SecretPaste for students

For the project. Not forever.

A project partner may need access to a key or a private file, but the whole group chat does not need to keep it. Send the useful part through a link with an ending.

Encryption

Project credentials

Pass an environment file, token, or recovery detail to the right person. Browser encryption keeps the plaintext and key away from our servers.

In your browser

Recipient

Private academic handoffs

Share a file with a teammate, supervisor, or recipient through an explicit reveal. Follow any institutional rules for the material you send.

An explicit reveal

After delivery

Simple to get started

Use the homepage for a standard handoff without a recipient account. The composer shows current limits; pricing explains additional sender controls.

The link expires

A straightforward handoff

From your browser to theirs.

  1. 01

    Choose text or a file

    Paste a project secret or add the file you need to send. Check that the intended recipient should have access.

  2. 02

    Choose an ending

    Set expiry and views before you create the link. Your browser encrypts the payload.

  3. 03

    Send it to your partner

    Share the full link in a private message. They choose when to reveal it; a normal chat preview does not burn a view.

“The recipient gets the secret. Our servers never get the plaintext or the decryption key.”

Before you share

A few useful answers.

Can I start without a paid plan?

Yes. Standard browser sharing is available without a paid subscription. The homepage displays the current upload allowance and available settings.

Is there education pricing?

Contact our team through the pricing page to ask about current education options. Standard free sharing remains available in the meantime.

Is this a backup for my research files?

No. Links are temporary and can become unavailable after a reveal or expiry. Keep your own files in your institution’s approved storage.

More ways to make it private.

Text secrets

Encrypted in your browser, gone after one view. Send a password, a token, or an environment file without leaving its contents in a message thread.

File transfer

Streamed to storage, never through our API. Share a file or a folder with browser encryption and a lifetime you control.

Burn after reading

One atomic claim per view, then the ciphertext is gone. Give sensitive text or a file a clear end to its availability.
