Origin Story

By Kyle Spearrin

The Problem

Password managers were either closed-source (trust us with your passwords) or too complex. An open-source, auditable password manager was needed.

Building It

Launched in 2016. Grew massively after LastPass security breaches drove users to open-source alternatives. Now one of the most trusted password managers.

What It Means

Your password manager should be open source and auditable. You're trusting it with the keys to your digital life.

The Dream

To make secure password management accessible to everyone through open source.
