Zero-knowledge by design
Your master password derives the encryption key on each device. The server holds ciphertext only — there is no admin "view all" mode, even for us. A breach of our infrastructure leaks nothing readable.
WHY LITEPASSWORD
Built for small and mid-size businesses.
Three roles, not thirty
Admin manages members and account settings. Manager creates and edits vaults. View only reads what they're given. Per-vault user permissions sit on top. No matrix of obscure permissions to learn.
Flat, predictable billing
Free for 1 user, $5/mo flat for Family (up to 5), $10/mo flat for Business (up to 12). Not per-user. Hard limits visible in the app — no surprise overage, no per-seat scaling as you grow.
Real audit, real revoke
When you remove a member or revoke vault access, affected vault keys rotate. They cannot decrypt anything they previously had access to — even cached copies.
Recovery you control
Each user generates a one-time recovery key at master-password setup. They keep it. We have no copy. Lost master password means using the recovery key, not asking us.
Quick to onboard
New employee signs in, picks a master password, gets their recovery key, joins shared vaults. The whole flow takes under three minutes.

BUSINESS FAQ
Common questions from business owners.
What is the best password manager for small business?
A small business password manager should be zero-knowledge, role-based, and flat-priced (not per-seat). LitePassword fits the bill for teams of 1 to 12 — encrypted vaults that only your team can open, three clear roles (Admin, Manager, View only), and flat pricing that caps at $10/mo for the entire team. No surprise per-seat scaling, no SSO upsell.
How do small businesses manage passwords securely?
Stop sharing passwords in chat. Move shared credentials into a zero-knowledge vault that gates access by role and per-user permission. Set up a master password that derives the encryption key on each employee's device. Use the built-in generator for new credentials, and revoke access through the Users page when someone leaves — vault keys rotate automatically.
What does business password management cost?
LitePassword Business is $10/mo flat for up to 12 users (about $90/year with annual billing). It includes 150 vaults, 600 secrets, role-based access, and email support. Compare to Free ($0 for 1 user) and Family ($5/mo flat for up to 5 users).
Is LitePassword suitable for startups?
Yes. Startups typically grow from 1 founder to 10–12 people in the first year or two. LitePassword's Family plan covers the first 5 ($5/mo flat); Business covers up to 12 ($10/mo flat). Past 12 users the product isn't for you — look at 1Password Teams or Bitwarden Business.
Does business password management protect against breaches?
Because LitePassword is zero-knowledge, a breach of our servers exposes only ciphertext — your master password never leaves your device. We can't decrypt it; an attacker who steals our database can't either. Recovery is gated by a one-time recovery key you generate at setup.
How do we onboard new employees?
An admin invites them by email through the Users page. The new employee signs up, sets their own master password, and gets a personal recovery key. The admin then grants per-vault access — vault keys are wrapped with a one-time invitation key for the new user and unwrapped client-side on first unlock.
