For developers

Security you can read.

Bitsecrets is built on an audited open-source core and an open protocol. No secret sauce where it matters — just cryptography you can verify and data you can take anywhere.

Under the hood

Nothing you have to take on faith

Bitwarden SDK

Audited, open-source crypto core

Open protocol

Bitwarden-compatible sync API

Your server, your choice

Cloud or self-hosted

Open foundations

Three deliberate choices that make Bitsecrets verifiable instead of merely promising.

Audited open-source core

The cryptography inside Bitsecrets is the battle-tested, independently audited Bitwarden SDK — public code, not a homegrown scheme you have to take on faith.

An open protocol

Sync speaks the openly documented Bitwarden-compatible API. The data format is public and widely implemented — no proprietary layer between you and your vault.

Self-hosting friendly

Point the app at your own compatible server and keep every encrypted byte on infrastructure you control. The encryption works the same everywhere.

Your infrastructure

Bring your own server

Bitsecrets connects to any Bitwarden-compatible server — including one you run yourself. Change the server URL in the app and every encrypted byte stays inside your network, with the exact same zero-knowledge guarantees.

Your data

Take your vault anywhere

Export your entire vault as JSON, CSV, or password-protected encrypted JSON — straight from Settings, gated behind your master password. An exit that's always open is the strongest reason to stay.
