Launch in preparation

Coming soon.

The public KimiVault page is staying quiet while the app, licensing, and release flow are finished. More detail returns as soon as the local page is ready.

Privacy first

The vault is encrypted locally.

KimiVault is built for data that should not casually end up in a backend: credentials, tokens, customer notes, internal project details, and private thoughts. If you want to connect multiple Macs, KimiVault only syncs app-encrypted records through your private iCloud database.*

* iCloud Sync is a Pro feature.

Local storage directly on your Mac.

KimiVault stores your vault encrypted on your Mac. Basic and Pro licenses unlock higher limits and Pro features; they do not turn your local vault into a cloud account.

The raw master password is not stored for convenience unlock. Touch ID uses a device-local unlock path. The active key only lives while the vault is unlocked. Auto-lock protects the vault after inactivity.

What it stores

For secrets you need to protect.

Record type

Projects

Project access, notes, and custom fields stay together, so critical details do not fragment across files.

Security details

Safe enough for secrets, fast enough for daily use.

Local encrypted storageVault data stays in your macOS app environment and is stored encrypted.
Touch ID without storing the master passwordBiometric unlock uses a device-bound local credential path.
Encrypted backupsBackups are encrypted packages with restore and merge protections.
Recently DeletedPro keeps deleted items recoverable before you permanently remove them.
Fair free modeUp to 5 active items free. Existing data stays readable, copyable, deletable, and exportable.
Release-ready foundationPrepared for signed, notarized macOS releases and Sparkle updates.

Pro Sync

iCloud, without trusting it blindly.

With Pro, KimiVault can sync encrypted records through your private iCloud database. The app encrypts before upload. Without Pro, the vault stays local. Apple still processes iCloud account, device, and service metadata.

Optional: sync is not required for local use. Private database: no public iCloud sharing. App-encrypted records: iCloud does not receive plaintext secrets. The vault must be unlocked before sync can work deliberately.

Basic vs Pro

Choose pure local use or local vault with sync.

Basic lifts the local vault beyond the free limit. Pro includes everything in Basic and adds optional app-encrypted iCloud Sync for multiple Macs.

Basic

Unlimited local vault.

For users who use KimiVault on one Mac or move data manually with encrypted backups and do not need automatic iCloud Sync.
