  ShieldVault: Protect yourself from leaked secrets and regrettable messages — before you hit send.
  
  ShieldVault is a dual-purpose browser extension built for developers, security engineers, and anyone who works with sensitive credentials or wants to protect their digital reputation.
  
  Features: • Hard Blocks (Secret Detection): Instantly detects and wipes API keys, tokens, and credentials before they reach the chat. Scans for 46 secret patterns including AWS, OpenAI, GitHub, Stripe, database URLs, and private keys. • Soft Blocks (Digital Well-being - Plus Tier): Catches regrettable behavior—like angry rants, passive-aggressive phrasing, or all-caps shouting—and shows a "Preview of Shame" modal to give you a moment to reconsider before posting. • Proofs of Prevention: Logs your blocked secrets for your current session (metadata only, never the actual secrets).
  
  Supported Sites: • AI Chats: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot • Social & Email: Gmail, Outlook, LinkedIn, Reddit, X (Twitter)
  
  Privacy First (Zero Data Collection): All text analysis (secret detection and behavioral scanning) is done 100% locally in your browser. Absolutely no text, keystrokes, or page content is transmitted to any external server. The only external network request made is to securely verify your ShieldVault Plus license key against our Stripe integration.
  
  Pricing Tiers: • ShieldVault Basic ($3.99/mo): Instant hard-blocks for API Keys, Tokens, and Secrets before they are pasted into AI chats. • ShieldVault Plus ($5.99/mo): Includes everything in Basic, plus the Digital Well-being safety net (regrettable message blocking).

  ShieldVault watches what you paste and what you type — and stops you before you send something you'd regret.
  
  It catches two kinds of mistakes:
  
  SECRETS YOU SHOULDN'T SHARE
  API keys, AWS credentials, GitHub tokens, JWTs, database connection strings, and other credentials commonly leaked into AI chat tools, Slack messages, and emails. ShieldVault recognizes 30+ types of secrets and warns you before they leave your device.
  
  WORDS YOU SHOULDN'T SEND
  Rage, sarcasm, accidental reply-all, and the messages your tired self drafts at 2 AM. ShieldVault watches outgoing text in Gmail, LinkedIn, Reddit, ChatGPT, and other platforms — flagging emotional sends before they go out.
  
  WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
  
  100% local detection. The text being checked never leaves your device. No API calls, no cloud processing, no telemetry on your content. Only event metadata (which website, what time) is logged — and that stays on your computer.
  
  Free tier includes:
  - Unlimited secret detection
  - Unlimited confidential content detection
  - Unlimited code-block detection
  - 10 behavioral catches per week (rage, sarcasm, reply-all)
  
  Pro ($4.99/mo or $39 lifetime) unlocks:
  - Unlimited behavioral catches
  - Granular PII controls (SSN, credit card, phone, address)
  - Priority support
  
  WHY I BUILT IT
  
  I'm a chef who learned to code while recovering from surgery. I built ShieldVault after watching too many people — including myself — paste sensitive information into AI tools or fire off messages they immediately regretted. Most extensions either over-block (annoying) or under-block (useless). ShieldVault tries to be the one that gets it right: invisible until it matters, then loud enough to stop you.
