Nothing about the AI wave touches a password vault.
NOT REALLY
why this verdict
Keep paying — OpenAI has not replaced it
OpenAI's version overlaps, but does not finish the security job, so this one still earns its $3/mo.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- Secrets management is cryptography, not intelligence. OpenAI, May 13, 2024 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? yes
- 2 of 2 listed replacements have a usable free tier: Bitwarden and Apple Passwords.
- What the call is worth $36/yr
- $3/mo at the entry paid tier — $36 a year per seat.

The backstory
1Password stores credentials with end-to-end encryption and increasingly manages machine secrets and device trust. There is no version of a language model that replaces a zero-knowledge vault. If anything, agents needing scoped credentials created new demand.
