About Password Manager Lab
Password Manager Lab covers password managers and the credential hygiene around them: Bitwarden, 1Password, Proton Pass, Keeper and KeePass, family and team plans, Android and browser behaviour, browser-saved passwords against a dedicated vault, and what the published security audits and architecture whitepapers actually say.
Reviews are built from vendor security documentation, third-party audit reports, published pricing and the applications' own release notes. Nothing here is a hands-on bench test, and ratings are framed as an assessment of the published evidence.

22 articles are published so far. New articles are announced on the RSS feed; there is no fixed publishing schedule and this site does not promise one.
How these articles are produced
Articles are researched from primary sources: vendor and project documentation, published standards and specifications, release notes, advisories, and measurements published by the people who took them. Drafts are produced with AI assistance and then edited against those same sources before anything is published. Where a figure comes from a datasheet or a third-party measurement, the article names the source and links to it so you can check the original rather than take this site's summary of it.
Everything here is published under the Password Manager Lab Editorial byline. That is an editorial desk, not a person, and no article on this site claims hands-on lab testing, benchmarking, or first-hand measurement. Nothing here should be read as a report of something this site physically tested.
Corrections
Getting it right matters more than getting it first. If something on this site is wrong, out of date, or missing the source it should cite, email hello@passmgrlab.com with the page and the specific claim. Substantive corrections are made on the page itself rather than quietly dropped.
How this site is funded
No outbound link on this site carries a referral or affiliate parameter, and nothing here earns a commission on any password manager it covers. There is no sponsored content, no paid placement and no display advertising. If an affiliate relationship is ever added, the disclosure page will say so first and the article carrying the link will disclose it on the page; no commercial relationship changes a conclusion, because the published evidence sets the ranking.
The full position is on the disclosure page. Read it before acting on anything here that reads like a buying recommendation.
