emergency in the U.S.
A slip for a Spanish page is printed in Spanish, whichever page you made it from.

What this page can’t do

It cannot tell which page is right for the person in front of you. You know them; it does not. The free tools page sorts everything by what is going on.
A slip is not a referral, and it is not advice. It is a pointer to a page that a person can read or not.
A slip does not update. The pages get corrected over time; paper does not. We mean to keep every address working, and cannot promise it.
A slip is no use without a way to get online. For someone with no phone or no data, a printed page may be kinder: most of the tools have a print button.
988 and 911 are not ours. Scarlet Beast is not a crisis line and does not answer calls.

Printing and cutting

One sheet of Letter or A4 holds 8 larger slips or 12 smaller ones. Black and white is fine.
In the print window, choose 100% or “actual size”, and turn off headers and footers if you can.
Cut along the dashed lines. Scissors do; a paper trimmer is quicker.
Fill the sheet with copies repeats what you chose until the sheet is full, so one page can become eight slips.
Most phone cameras read these codes by themselves. Some older phones need a code-reader app.

Ways people might use it

A bowl of slips at a front desk, a food pantry table or a school office.
A few in an outreach bag, next to the socks and the water.
The code on your own screen, across a table, when a friend says something is wrong.
A slip in a card or a lunch box, for someone who would rather read alone.

These are everyday ideas in our own words. Nobody has tested them, and they do not suit everyone or every place: ask before leaving paper somewhere that is not yours.

Pages that go with this

Posters to print: six full-page posters with codes, for a wall.
Take the help with you: save the tools so they open without a signal.
When you’re worried about someone: what to say, and what to do next.
All the free tools, and search.

If the person in front of you may be in danger right now, call 911. If they are thinking about ending their life, call or text 988 (in the U.S.) with them, or open Get help now. A slip is not for that moment.

A pointer, not a service. The pages these slips open are general information and self-help tools written with AI. They are not medical, legal or money advice, and they do not replace a doctor, a lawyer, a caseworker or a crisis line.

This page and its wording were written with AI (Claude) for Scarlet Beast (our AI policy). The codes are made by a program when the site is built, and every one was read back by a computer to check that it opens the right address. They have not yet been tried by people with real phones and printers. Also in Spanish: Pásalo. Found a mistake? Email [email protected].
