In plain words

Master Password is a stateless password management app designed for users prioritizing privacy. Rather than storing passwords in a vault, it generates passwords on-demand based on a master password and the site name, eliminating the need to sync or backup password data. The app is ideal for people seeking a minimal approach to password security without relying on centralized storage. Available across multiple platforms, it appeals to privacy-conscious users and technology enthusiasts.

Want to stay up-to-date on privacy-first password security? Sign me up! We believe saving passwords in an app, or uploading them all to the cloud, is a recipe for personal disaster. Why?

Spectre is a password cipher: Instead of saving and sending passwords across the internet, Spectre calculates the password you need, only when you need it, then throws it away again.
