Credentials are a pain in the arse.
API keys. Passwords. Access credentials. Webhook secrets.
You know there is a proper way to handle them.
Maybe you know exactly what that is, but it takes too much time and discipline to keep rebuilding it.
Or maybe this is all new to you and you just want to stop making a mess of it.
Gateman makes the proper way quick, clean and easy.
Add the credentials in Gateman. Give each app access to what it needs. Keep building.
Get startedEvery app starts collecting keys.
A Stripe key. AWS credentials. An OpenAI or Anthropic key. A webhook secret. Then another set for staging.
The list is not the hard part. It is everything that gathers around it: loading and validating secrets, signing requests, verifying webhooks, configuring mail, setting permissions, and keeping production away from staging.
Putting credentials directly into every app is easy, but messy. Building proper credential infrastructure is better, but tedious.
Gateman is the easy version of doing it properly.
.env, config files and deployment settings.Works quickly. Gets messy.Built for vibe coders and AI-assisted developers.
A lot of software is now built by people using Cursor, Claude, Codex and similar tools. Those tools are excellent at getting an app working quickly.
They will also happily tell you to put STRIPE_SECRET_KEY or OPENAI_API_KEY in .env and move on.
Gateman gives the builder and the coding agent a better, predictable place for credential handling.
Experienced developers get the same benefit for a different reason: they already know how to build this properly and would rather not build it again.
Open Gateman.
Create the app.
Add the credentials.
Choose its access.
Done.
The GUI handles the boring decisions once. Your app gets the setup it needs, and nothing it does not.

Stored credentials
Encrypted; values are never shown after saving.
Your app still uses the services you already chose.
Gateman does not replace provider APIs with a proprietary abstraction. Stripe stays Stripe. S3 stays S3. SES stays SES. AI providers stay native.
Gateman handles the credential and the repetitive work around using it.
Underneath: AWS KMS encryption, Ed25519 application authentication, per-app access controls and optional IP restrictions.
