Envlet and Infisical
Infisical is an open-source secrets platform you can self-host, with a wide surface from secret scanning to PKI. Envlet is a hosted service focused on the env vars a process starts with.
What Infisical does well
Infisical's server is open source and self-hostable, and its cloud paid plans are priced per user. It covers secrets management, certificate management, SSH, and more. If you must run the server yourself, it is the obvious choice.
Where Envlet differs
- 01Who counts as a seat
- Envlet bills humans only. Five coding agents are five tokens and zero seats, on every plan including Free.
- 02Agents get their own tokens
- Every coding agent gets its own token. Production starts withheld for it, and the audit log shows what it read, under its own name.
- 03Setup is one command, or one sentence
- envlet run -- in front of the command you already use, or the MCP server and the words move us to Envlet. Nothing to install on the host, nothing to operate.
- 04Hosting
- Envlet is hosted only. The SDKs are open source; the server is not.
When to pick which
Pick Envlet when
You want a hosted tool that your agents and CI use the same way your team does, with nothing to operate.
Pick Infisical when
You need to self-host, or you need PKI, SSH, and scanning in the same product.
