Timelocked
Encrypts files into .timelocked packages that require sequential local compute work to decrypt after a configured delay
A local file encryption application that locks files into a .timelocked package requiring sequential CPU work to decrypt, enforcing a time delay before access rather than unlocking at a specific date. It addresses use cases where a file should exist now but open later, such as delayed access to funds, inheritance handoffs, and fallback releases. It is for individual consumers managing personal files and credentials on their own devices. It is delivered as an open source, offline application for Windows, macOS, and Linux with no account, internet connection, or telemetry.
