VaultLite
Zero-knowledge secret manager for small dev teams
Stop sharingenv files insecurely. Secrets management built for startups and small engineering teams. Manage environment variables, API keys, and app credentials with simple client-side encryption. Get secure sync without the enterprise DevOps complexity.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Kshitij, the maker of VaultLite.
I’ve been working with modern headless architectures and fast-paced dev teams, and I kept running into the exact same frustrating problem: managing environment variables in small teams is a mess.
We either resort to terrible security habits (DMing unencrypted .env files in Slack, pasting them in Notion) or we try to use enterprise giants like HashiCorp Vault, which are incredibly bloated for a 5-person team.
I'm building VaultLite to bridge that gap. It’s a lightweight CLI tool that syncs your .env files instantly. Most importantly, I don't want to hold your plaintext secrets. VaultLite uses the browser's native Web Crypto API to encrypt everything (AES-GCM) on the client side before it hits the database.
We are currently taking signups for our private beta (and offering a lifetime founder's deal to early supporters). Subscribe to get notified when we drop the CLI! Would love to hear what your current workflow looks like in the comments.
