How Obliviate Works
🧙🏻♂️ A magical one-time secret sharing service that ensures your sensitive information disappears without a trace after being viewed once.
Security & Privacy First
Your secrets are protected with enterprise-grade security from the moment you create them.
Server-Side Encryption
Your secrets are encrypted on Obliviate's secure servers using AES-256-GCM encryption immediately upon receipt, before being stored in the database.
Automatic Destruction
Secrets are permanently deleted after viewing or expiry. No backups, no recovery - true ephemeral messaging.
Optional Passphrase
Add an extra layer of protection with a passphrase that must be entered to decrypt the secret.
Time-Based Expiry
Even if never viewed, secrets automatically expire and are deleted based on your chosen time-frame.
The Magic Process
Follow these simple steps to create and share your secure, self-destructing secrets.
Enter Your Secret
Type your sensitive message
Go to the homepage and type your secret message in the text box. This could be a password, private note, or any sensitive information you want to share securely. Your message stays on your device until you're ready to share it.
Set a Passphrase (Optional)
Add an extra security layer
For extra protection, you can create a password that the person receiving your message will need to enter. This is optional but recommended for very sensitive information. You can use the eye icon to show or hide your password as you type.
Choose Expiration Time
Set when your secret expires
Pick how long your secret link should work before it automatically disappears forever. You can choose from a few minutes to several days. Once this time passes, the secret will be permanently deleted even if no one has read it yet.
Cast the Link
Create your secure link
Click the 'Cast a Link' button to turn your message into a secret link. The app will scramble your message using powerful encryption so that only someone with the special link can read it. Your original message is never saved anywhere.
Get Your Shareable Link
Copy your unique URL
After creating your secret, you'll see a special web address (URL) that leads to your message. This link is completely unique and impossible to guess. You can easily copy it by clicking the copy button.
Share the Link
Send to your recipient
Send the link to whoever needs to see your secret. You can share it through email, text message, or any other way you prefer. Remember, whoever has this link can read your message, so only send it to people you trust.
Recipient Views the Secret
One-time access only
When someone clicks your link, they'll see a page asking for the password (if you set one). Once they enter it correctly, your secret message will appear on their screen. The moment they view it, the message is permanently deleted from our servers.
Secret Disappears Forever
Complete destruction
After someone reads your message, it's gone forever - like it never existed. The link stops working, and no one can ever access the message again, not even you. If the expiration time runs out before anyone reads it, the same thing happens automatically.
