Vakaso Secure Paste - Secret & API Key Guard

Stop secrets before you paste. Catch API keys and tokens in ChatGPT, Claude, and more—100% locally.

Stop secrets before you paste. Detection runs 100% on your device. A quick question to an AI assistant or a debugging snippet pasted into a prompt—one unnoticed API key or database password can turn into a costly security incident. Vakaso Secure Paste puts an automated checkpoint between your clipboard and AI chat interfaces, inspecting clipboard text locally right before the page receives it. The only network request is an optional Pro license check. Nothing you paste is ever sent anywhere. KEY FEATURES • 100% In-Browser RAM Scanning: Detection runs strictly on-device in memory using pattern matching and Shannon entropy. • Zero Telemetry: No analytics, no tracking cookies, and no scanning servers. Your pasted text is never stored, never logged to disk, and never transmitted. • 1-Click Redaction: Automatically replaces detected API keys, credentials, and tokens with safe placeholders ([REDACTED_SECRET]) before insertion. • Scoped Protection: Actively guards inputs across major web-based AI chat and developer environments.
