How it works
01

Write your secret

Type or paste any sensitive content — password, API key, private message, or credentials.

02

Get an encrypted link

BurnLink encrypts it with AES-256-GCM and returns a unique one-time URL. Instant.

03

It burns after reading

Your recipient opens the link. The message is revealed, then permanently and irrecoverably destroyed.

Why BurnLink

AES-256-GCM Encryption

The same standard NATO and the NSA use for Top Secret data. Mathematically unbreakable.

Self-Destructs on Read

Permanently deleted from all servers the moment it is opened. No archive, no backups.

Zero-Knowledge

We store only the encrypted payload. BurnLink staff are structurally incapable of reading your secret.

No Account Required

Completely anonymous. No email, no sign-up, no credit card. Open and send.

Optional Passphrase

Add a passphrase so only the intended recipient can unlock the message — a second authentication factor.

Configurable Expiry

Set a custom view limit (1–100) or expiry time. You control how long your secret exists.

Better than the alternatives

vs Email: Email stores messages forever on multiple servers. BurnLink content self-destructs — expired links reveal nothing.
vs Privnote: Same concept, stronger explicitly-documented AES-256-GCM encryption, modern interface, optional passphrase, zero account required.
vs Signal / WhatsApp: No app install, no account for either party. One link. Works over email, SMS, Slack, or any channel.
