Main flow
Getting started is easy. Create a project with just one click by giving it a name. Invite teammates if necessary. When creating a secret, you can choose the vendor from which the secret comes. The form will guide you in filling out the various fields based on the selected vendor.
Project types
We introduced two different project types: one for personal use and one for team environments. Keep your personal secrets in private projects, and share access to API credentials and other secrets in team projects.
Sharing secrets
Quickly share secrets with your team using a private link and a password. You can share any secrets with anyone. The link disappears after it is used or expires based on your settings.
Identifiers
We added emojis and text identifiers for easier navigation between projects projects. This approach contributes to safety — you’ll never accidentally share a secret with a wrong team.
