Decentralized Credential Manager

Your Keys. Your Vault.
No Central Server.

NodeZero replaces LastPass with hardware-backed encryption, DID-based identity, encrypted email for Gmail, a multi-chain HD wallet, and a zero-knowledge architecture. No master password. No breach target. No usage tracking — not even by us.

Features

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Core security is never paywalled. Hardware keys, local encryption, and MFA are free for everyone.

Hardware-Backed Encryption

Your vault key is derived from a hardware security key or biometric. No master password to crack, ever.

DID-Based Identity

Your cryptographic identity is self-sovereign, portable, and free from any central authority.

Field-Level Encryption

Every field is encrypted individually with unique random keys. No single-blob vault.

Google Drive Sync

Your encrypted vault syncs across devices via your own Google Drive. Merge-before-upload conflict resolution prevents data loss. No central server — you own the storage.

One-Click Import

Migrate from LastPass, 1Password, Bitwarden, or Chrome in seconds with drag-and-drop CSV import. Duplicate detection built in.

Encrypted Email for Gmail

End-to-end encrypted email inside Gmail. Right-click to encrypt for any recipient. Auto-decrypt on read. No PGP, no key servers.

Biometric & Passkey Unlock

Unlock with Windows Hello, Touch ID, or a hardware security key. No master password. Your face, fingerprint, or YubiKey is the key.

Multi-Chain HD Wallet & Swap

Built-in EVM and Bitcoin wallet derived from your recovery phrase. Send, receive, and swap tokens on Base via Uniswap v4 — all without leaving the extension.

Delegation & Secure Sharing

Share credentials with trusted contacts via time-limited, revocable Delegation VCs. X25519 key wrapping ensures only the delegate can decrypt.

Security Audit Report

Automatic detection of weak, reused, and aging passwords. Composite security score from 0 to 100 with actionable insights.

Side Panel & Dashboard

Open NodeZero as a Chrome side panel for a persistent view. A dashboard landing page shows your security score, vault stats, and wallet balances at a glance.

Lightweight & Fast

A browser extension under 3 MB. No desktop app needed. No account required. Install and go.

Step 2

Right-click. Done.

No intrusive popups. No auto-fill surprises. Right-click any login form to fill credentials, generate a strong password, or save a new login. You're always in control.

  • Context-menu autofill — no DOM injection
  • One-click strong password generation
  • Password strength meter built in
Step 3

Switch in seconds

Export your passwords from Chrome, LastPass, 1Password, or Bitwarden as CSV. Drag and drop into NodeZero. Every entry is encrypted individually with unique random keys.

  • Import from 4 major password managers
  • Each entry encrypted with a unique key
  • CSV is never uploaded — parsed locally in your browser

Encrypted email inside Gmail

Right-click in any Gmail compose window to encrypt your message for all recipients. NodeZero uses X25519 ECDH with ephemeral keys for forward secrecy. The server never sees email addresses or content — only opaque SHA-256 hashes mapped to public keys.

  • Multi-recipient encryption (To + CC + BCC)
  • Auto-decrypt with optional Gmail permission
  • No PGP, no key servers — uses your existing DID identity

Opt-in by design: Each user must explicitly link their email via right-click → NodeZero → Link this email to my identity before others can encrypt messages to them. No automatic enrollment — your anonymity is preserved until you choose to participate.

Security

Built different from the ground up

Traditional password managers store your vault on their servers and protect it with a master password — a single point of failure. NodeZero eliminates both.

Your vault is encrypted locally before it ever leaves your browser. Each field gets its own AES-256-GCM encryption with a unique random nonce — not a single blob. Your DID key never touches a server. There's no central database to breach, no master password to crack, and no recovery backdoor for attackers to exploit.

NodeZero also adds end-to-end encrypted email inside Gmail — the server never sees your addresses or content, only opaque hashes and ciphertext. Vault sync goes through your own Google Drive — no central server stores your data, and we have no way to track your usage.

Your recovery phrase doubles as a multi-chain HD wallet — Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, BSC, and Bitcoin (SegWit + Taproot). A built-in security audit scores your vault for weak, reused, and aging passwords. Share credentials safely via time-limited Delegation VCs that the recipient can't forward.

Privacy Architecture

Zero-knowledge sync, zero central servers

Your vault syncs via your own Google Drive. NodeZero encrypts everything locally before upload — Google stores only ciphertext it cannot read.

01

Encrypt Locally

Every vault entry is encrypted individually with unique random keys derived from your hardware-backed secret. The encryption happens entirely in your browser before any data leaves your device.

Client-Side Only
02

Your Google Drive

The encrypted vault file is stored in your own Google Drive — not on our servers. You control the storage. You can revoke access anytime from your Google account settings.

You Own the Storage
03

Smart Merge

When syncing across devices, NodeZero performs merge-before-upload with per-entry conflict resolution. Ed25519 signatures detect tampering before decryption. No data loss. No silent overwrites.

Tamper-Proof

No central server. No usage tracking. NodeZero never sees your vault data. Google Drive stores only encrypted blobs it cannot read. The extension is 100% open source — audit every line yourself.

How It Works

Three steps to total control

No accounts. No emails. No phone numbers. Just install, secure, and browse.

01

Install & Setup

Install the Chrome extension. Register your passkey or set a vault PIN. Takes under a minute.

02

Secure Your Vault

A recovery phrase is generated for you. Verify three words. Your vault is sealed with hardware-grade encryption.

03

Browse with Control

Right-click to fill, generate, or save credentials. No auto-fill surprises. You're always in control.
