What is Secret Key
Secret Key is an open-source, self-hosted tool that provides emergency access for your password database. It lets you split a master password into shares distributed among trusted people, so that a defined threshold of shares (e.g. any 3 of 5) can unlock it if you are unavailable. Recovery requires SMS verification and includes a 48-hour delay that can be canceled with one click.
Key Features
Use Cases
- Allow family members to unlock your passwords if you cannot
- Set up a dead-man's-switch style emergency recovery plan
- Self-host a privacy-focused alternative for password handover
Why do startups need this tool?
Secret Key suits teams and founders who want a self-hosted, privacy-first way to plan password recovery and continuity. Its threshold-based sharing and cancellable 48-hour delay give businesses control over emergency access without handing full credentials to any single person.
