Tired of juggling your phone or browser just to get your TOTP? Meet Clave — a lightweight, cross-platform desktop authenticator that simplifies secure authentication without the hassle.

Why I Built Clave ?

The frustration of constantly pulling out my phone for TOTPs or being locked into a browser extension pushed me to create a better solution. Existing desktop options were either boring or paid-only for basic features.I explored a few authenticator apps on the App Store. While I found one I liked, it only allowed adding a maximum of three accounts for free. To add more, I had to pay, even though the app offered very limited features.That’s when I decided to build my own app using Wails v3 + GO.
