A second password that opens a fake vault.
Someone making you unlock it? Type the other password. They get a boring decoy. Your real stuff stays hidden.
One locked file on your phone. No account. No cloud. No monthly bill. Pay once and forget we exist.
Go on, press it. The timer is real.
The safest server is the one that doesn't exist. Pawsword has no account to hack, no cloud to leak, and no bill to forget.
Your passwords live in one locked file on your phone. Want them on your Mac too? Drop the file in your own iCloud Drive. Nothing ever calls home, because there is no home to call.
Someone making you unlock it? Type the other password. They get a boring decoy. Your real stuff stays hidden.
Copy a password and 20 seconds later it is gone from the clipboard. The next app gets nothing.
Screenshot the vault and you get a black square. Same for screen recordings. Hover to see what a thief sees.
Bring everything from Apple Passwords, Chrome, 1Password, Bitwarden or any KeePass file.
One page with your recovery key and a blank for your master password. Put it in a drawer. Forgetting becomes a bad afternoon, not a disaster.
We didn't invent the problem. We just stopped pretending a company in the middle is free.
Hackers took vaults and customer data in 2022. The lawsuit settled in 2025. In February 2026, researchers found 27 new holes in four big cloud managers.
After the macOS 26.0.1 update, the sync switch turns itself off for many people. "All my passwords vanished" threads sit unanswered for months.
1Password raised prices by up to a third in March 2026. Dashlane killed its free plan. Enpass quietly dropped its lifetime deal. A password manager should not be a bill.
Lifetime, defined
So here is exactly what $29 gets you. In writing, in plain words.

Founder price
$39 at launch. The first 500 get this price.
Card or Apple Pay through Lemon Squeezy. We use your email for the receipt and your licence code. That is it. Mac and iPhone launch spring 2027. Android and Windows come after.
Checkout opens soon. Leave your email and you get the founder price the day it does.
Not yet, and we won't pretend otherwise. The encryption code will be open source at launch so anyone can read it. A paid outside audit is the first thing founder money pays for.
Your vault is one locked file. Put it in your own iCloud Drive or Dropbox and every Pawsword opens the same file. Or don't sync at all. The app never talks to a server of ours because there isn't one.
Nobody can reset it, including us. That is the whole point. So Pawsword prints a paper backup at setup with your recovery key and a blank for your password. Keep it somewhere real, like a drawer.
You get a receipt and a licence code by email. At launch you type the code once and you're in on every Apple device you own. Until then, one honest progress note a month. No marketing, we promise.
Pawsword. You read it as password, didn't you? That was on purpose. Same job, but a bear runs this one and he never phones home.
Pawsword is made by The Brandle, a small design studio in Dubai run by Muteeb Mehraj. He got tired of iCloud Keychain forgetting his passwords, so he built the thing he wanted. Email him at hello@pawsword.app. He answers.
