MedTags is a keychain tag that opens its owner's emergency information by NFC tap or QR scan, without an app or sign-in for the person helping.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-06 issue.
For
People with medical conditions and their caregivers
Worth noticing
The tag combines NFC and a QR code under a swing-open lid; owners choose which information appears to a stranger.

Field notes

The setup flow uses a claim card with a one-time code, after which the owner fills in the page and selects which fields are shown to a person scanning the tag. A sample page puts communication guidance and allergies near the top, with conditions, medications, notes, and update date below. The site says owners can update details by signing in and receive a six-month reminder.
