Send a secure message

    Encrypt the message in your browser and send a link that can be read once.

    0/10,000 characters

    Passphrase protection is available on Pro ($29/mo). See plans

    Burn after read is always on for anonymous secrets. The link self-destructs after one view.
    Burn after read
    Encrypted in your browser
    Never expires (until read)

    No account needed. Free forever plan.

    How it works

    1. 01

      Paste a password, a key, or a file

      Encrypted in your browser before anything is sent. Burn after read is on for every anonymous secret.

    2. 02

      Send the link

      One URL. The key after the # stays in the browser and never reaches our servers.

    3. 03

      The stored secret is gone

      The first open burns the ciphertext. A second visit, by anyone, meets the destroyed page.

    Browser-side encryption shipped on 29 September 2026. Secrets created before that date were stored as plaintext until they expired, and a file's name, size and type are still visible to us. Read the full security model.

    What makes the message secure

    Three properties. The text is encrypted on your device with AES-GCM-256 before anything is sent. The key travels in the link after the #, which browsers never send to a server, so LinkPilot cannot read the message. And the message can be revealed once; the first reveal overwrites the stored ciphertext. A message that is unreadable in storage and gone after one read is as secure as a message can be while still being deliverable over ordinary email or chat.

    Sending a secure message to anyone

    Write it above, press the button, and send the link by whatever channel you already use. The recipient opens it in any browser; there is no app and no account on their side. If you need to send a secure text to a phone, paste the link into an SMS. The SMS carries nothing sensitive, only a link that will be useless after one reveal.

    Expiry, revocation and a second factor

    An unread anonymous message expires after seven days. A free account lets you set one hour, 24 hours or seven days and revoke the message from the dashboard. Pro adds a passphrase that you share by a second route, a custom expiry date and time, and an audit timeline that records each view and burn. The encrypted link page explains the cryptography in more detail.

    Pro, $29 a month, adds a passphrase on every secret, a custom expiry date and time, and the audit timeline that records each view, burn and revoke. See plans.
