We don't just say we're private.
We prove it.

Most "privacy-first" auth systems still store your email, link sessions to IPs, or use third-party SDKs that phone home. We don't. Here's the objective comparison.

How it works

12 words. One click.
Permanent identity.

First visit — Create

Click the button. 12 BIP-39 words are generated locally in your browser. Write them on paper. You're instantly logged in. No form, no email.

Return visit — Auto-login

Same browser within 30 days? One click and you're in. The session is encrypted in IndexedDB with a non-extractable AES-256 key. No interaction needed.

New device — 12 words

Enter your 12 words on any device. Same identity, everywhere. After 30 days without the words? Create a new account in one click — totally fine.

What the server stores

Only a SHA-256 hash of your public key — not the key itself. No IP, no email, no name. Even a full database breach reveals nothing useful.

Cross-platform identity

One YapID works on every site that supports it. YAP Chat, external platforms, your own project. Same accountId everywhere — anonymously.

Premium upgrades

Custom display name, profile link, badge, extended history. Pay once, works on all YAP platforms. Upgrade doesn't break anonymity.

Open Source + Protected

4 years of protection.

BSL 1.1 — Business Source License

The YapID source code is publicly available on GitHub. Anyone can read, audit, and verify our privacy claims. But competitors cannot copy and commercialize it for 4 years.

After 4 years, the license automatically converts to Apache 2.0 — fully open source. This is the same model used by HashiCorp (Terraform), CockroachDB, and MariaDB MaxScale.

What you can do: read the code, audit it, use it personally, contribute, build non-commercial projects on top of it.
What requires a license: running it as a commercial competing service.
