What both publish
| Fact | Keyway | Stashbase |
|---|---|---|
| Encryption | Secrets are encrypted with AES-256-GCM, using a unique random IV for each secret. | The security page states that Stashbase uses AES-256 multi-layer encryption and workspace isolation. |
| Integrations | The documented available provider integrations are Vercel, Netlify, and Railway, with workflows to sync secrets. | The documentation describes integrations for AWS Secrets Manager, Google Cloud Secret Manager, and Vercel. |
| Purpose | Keyway is an open-source secrets manager that injects environment variables into process memory so they are not stored in a project .env file. | Stashbase manages application secrets across projects and environments and provides scoped controls for how developers, services, and coding agents use credentials and other resources. |
| Transport security | Keyway states that connections between its CLI, API, crypto service, and database use TLS 1.3. | The security page says traffic between clients, APIs, integrations, and internal services is encrypted in transit. |
