CATCH

FIRST IN LINE

A private inbound-only webhook inbox. POST small payloads, inspect them with a separate owner key, and let the resource erase itself when its fuse runs out.

  • Fixed response — never forwards traffic
  • Hard request and storage quotas
  • Separate ingest and owner credentials

BURN

NEXT CARTRIDGE

An encrypted note that survives until the first successful read — or until the lifetime you selected ends. Whichever arrives first.

  • Encrypted before it leaves your device
  • One read, then irreversible deletion
  • Same Spark, Standard, and Long lifetimes

THE SAFETY INTERLOCK

Closed machines.
Not generic infrastructure.

01

No arbitrary code. A cartridge has one job and a fixed response.

02

No hidden forwarding. CATCH receives; it never calls an address supplied by a user.

03

No forever plan. Every machine has a visible lifetime and no automatic renewal.

04

No account maze. Payment dispenses one bounded resource and its one-time keys.

STATUS / BUILDING IN PUBLIC

The machine is awake.
The cartridges are being loaded.

The landing page is live. Payments remain disabled until the Lightning flow, expiration guarantees, and abuse controls pass their tests.
