A new way of creating and remebering passwords.

MementoKey is not a password manager, we don’t store your passwords at all, not on the cloud, not in your browser, not on your computer. After you create a password with MementoKey it exists only in your head – but don’t worry, using our system you will have a strong, secure password that’s hard to forget.

How do I create a password?

To get started, use the Create New Password button on the right. Optionally, you can provide a name and/or site name so that you can be reminded of public words just by using the same name and site name, and clicking the Show Public Key button. Otherwise, if you leave them blank, the only way to get a reminder of the public words is to bookmark the Public Key link from the password page, or to write them down somewhere yourself (don't worry, they don't have to be kept secret).

There are four word pairs, so your complete password is four words long.

How do I remember my password?

When you create a new password with MementoKey we create four pairs of words for you. For each pair of words, one is part of your password, and the other is a reminder. For example, if your word pair is "Happy Frog" then you would picture a happy frog, and memorise that. The "Happy" part is your reminder, or memento, and is not secret. The "Frog" part is secret, known only to you. When you need to remember your password, you can see the non-secret prompt "Happy", and that reminds you of your mind-picture of a happy frog, and you know that the first part of your password is "Frog".

To see your non-secret words again, you can bookmark the Public Key link from the password page, or click the + button above and enter the same name and/or site you used to create the password, then click Show Public Key.
