About Krypt
Krypt exists for people who do not want their passwords, files, notes, recovery codes, and private media concentrated in someone else's cloud database.
It is built as a local-first, zero-knowledge vault: encryption and decryption happen on your device, optional sync carries encrypted data only, and recovery is designed around materials you control.
Why we built Krypt
Most security products ask users to trade privacy for convenience. Krypt is designed around a different default: private material should remain under the owner's control unless they intentionally choose otherwise.
Reduce cloud exposure
A password manager should not turn every user's vault into part of a high-value server target. Krypt keeps sensitive data local by default.
Protect more than passwords
Accounts include notes, recovery codes, IDs, files, photos, and backup instructions. Krypt treats that full context as vault data.
Plan for real pressure
Privacy can fail when someone is forced to unlock a device. Separate vaults and a decoy vault give users more control in those moments.
Principles that guide the product
The problem with centralized vaults
Cloud-first vaults can be convenient, but they also create concentrated breach targets and push recovery into systems the user does not fully control.
Krypt's approach
Krypt starts local, encrypts before sync, keeps vault spaces isolated, and gives users a physical Recovery Kit path for device loss scenarios.
