Security

Zero-knowledge.
Zero-cloud.

Your keys never leave your device. We never see them — not even encrypted.

🔐
AES-256-GCM Encryption
Every key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM, the same standard used by governments and financial institutions.
🧂
PBKDF2 Key Derivation
Your master password goes through 100,000 iterations of PBKDF2 before becoming an encryption key. Brute-force resistant.
💻
Zero-Knowledge Cloud Sync
Cloud sync sends only AES-256-GCM encrypted blobs — the server never sees your keys or master password. Offline-first by default.
🚫
No Telemetry, No Tracking
We collect zero data about you or your keys. No analytics, no usage tracking, no crash reports sent anywhere.

FAQ

Common Questions

How do I securely store API keys in Chrome?

The safest way to store API keys in Chrome is with a dedicated encrypted extension like API Locker. It encrypts every key with AES-256-GCM using a master password that never leaves your device. Avoid storing API keys in plain text files, browser notes, or unencrypted password managers that treat keys as plain passwords.

What happens if I forget my master password?

API Locker is zero-knowledge — your master password is never sent anywhere and there is no recovery mechanism by design. If you forget your master password, your encrypted vault cannot be decrypted. This is a feature, not a bug: it means no third party, including us, can ever access your keys. Write your master password down and store it somewhere safe.

Are my API keys sent to the cloud?

Only if you enable cloud sync (Pro feature). Even then, only AES-256-GCM encrypted blobs are sent — the server never sees your plaintext keys or master password. The free plan stores everything locally on your device only.

How is API Locker different from a regular password manager?

Password managers are built for website logins. API Locker is purpose-built for developers: it detects which API dashboard you're visiting and surfaces the right key automatically, supports 32+ providers with their logos, handles multiple keys per provider with labels like "Production" and "Development", and warns you before keys expire.

What is smart site detection?

When you visit a supported API dashboard (like platform.openai.com or dashboard.stripe.com), API Locker automatically shows only the relevant keys for that provider. No searching, no scrolling — the right key appears the moment you need it.

Can I use API Locker across multiple devices?

Yes, with the Pro plan. Cloud sync keeps your encrypted vault in sync across all your Chrome installations. Your keys are encrypted with your master password before leaving your device, so syncing is completely safe.

Which API providers does API Locker support?

API Locker supports 32+ providers out of the box including OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, GitHub, AWS, Google Cloud, Twilio, SendGrid, Hugging Face, Replicate, and many more. You can also add any custom provider manually.
