About

SafeVault exists because most password-manager reviews online are affiliate copy with no hands-on testing behind them. We install every app ourselves, use it for at least two weeks, and score it against the same fixed criteria — see our methodology for the full breakdown.

We started in 2025 after one too many "best password manager" lists turned out to be ranked by affiliate commission rather than security. Every score on this site is set before we know which links pay the most, not after.
