VaultAlias

What it does

VaultAlias lets you create instant email aliases to protect your real address. Sign up for a service? Use a unique alias. If it gets leaked or spammed, disable it. VaultAlias also strips tracking pixels so marketers can't spy on you. Features: unlimited aliases (Free), multiple destinations, reply from aliases, custom subdomains (Pro), real-time stats on emails received and trackers blocked. A privacy-first alternative to SimpleLogin, built by a solo developer.

Create instant email aliases. Protect your real address. Block tracking.

Not just an alias generator. A shield. Block trackers, kill spam in one click, and own your inbox — without depending on Google or Microsoft. Every alias you create lives on our infrastructure — not Gmail's, not Microsoft's. No one can shut it down, read it, or sell it. Your email identity stays yours. Companies hide invisible pixels in emails to know when you read them, where you are, and what device you use. VaultAlias strips them out before the email reaches you. They send. You read. They learn nothing. Gave your alias to a site that sold it? Disable it instantly. No unsubscribe links to hunt. No forms to fill. One click — and the spam stops forever. Your real address staysfrom vaultalias.com

  After 10 years my side project has hit $8k/mo in revenue2020 · ▲442

  Back in 2010 I had an idea for a service that would allow people to easily create semi-permanent email aliases so that they could give an email address to people and websites without revealing their real email address. These aliases will continue to work indefinitely unless you choose to block them. My brother and I spent a few months building the initial version and launched the website in July 2010. For the first year we had about 50 signups per month, by 2013 this had increased to 1500 and it's currently around 3500 per month. Similarly, our revenue grew consistently but slowly - doubling…

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
