KryptKrypt's answer:
Flat pricing. Every other hosted secrets manager charges per seat, so the bill grows every time you hire. Krypt is £10/month for the whole team no matter how many people join. It's the only hosted option that doesn't tax you for growing.
Krypt's answer:
If you're a team of 2 to 20, Doppler costs $12-21 per user per month and the alternatives that avoid per-seat pricing (Vault, Infisical) mean self-hosting and running the infrastructure yourself. Krypt is the middle option: fully hosted, nothing to run, one flat price. It's also deliberately smaller in scope, so setup takes minutes rather than days. If you need SSO or SOC 2 today, Doppler or Vault are the better choice and we'd say so.
Krypt's answer:
Small development teams, roughly 2 to 20 people, who currently share .env files over Slack or email. Startups, agencies and side projects that have outgrown a single .env file but don't need an enterprise secrets platform.
Krypt's answer:
I kept mixing up environment variables across my own projects, and when I looked at the existing tools they were either priced per seat, which gets expensive fast for a small team, or they meant running my own server. I wanted hosted and flat-priced and couldn't find it, so I built it. Launched July 2026.
Krypt's answer:
Node.js and Express on Railway for the API, React and Vite on Vercel for the dashboard, Supabase for the database, Clerk for authentication, Stripe for billing. The CLI is published on npm as @kryptorg/cli.

If you want to understand (Subtractive) synthesis. The best way is to get copy of VCV rack and follow a few tutorials. If you patch one subtractive mono synth voice once, you understand 80% of all subtractive synth architecture moving forward. https://vcvrack.com (open source and wonderful). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
I wonder whether someone already has build away to create modular synthesizer using block with knobs on the table. A line on the top of the knob would signal its position. (In the video I saw some shots that looked like sequencers.) You would also need some mechanism to connect the modules together. I played around with VCV Rack [1], but adjusting knobs with a mouse feels very different than using your hands to... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
I have a couple of these to add as well: VCVRack - simply one of the most mind-expanding things a synthesizer-nerd can play with. (https://vcvrack.com/) ZynthianOS - another example of a simple software solution to a problem nobody realized existed, opening the door to an absolutely astonishing array of Audio processing tools (https://zynthian.org/). - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
