qrGPT is an AI-powered QR code generator that creates visually appealing QR codes. It is designed for users who want to generate custom, branded QR codes beyond the standard black and white design.

How It Works

The project leverages a diffusion model for AI image generation, likely a fine-tuned Stable Diffusion variant, to render QR codes with artistic styles. It integrates with Replicate for model hosting and inference, Vercel Blob for image storage, and Vercel KV for rate limiting and caching.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install/Run: Deploy to Vercel using the provided button. Requires setting up Replicate, Vercel KV, and Vercel Blob.
• Prerequisites: Replicate API token, Vercel account.
• Links: Deploy to Vercel

Highlighted Details

• Generates "beautiful AI QR Codes" with custom styles.
• Utilizes Next.js App Router for the frontend.
• Powered by Replicate for AI model execution.
• Includes rate limiting via Vercel KV.

Maintenance & Community

• Authors include Hassan El Mghari and Kevin Hou.

Licensing & Compatibility

• License not specified in the README.

Limitations & Caveats

• The project relies heavily on Vercel's ecosystem and Replicate for its core functionality, potentially leading to vendor lock-in.
• No explicit mention of self-hosting the AI model or alternative deployment options beyond Vercel.
