What it does

KrakenKey automates TLS certificate issuance using ACME DNS-01 challenges. Submit a CSR through the dashboard, CLI, or REST API, and your certificate is issued in about 4 minutes. Private keys are generated client-side and never touch our servers. Certificate monitoring, expiry notifications, and auto-renewal are built in. Free tier includes 3 domains and 10 certificates. Open source.

Automated TLS certificate management for developers and teams. Get a certificate in 4 minutes with zero manual DNS.

One-time DNS setup, then TLS certificates in 4 minutes — no ongoing records to manage, no cron jobs, no forgotten renewals. Privacy-first certificate issuance with automated DNS-01 challenges. Two DNS records once, then fully automated. Generate Certificate Signing Requests in your browser using WebCrypto API. Your private keys never leave your environment. Automated DNS-01 challenge resolution. Add two DNS records to your domain once — KrakenKey handles every ACME challenge from there. Issue and retrieve certificates programmatically. Every action in the dashboard is also available via REST API. Add domains, verify ownership via DNS TXT records, and scope certificate issuance per domain.…from krakenkey.io

    Anchor Relay – A faster, easier way to get Let's Encrypt certificates2025 · anchor.dev · ▲80

    From the cryptic terminal commands to the innumerable ways to shoot yourself in the foot, I always struggled to use TLS certificates. I love how much easier (and cheaper) Let's Encrypt made it to get certificates, but there are still plenty of things to struggle with. That's why we built Relay: a free, browser-based tool that streamlines the ACME workflow, especially for tricky setups like homelabs. Relay acts as a secure intermediary between your ACME client and public certificate authorities like Let's Encrypt. Some ways Relay provides a better experience: - really fast, streamlined…

  • Talanoa▲346

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
