An open-source vault for passwords, files, notes, and shared secrets.

Padloc is an end-to-end encrypted password manager that also stores credit cards, notes, documents, license keys, and other sensitive records. It supports personal use as well as shared vaults for families, teams, and businesses, with apps across desktop, mobile, and browser environments.

Why it stands out

  • Open-source codebase, allowing public review rather than relying only on vendor claims.
  • Independent security audits are highlighted, including a recent review by Radically Open Security.
  • Goes beyond passwords by handling notes, documents, credit cards, and other structured secret types.
  • Covers both consumer and organizational sharing, from family vaults to business groups and provisioning.
  • Broad platform coverage includes desktop, mobile, and major browser options.

Good to know

  • Encrypted file storage limits depend on plan, ranging from 1GB on Premium/Family to higher business tiers.
  • Directory sync and automatic provisioning are limited to Team, Business, and Enterprise plans.
  • Enterprise pricing is not listed publicly and requires contacting sales.
  • Collaboration limits such as shared vault and group counts vary by plan.
