Good comparison! PrivateBin is great.

Basically, same browser encryption idea with two differences. They store encrypted data on the server's disk until expiry (which can be longer than Flashpaper) while Flashpaper is RAM-only, information nerver reach disk and burn at read or 24 hr max .

and Flashpaper has the AI agent side (API/MCP, claim-once dead-drop)

Thank you so much for constructive feedback!

You caught me. The design is AI-generated, I built the whole app with AI tools.

Really apprecaite the pointers; I agree with what u said, and will try re-read it again tomorrow (it 1.30 am here haha) and adjust the design.

Again. Thanks a lot for your support and kind words!

interesting. i thin it also can be useful for location scouting, like opening a retail store.

tbh, mostly just for fun. but also a bit issue from when I type API key in Claude and it's always remind me to delete or regen API keys. i think this might solve that.

Hi everyone! This is my first HN and I’m very new to the scene. My name is Min from Bangkok.At first, I just want to create a dead man's switch for personal use and for fun. then, I think about information that self destruct like a spy movie. after that, I try to come up with the better version of Privnote or Bitwarden with self-destruct and some kind of censoring or blocking download ability....
