> About AliasVault, is there a catch? It’s free and open source, they don’t seem to have any business plan at the moment

If I remember correctly, it’s in beta currently and will eventually introduce premium plan. According to the dev, it’s also possible to self-host everything. So if you don’t trust their cloud, you could use your own server.

I agree it’s pretty new and not well-known, so it’s natural to be skeptical about it. I tested it and enjoy using it so far. I’m currently using it for all my new throwaway/test accounts. I really hope this project grows and stays for a long time (or I hope one day I will be good enough at self-hosting to host it myself if necessary).

> I first heard about it in this thread, nowhere else so far

There’s a post on reddit: [Reddit - The heart of the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1hvrat0/aliasvault_opensource_password_email_alias/)
