We are developers and security researchers making tools for developers to encrypt data at an application level while maintaining sole control of their keys.

We believe that data should always be encrypted unless it is part of an active computation. Encryption is relatively easy, but key management is challenging. There are plenty of encryption tools and SDKs that are out there (Hashicorp Vault, AWS KMS etc.) but we are focusing on ease and speed of implementation, developer experience and self custody of keys.

A few months ago, we quit our jobs and started full time on Phase.

So far, we have created a dashboard to create, manage and deploy keys, a key management service (KMS) to serve encrypted shards of a private key to an app during each decrypt operation as well as SDKs for JS, Node and Python.

Give it a try (https://github.com/phasehq/console)! We’d love to hear what you think!
