LessPass

LessPass is a stateless password manager.

Stop wasting your time synchronizing your encrypted vault. Remember one master password to access your passwords, anywhere, anytime. No sync needed. Try the demo at https://www.lesspass.com.

How to use LessPass

Web extensions

Install the web extension on Chrome or Firefox. When you need to generate a password, click on the password field on the web site you want to generate a password for. Hit Ctrl + Shift + L or Command + Shift + L on mac to open the web extension. Fill the login and master password and hit Enter. Your password is now copied in the clipboard. Hit esc key and paste the generated password on the web site.

Command Line Interface

If you want to use LessPass in your terminal, you can use pip to install LessPass CLI:

You can use the password generator functionnality on the web site directly. Even if for security reason, we recommend to use the web extensions.

:rotating_light: LessPass Server Access Update

LessPass Server is now reserved for existing users of the LessPass service. New registrations are no longer possible. This change is a way to thank our initial users for being part of the journey :beers:.

For new users who wish to use LessPass connected, you will need to self-host your own LessPass server. I will provide a guide in the future on how to deploy this using DigitalOcean. Currently, LessPass uses App Platform for automatic server deployment.

There are also alternative server implementations available. However, please use them with caution, as I cannot guarantee that these implementations fully support the latest API.
