How WordKey works

Home Mode

1. 1You land on a site and tap the Word? button.
2. 2A field slides open. You type your word.
3. 3Your device hashes the word locally — the plaintext never leaves.
4. 4WordKey recognizes the hash and issues a one-time token.
5. 5The site verifies the token. You're in. No password, no code.

Roaming Mode

1. 1You're on a borrowed or new device WordKey doesn't recognize.
2. 2The site shows a QR code instead of the word field.
3. 3You scan it with your phone, where WordKey already lives.
4. 4Your phone shows the request: which site, when. You approve with your word.
5. 5A signed token flows back and the new device signs you in.

Account Creation

1. 1There is no signup form. Ever.
2. 2The first time you use your word on a site, that's your account.
3. 3A permanent, unique ID is created for you behind the scenes.
4. 4If the site asks for details, your device offers to fill them — with your consent, once.

WordKey handles it, so you don't have to.

One-tap word rotation

1. 1Feel like your word's been seen? Change it in the app.
2. 2Pick a new word, confirm it, done.
3. 3It propagates instantly to every site you've connected.
4. 4Nothing to re-enroll. The old word simply stops working.
