Krypt is a secrets management platform that lets development teams store, share, and deploy environment variables with end-to-end encryption. It replaces the fragile practice of passing .env files through Slack, email, or git — giving every team member access to the right secrets for the right environment.

​
The problem

Most teams manage secrets by copy-pasting .env files between developers. This creates real risks:
  • Secrets sprawl — copies of production credentials live in Slack DMs, emails, local machines, and cloud drives with no central inventory
  • No audit trail — when a secret leaks, there’s no way to know who had access or when it was last changed
  • Accidental commits — .env files get pushed to git, exposing credentials in version history permanently
  • Onboarding friction — new team members wait hours or days for someone to send them the right env vars
  • Environment drift — local, staging, and production configs diverge silently until something breaks

​
The solution

Krypt provides three things:
  1. Encrypted central store — secrets are encrypted with AES-256 before they leave your machine, stored centrally, and decrypted only when pulled or injected
  2. CLI for daily workflow — krypt push, krypt pull, and krypt run fit into your existing terminal workflow without changing how you develop
  3. Dashboard for team management — invite members, assign roles, review change requests for production, and see an audit log of every action

​
Key features

  • End-to-end AES-256 encryption for all secrets
  • Three environments per project: development, staging, production
  • Role-based access control (Owner, Admin, Member, Viewer)
  • Change requests for production safety — members propose, admins approve
  • Audit log of all push, pull, share, and edit actions
  • CLI-first workflow with @kryptorg/cli
  • Web dashboard for team management and visibility

​
How it compares

Krypt is similar in concept to Doppler and Infisical — a centralized secrets manager with a CLI. The difference is scope: Krypt is built to be simpler and more affordable for small teams and solo developers. No Kubernetes operators, no infrastructure agents, no enterprise sales calls. Install the CLI, push your .env, invite your team.
