Free accounts come with 100MB storage. Your documents are encrypted before they leave your device, so Cryptee can’t see your documents. Use the code “privacytools” at the checkout for a 10% lifetime off.
Cryptee
crypt.ee
Our take
Estonia-based with client-side encryption, so Cryptee genuinely can’t read your documents, and it handles photos as well as notes, which most rivals don’t. The constraints are real: the free tier is a tight 100MB and the project is small with no public code to inspect, so you’re trusting a closed-ish service more than an audited open one. Good for people who want encrypted documents and private photo storage in one place and are willing to pay past the free tier. Heavy note-takers wanting open code should look at Standard Notes.
