Calt Vault [Beta]

Use at your own risk — beta (limited liability)

Beta software is provided as-is and as available. This is a free public beta, not production 1.0.
You use it entirely at your own risk. You alone are responsible for operation, passphrases, backups, data integrity, suitability, and all outcomes. Caltior does not run a managed vault service for you.
No warranty of any kind — express or implied — including merchantability, satisfactory quality, or fitness for a particular purpose — to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Limitation of liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Caltior and Duckbird LLC (the interim contracting seller under the Caltior brand) are not liable for loss of data, lost passphrases, corruption, loss of profit, business interruption, or any indirect or consequential loss, or for any claim arising from beta use.
Where we are liable, total aggregate liability for all claims arising from beta use is limited to the greater of USD 0 (free beta — nothing paid) and any amount you actually paid Caltior for Vault in the twelve months before the claim (expected: USD 0 during free beta).
Nothing on this page excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any right that applicable law does not allow to be excluded or limited. Those rights, if any apply to you, remain.

This is a binding terms: Schedule V. Website risk notice for beta, not a full product EULA. Production 1.0 terms, if any, will be stated when a paid product ships.

Honesty (read this)

Beta until 1.0 — keep originals. Do not treat beta as your only copy.
Not AGI-proof — protects data at rest in .calt for people without your passphrase. It does not stop every attack, a compromised machine, or every future tool.
After decrypt, plaintext is unprotected — if you open files in other apps or upload them elsewhere, that is outside Vault.
Passphrases stay local — set in the app / OS UI only. Never put a passphrase in AI chat.
You operate the tool — Caltior does not run your vault as a managed service.
Installer may be unsigned — when a download is listed, get it only from caltior.io.

What it does

Encrypt selected files into a portable .calt package on your machine.
Open and extract when you choose — under your passphrase.
Built for people working beside AI tools who want a simple local lock step for selected files.

What it is not

Not a guarantee against AI, malware, or lost passphrases.
Not enterprise compliance certification theatre.
Not a free Punch licence or field platform.
Not a paid Vault subscription during free beta.

Download

Free public beta for Windows. Package is a zip of the desktop app (unsigned). You must accept the beta download agreement before the download link unlocks.
