Api Vault

Hey Indie Hackers!

I’m Amay, a full-stack dev building useful dev tools. Recently, I built something out of a real problem a friend faced and now I’m launching it as a product

The Problem

One of my friends had a bunch of projects using API keys that expire every few weeks. Each time a key expired, he had to:

• Manually update the key in his code

• Rebuild the project

• Re-deploy the app

😩 Painful, right?

We realized there was no simple, secure way to store and rotate API keys without touching the code.

The Solution: API Vault

So I built API Vault, a secure, developer-first way to store, manage, and access API keys or secrets.

With API Vault, you can:

- Store keys securely
- Access them via SDK (JS/Python) or REST API
- Rotate keys in the dashboard, no code changes
- Get full logs of who accessed what, and when
- Manage secrets across multiple projects in one place

It’s like a focused “1Password” but built for developers and teams managing API keys.

Tech Stack

• MERN Stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node)

• SDKs in JavaScript & Python

• REST API for universal access

• Hosted with Vercel + secure token system

Goal

We’re aiming to get 100 devs using API Vault in the next 30 days  and would love your feedback 🙏

If you’re a solo founder, indie hacker, or dev working on multiple projects, give it a try. It’s free to start and takes 2 mins to set up.
