About Burner Note Expand
Burner Note provides a free, open-source service for sending secure, ephemeral notes. It emphasizes a zero-knowledge architecture and client-side encryption using AES-256-GCM, ensuring that notes are encrypted before leaving the user's device and cannot be read by Burner Note itself.
Notes are permanently deleted after their single view, offering a high level of privacy and security. The platform is designed for users who need to share sensitive information temporarily without tracking or ads, serving those who value technical transparency and verifiable security.
