STRICH Barcode Scanning SDK
JavaScript SDK that scans barcodes in the browser, no backend or app needed.
STRICH is a barcode-scanning SDK that runs entirely client-side in the browser: a single sub-1MB JS file with embedded WASM does GPU-accelerated 1D/2D decoding on-device, no backend required. It ships either a drop-in Popup Scanner or an embeddable scanner with its own overlay, camera selector, and flashlight toggle, and covers formats from Code 128 to PDF417 for boarding passes and driver's licenses. Pricing is posted on the site, no sales calls, with a free 14-day trial and unlimited devices.
What holds up
- +Runs fully on-device in the browser, no backend to build and no barcode data leaving the device
- +Single JS file under 1MB with embedded WASM and zero dependencies, a light drop into any framework
- +Pricing is posted on the site with a free 14-day trial, no sales call required to see the cost
Mind the limits
- −Commercial SDK with recurring pricing, not free like the open-source libraries it's benchmarked against
- −Browser-only scanning, teams needing native mobile SDKs will need a separate integration
