Your Safe in the digital world, protects you in the real one.
Time Release Safes is end-to-end encrypted protection for the moments you record and the important things you need to send — even if you're not around to send them yourself. Capture what happened. Keep it safe from whoever takes or breaks your phone. Send it where it matters. Choose exactly when it arrives.

A safer way to hit record
You already grab your phone when something escalates. Most people then post it, lose it, get it taken, or forget it on a camera roll. TRS replaces that flow with one that respects the weight of the moment.
Capture it before it disappears
No app icon. No viewfinder. No notification. A composite-gesture activation (configurable per user) opens the camera and starts recording without unlocking your phone. The first frame is captured before an adversary realizes you're recording.
Survives confiscation
Recording streams off your phone in real time. Encrypted chunks buffer to our servers as fast as your connection allows. No signal? The buffer holds locally and flushes the instant connectivity returns. Either way, whoever takes your phone can't retroactively unsend what's already gone.
Released to the people who should see it
A designated parent, lawyer, survivor advocate, or coalition of trusted contacts receives the recording according to the rule you set: immediately, on a timer, on a trigger, or only if multiple people agree. Nobody you didn't authorize.
When your phone is the only witness, the recording needs to be safer than the phone.
Phones have been the most reliable witnesses of the last fifteen years. The recordings that survived changed history. The recordings that didn't survive — confiscated, deleted, lost when a device was destroyed — left those moments to one-sided memory. TRS exists for the second category. The architecture treats what you captured as more important than the device that captured it.
Trust infrastructure for everything you care about
End-to-end encrypted
Encrypted on your device with XChaCha20-Poly1305 — the modern authenticated cipher used by WireGuard and TLS 1.3. Detects tampering. Even we can't open your Safes.
Triggers that fit your life
Letters for your kids. Life insurance policy. Final wishes. Encrypted today, delivered exactly when you want — even if you're not around. A Releasee, a date, or your own long silence. First trigger wins.
Bound to the right person
Recipients are bound by verified email and phone — not a password to share.
We can't give the government what we don't have.
Court orders, subpoenas, and government requests retrieve only ciphertext — scrambled bytes that can't be unlocked without keys held only by you and the people you sent it to. No one at Time Release Safes can open your Safes. More on the security page →
Built first for the moments that matter most
For survivors
Hidden-from-abuser access. No app icon on the home screen. Configurable activation gestures. Coordination with your designated advocates and counsel.
How TRS supports survivors →For any moment that needs a witness
Confrontations, roadside encounters, workplace incidents, public-safety moments. Anywhere what you remember and what the other side remembers might differ later. TRS makes your phone a witness that can't be silenced by whoever was on the other side of the conversation.
When the recording is the only witness →For families & estates
Final wishes. Letters meant to be read later. Memories you'd want shared if the worst happens. Instructions for if you can't speak for yourself. This is what TRS was built for. Use it for those items today.
