Show HN: Telex Page – Turn secrets into AES 256 encrypted PDFs, locally

3 points by cucho a month ago · 1 comment · 1 min read

Hey! Every time I had to send something confidential, like a password, secret, .env, etc, I ended up using some openssl enchantment. It worked, but it was annoying for the team and impossible for my family.

PDF docs already support strong AES 256 encryption and open pretty much everywhere. The annoying part was creating a doc and then jumping into a cli just to encrypt it.

So I made telexpage.com. It runs 100% local in your browser and makes creating an encrypted PDF from a message as simple as possible. It works offline too.

It's been really useful for me, hopefully it's useful for you too.

Remember to send the password trough a different channel!
