Rowel is an open-source, local-first secrets manager for securely storing passwords, passkeys, payment cards, identities, SSH keys, and API credentials. It protects sensitive information in encrypted vaults stored directly on users' devices. Separate lockboxes organize personal, professional, and client credentials with independent encryption. Developers can manage environment files, scoped API keys, and SSH identities without relying on plain-text notes. Optional synchronization uses personal Google Drive, Dropbox, or iCloud storage while keeping uploaded data encrypted. Biometric authentication provides convenient access on supported devices. Rowel also supports importing credentials from popular password managers and browsers. Available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and iOS beta, it operates offline without requiring an account.
