Livybolt

Accountless · self-custody · Lightning-paid

Pay in sats. Collect answers only you can decrypt.

Livybolt is a survey tool with no accounts and no server that can read your data. One Lightning invoice makes a survey live; one 12-word seed on your machine is the identity, the keys, and the entire backup.

Accountless by default

No sign-up, no email, no password — for you or your respondents. Holding the seed is what makes a survey yours.

One seed, self-custody

Your identity and every per-survey key derive from a single seed that never leaves your machine. The server sees only public keys and ciphertext.

End-to-end encrypted

Respondents seal answers to your survey’s key in their own browser. There is no plaintext option — the server stores envelopes it cannot open.

Recoverable from 12 words

Lose the machine, restore the seed, run vault rebuild: every survey and its keys re-derive. The words are the whole backup.

Spin up your first survey — pay in sats, keep the keys.

Building an agent? It drives the same CLI — scriptable, self-custody, no browser required.
