Looking for a 1Password Alternative?

Why Choose AliasVault over 1Password
Built-in aliases and an encrypted email inbox
While 1Password focuses mostly on passwords, AliasVault includes built-in email aliases without requiring any third-party integrations. AliasVault is designed for individuals, making it simple to use, yet very powerful for privacy protection.
Cloud or self-hosted: your choice
1Password only offers their own cloud-hosted version. AliasVault gives you the choice: use the cloud-hosted version for convenience, or (for people with technical experience) fully self-host AliasVault so you stay in control of where your data lives.
Built for individuals, not enterprises
1Password is an excellent choice for businesses and teams. AliasVault however is designed primarily for individuals and families who want a simple and focused experience that protects both your data and privacy: passwords, passkeys, aliases, and identities in one place.
