Honestly those are 100% fair questions, for (1), I have a security page: https://eternalvault.app/security/ but mainly because of marketing purposes, most people I have as customers are in their 30-40s and not fairly technical, so when they ask me, I have to be mindful to not bombard them with too much technical info, but it's a good idea to still have a whitepaper with more detailed info for someone who actually wants to confirm on the privacy aspects.

Regarding (2), that is the most common question I get and honestly I don't know if I have the best answer for it, but here's what I have, I have two vaults for myself (of course I use Eternal Vault myself), one for family and one for business, in the business vault I have few documents including one called "Business continuity plan" which lays down all of my raw thoughts around how eternal vault is built, core technical things, infrastructure, dooms day trigger etc, and other business specific documents, right now since I don't have any heir, I have added few close people to it who are also fairly technical to keep it running, but eventually my idea is to expand on it in such a way that if I'm removed from the equation, the product can still sustain itself both business and ops wise, but I can totally understand why someone would trust a stranger on the internet, so I'm actually not sure how can I make the answer for 2nd much better, what do you recommend?

Indeed, that's precisely why I decided to ditch out of the subscription model and went into one time payment method, did the math and it made sense that I don't need a very heavy system apart from supporting the dead man switch trigger

Wrote my thoughts about that here: https://eternalvault.app/blog/why-we-are-adding-lifetime-pri...

And it feels good to know that there are people out thinking about this, makes me happy truly and if you want to try out the platform, welcome aboard, happy to walk through it if needed. :)

It's an incredible technique, when I came across it, it just changed the way I thought of solving giving out keys without "truly" giving them out. This gave me confidence for eternalvault.app, a project of mine.

I'm building (or rather rebuilding/pivoting my focus) CatchIntent (https://CatchIntent.com). The intent layer for B2B outbound.

The marketing site is stale with our previous offering, the demo of upcoming product is here: https://vimeo.com/1190884516

I'm building CatchIntent (https://CatchIntent.com). The goal is to help turning social conversations into qualified warm leads.

Started with it because I was struggling with finding relevant conversations about my first app where people are exactly asking for what I'm selling, only that I was missing those conversations and people. Build a POC, tested for myself and started getting good leads, so I converted it into my second app.

I do yes, I have a dedicated page for the same: https://eternalvault.app/security/

But here's a TL;DR

- Files are end to end encrypted with a master key generated by you on your device during onboarding

- How do your family access the documents when only you have the key and it's E2EE? The idea is the key is splitted via Shamir Secret Sharing when you add a trusted contact, once the doomsday is triggered and they recieve the notification, only then they can use their "shares" to reconstruct the master key and open your vault and access the documents

When someone dies, you don't get even one extra second to access the documents and information they meant to share it with you. Trying to fix this problem with Eternal Vault.

Another thing thats in early alpha right now is CapKit, AI professional captions for short form videos

I'm trying to fix this problem with Eternal Vault (https://eternalvault.app)

Today, I am launching lifetime pricing at $199/$399.

From a business perspective, everyone I talked to said it's a stupid and impulsive idea, but here's the reason why I feel it's not.

Firstly, I did the math. Ran a 50-year cost analysis. Analyzed cloud storage, infrastructure, payment fees, support, inflation.

At $199/$399, we stay profitable for decades.

The major reason why I have been thinking like this is because your will doesn't expire. Estate planning isn't Netflix. It's permanent.

And for our users, it will be less than $1/month over their lifetime for peace of mind.

My bet is that subscription fatigue is real. There's room for products that ask "does this make sense" over "does this maximize LTV."

It is bootstrapped. No VC pressure. And monthly option is still available for those who prefer that.

Am I being naive or smart? Want honest feedback.

PS: I also just did few changes on the content to call this out better, thanks for sharing the feedback around it.

So we do provide a free forever plan, with free plan there are usage limits plus some advance features are not there, but all the core security features are fully available on all plans (I strongly feel security is not a good to have but a must have feature)

With that being said, with the paid plans unlock higher limits, advance features (all mentioned on the pricing page).

Let me know if you have any specific questions, also feel free to DM me on my socials or via emails (all available on the contact page).

Thanks, do give it a try, I would love to get feedback about it :)

Thanks for the suggestions!

Wow, it's fun reading the innovative ways people are solving for this, thanks for sharing your approach. If you don't mind me asking, can you share some more details about this CLI utility? Does it use some existing solutions like GPG or something similar for the tasks you mentioned?

Just thinking out loud, doesn't keeping it offline increases the risk of first of all things getting lost or worse gets accessed by someone you don't intend to pass it on to?

That's fair, and it's actually pretty nice that you have thought out about this in such details. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with me, appreciate it :)

I don't know how easy is it from where you are from, but a friend of mine lost his dad during covid second wave, and it took him months to get just get access to his dad's bank accounts.

Seems very scary, there might be so many things that he doesn't even know about. I tried searching for this, and it seems like there are billions of dollars left in dormant accounts because no one claimed it, majorly because the person's family don't even know how to access those or worse are not even aware about it.

Wow, that's quite well-thought-out plan. So you mentioned that this encrypted data and its credentials are kept at a physical location and designated one person to be the executor? Is this person someone you know or some firm which handles things like these?

And I don't want to sound rude, but what if the executor passes away before you and you are not aware about it, what's the backup plan?

Ah yes, my bad, I should also have mentioned the website link in the project README file as well, just added a "View the website" link in the readme, hope that helps others as well. Thanks for sharing about this.

There is a reverse toggle as well :)

Totally agree with you on this, it was meant to be satirical but I started to realize that there are many places and people to which these type of conversation is really the only medium to communicate, its sad and in an ideal world I would want that people communicate directly without the need of twisting the words, but I am happy that you advocate and appreciate direction communication over something like this.

Thanks for resharing about this again, if anyone has any feedback then please feel free to share about it.

There must be times when you feel like you're not good enough, or you're not making any progress. I've been there too. However, there are some moments that make me feel glad that I became a programmer.

The idea behind this page is to write about those such moments and start looking at the brighter side of things.

I have Podman running in one server and Docker in another, Podman was for testing something out so I created a role for that as well.

The repo is private on GitHub as of now, I would have to re-check everything once if I accidentally did not leak any secrets at some point of time when I was still learning about Ansible. So it will be sometime before I make it a public repo.

Meanwhile, if you are looking for something specific then let me know, I will try to cover that topic in depth in some blog post.

I have plans of looking into OIDC setup soon-ish, right now I don't have any specific need for it but just for learning purposes I'll be setting it up soon.

Also I'm planning to write about Ansible as well in future.

Hey, thanks for bringing this up, I believe this was a miss from my end to not mention that the article was more geared towards Infrastructure configurations via code and not Infrastructure setup via code.

I have updated the title of the article, the URL remains the same for now, might update the URL and create a redirect later.

Nice work, I am currently sending out the relevant links on my discord server on period basis, the idea of using GPT API to extract out information is much better than me manually trying to parse the data (many false positives right now). Will try and do it this way as well, thanks for the tip!
