Share a Secret

Paste a password, API key, or private note. Get a one-time link.

Built to forget.

Every design decision serves one purpose: make sure secrets are readable exactly once, then gone.

1
Encrypted in your browser

AES-256-GCM encryption happens locally. The key never leaves your device.

2
Stored as ciphertext only

The server receives encrypted data it can never read. The decryption key lives in the link's # fragment.

3
Read once, gone forever

Opening the link decrypts the message locally and permanently deletes it from the server in one atomic operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does zero-knowledge encryption work?

Your message is encrypted in your browser using AES-256-GCM before it reaches our server. The decryption key lives in the URL fragment (#) which browsers never send to servers. We literally cannot read your secrets.

Can the server read my secrets?

No. The server only stores encrypted ciphertext. The decryption key is embedded in the link fragment and never transmitted to the server. Even if our database were compromised, your secrets remain private.

What happens if the link is never opened?

Unread messages automatically expire based on your selected TTL (1 hour, 24 hours, or 7 days) and are permanently deleted from our servers.

Can I set a passphrase for extra security?

Yes! You can add an optional passphrase that the recipient must enter before decryption. The passphrase derives the encryption key via PBKDF2 with 600,000 iterations, adding a strong second layer of protection.

Is this free to use?

BytesBit Secure Share offers a generous free tier with no sign-up required. Core features including encryption, passphrase protection, and file attachments are available at no cost.
