KeyEnv
What KeyEnv is
KeyEnv manages secrets and environment variables across development workflows. Its CLI lets teams run, inject, and manage secrets from a terminal, while separate development, staging, and production configurations allow environment-specific overrides. A scanner looks for hardcoded keys, tokens, and passwords across more than 149 patterns. KeyEnv can also rotate PostgreSQL and MySQL credentials on a schedule using a two-secret method intended to avoid downtime.
The platform lists SDKs, GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, serverless tools, and integrations for frameworks including Next.js, Django, Laravel, Spring Boot, and Rails. KeyEnv says secrets are encrypted on the device with AES-256-GCM, and that it cannot access encryption keys or plaintext secrets. Its security information also cites TLS 1.3 in transit and Argon2id key derivation. Plans include a free option for up to three projects and 100 secrets per environment, and Team starts at $3.33/user/mo (annual). New accounts receive a 14-day Team-feature trial without a credit card, then switch to Free unless upgraded.
