Why deploy on Railyard

Railyard provisions all 2 services in this stack together — yopass, yopass-memcached — wired to reach each other over the private network, on a server you already pay for.

Deploying Yopass is one piece of a bigger stack you can keep building — add a database, a worker, a cache, or another app, all on the same servers you already pay for.

Good for

Sharing a password or API key with a teammate without leaving it sitting in Slack or a support ticket forever
A self-hosted alternative to onetimesecret.com or privnote, under your own domain

Good to know

No volume, by design — secrets live only in Memcached's memory and are deleted on first view or expiry; a Memcached restart also wipes any pending, unviewed secrets
No accounts or login — anyone with the generated link (and the decryption key in the URL fragment) can view the secret once
