Amaca: About Us

What Makes Amaca Unique?

It's Easy and Safe

Amaca^® makes it a breeze for anyone to securely create and control their own encryption keys, and to encrypt their written content.

It's Free

And even so, with Amaca you and your data are not the product.

It Protects Your Anonymity

No registration, sign up, or login is required.

App & Platform Independence

No apps for you to buy or download from (activity-monitoring) app stores.
Neither the encryption process nor your encrypted content are confined to live within an app or platform.
You can encrypt your written content from any device with a browser and an Internet connection, using your own keys.
Your encrypted text can be safely stored, sent, or posted wherever or however you want.

If installed, it works offline too

Now you can easily install Amaca in your computer and devices, and use it even without an Internet connection!
