Yopass is a self-hostable web application for securely sharing secrets, passwords, and files via one-time, auto-expiring links. Secrets are encrypted in the browser with OpenPGP before upload, so the server only ever stores ciphertext and the decryption key never leaves the sender's machine.

Use cases

  • share a password with a colleague without it living in Slack
  • send an API key or database credential via a one-time link
  • securely receive credentials from vendors or clients
  • share sensitive files that self-destruct after viewing
  • avoid plaintext secrets in email and ticket systems
  • self-host an alternative to OneTimeSecret

When to choose

  • you need end-to-end encrypted, one-time secret links you fully control
  • you want a lightweight Go server deployable via Docker or Kubernetes with Memcached/Redis/S3 backends
  • you need compliance features like audit logging, OIDC sign-in, read receipts, and webhooks (with a business license)

When to avoid

  • you need full team password management with a vault, not ephemeral link sharing
  • you require all governance features (OIDC, audit logs, webhooks, theming) without paying for a license
  • you want a managed service with zero infrastructure to run
