How to Switch from Doppler Team to Secretbox (Step-by-Step)

Switching from Doppler Team to Secretbox is mostly a matter of following the same three steps every OneTimeSuite app uses — buy once, deploy or install, bring your workflow over.

Step 1: Buy once on Whop

One payment of $39 gets you the packaged 1-click installer, or clone the MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/env-secrets-manager-mvp and run it yourself for free.

Step 2: Deploy on your own server

docker compose up on a $5 VPS behind HTTPS, or run the Electron desktop build, then set ADMIN_PASSWORD and back up your MASTER_KEY.

Step 3: Wire up your CLI

Point the zero-dependency CLI at your host with a scoped token and run secretbox pull or secretbox run to feed secrets straight into your deploys.

What to expect during the switch

Secretbox covers the same core workflow as Doppler Team, so most people are productive within the first session — see the full feature list and FAQ on the product page before you commit.

Why make the switch at all

Doppler Team runs $12/user/mo, forever. Secretbox is $39, once. Under four months of Doppler for a five-person team already costs more than Secretbox, which then never charges per seat again.

Try Secretbox — $39, once

Projects, environments and versioned secrets with a CLI that pipes straight into your .env.
