Hi Product Hunt community! 👋 I'm the maker behind COVERT. I built this tool out of a personal need: wanting to pass sensitive logs, quick updates, or confidential text strings over standard daily chat apps (like WhatsApp) without drawing visual attention from nearby eyes, screen locks, or notifications. Instead of creating a heavy, separate encrypted chat app that forces both users to register, COVERT works right on top of your existing workflows using zero-width steganography. Why you might like it: • Zero Friction: No sign-ups, no accounts, 100% free. • True Data Sovereignty: It's local-first. All cryptographic operations (AES-256) happen straight in your browser's memory. Zero servers, zero databases, zero tracking. • Completely Invisible: To the world, you're just sending a routine text like "I'm on my way" or a quick work update. The secret block is seamlessly embedded invisibly. I’d love to get your honest feedback on the UX, the concept, and how you see yourself using it for your day-to-day privacy. Thanks for hunting us today! 🚀
