Bramble vs Phantasm

Bramble is a local-first password manager. Your passwords live in an encrypted vault on your device, not on someone else's server. There is no account to create and nothing phoning home. Everything cryptographic runs in a Rust core: Argon2id derives your key, AES-256-GCM encrypts your data, and envelope encryption gives every entry its own key. Site names, usernames, and notes are all encrypted, and secrets are wiped from memory after use. FEATURES - AutoFill passwords and one-time codes into apps and Safari, right from the keyboard. - Passkeys: create and sign in with passkeys, with Bramble as your own authenticator, for sites and apps that support them. - Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID, your master password, or a recovery code. - Store logins, payment cards, secure notes, and SSH keys, each with their own fields. - Built-in strong password generator. - TOTP / 2FA: add an otpauth URI or secret and Bramble generates the six-digit codes. - Import from KeePass (KDBX4), key files included. - Recovery code: a printable, high-entropy backup that unlocks your vault independently of your master password. - Optional breach check using k-anonymity, so nothing about your password leaves your device. - Auto-lock after inactivity. - Sync between your own devices peer-to-peer. No cloud, no relay holding your data. PRIVACY Bramble has no account, no subscription, and no telemetry. Your vault never leaves your control, and the code runs entirely on your device.

Phantasm is a private AI chat client for the backend you already run. Point it at your own server: Ollama, vLLM, llama.cpp, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint and chat with your own models over your own network. No account, no middleman, no data collection. YOUR SERVER, YOUR RULES • Connect with just a URL and a token — works against a bare Ollama out of the box • Add the open-source Phantasm orchestrator to unlock web search, image generation, and research modes • Multiple backend profiles for home network, VPN, or tunnel setups • Your token lives in the iOS Keychain; conversations are stored only on your phone A REAL CHAT EXPERIENCE • Fast streaming responses with markdown, syntax-highlighted code blocks with copy, and charts • Attach photos and files — vision models can see your images • Generated images appear inline; save or share them • Dictate messages with on-device transcription and have replies read aloud • Long generations survive backgrounding and pick up where they left off • Ask Phantasm from Siri and Shortcuts TOOLS ON YOUR TERMS • Per-chat toggles for web access and image generation • Optional device tools — location, calendar, Apple Health — are off by default and only shared with your own backend when you enable them • See the model's reasoning when a thinking model is selected PRIVATE BY DESIGN Phantasm operates no servers and collects no data. The app talks exclusively to the backend you configure — nothing else. What you say to your AI is between you and your hardware. Phantasm requires an OpenAI-compatible server that you provide (for example, Ollama running on your own machine). Feature availability depends on your backend's capabilities.
