Los Angeles – September 12, 2026 -- ShareAScan, a patent-pending platform that turns clothing, accessories and everyday objects into scannable digital links, will be featured in this year's Emmy nominee and presenter gift bags.
A single QR code can hold unlimited changing content
Unlike a standard QR code locked to one destination, ShareAScan lets owners swap out what a scan reveals -- text, photos, videos, music, social profiles, portfolios, shops or causes -- without replacing the physical item or code itself.
Two sisters built the platform while still in school
Founders Shara and Kailey Zuckerman run the Maryland-based company as students: Shara studies business, finance and artificial intelligence in college, while Kailey is still in high school. Both have competed in Shark Tank-style contests and the Wharton Global High School Investment Competition.
The idea started with watching people ignore each other in favor of their phones
The sisters said they built ShareAScan after noticing people sitting together while communicating through screens instead of talking directly. "Traditional social media pulls people into a feed. ShareAScan begins in the physical world and can become the start of an actual conversation," said Shara.
Users control every scan, every time
Owners decide what content appears, when it changes and who can view it, letting a single product function as an introduction, business card, portfolio or invitation to connect. No app or username is required to use the platform.
Inclusion in the Emmy gift bags marks a visibility milestone for the young founders' effort to shift smartphone use back toward face-to-face interaction.
