Your passphrase encrypts your data on this device. It is never sent to the server — if you lose it, your data cannot be recovered.

Enter your recovery code and choose a new passphrase. Your data will be re-encrypted — this can take a moment.

Working days each person can give this sprint (after holidays, client commitments, etc.). With no one listed, capacity assumes one full-time resource for the whole window. Once anyone is listed, only listed days count.

Profile picture

Shown as your avatar on team boards. Stored unencrypted (it isn't sensitive) so teammates can see it.

Recovery code

Backup

Decrypted copy of every note and image, built entirely on this device. Keep one safe — a lost passphrase is otherwise unrecoverable.

Reset app cache

If Cairn looks stale, stuck, or shows an old version after an update, this clears the cached app files and reloads. Your notes are not touched — they live encrypted on the server and in this browser's database.

Sample data

Adds example visions, products, projects, tasks and linked notes showing how the pieces fit. Delete them any time.

Teams

Shared spaces. A team's key is wrapped separately for each member, so membership is exactly the set of people who can read its content.

Users

Accounts on this Cairn. Content stays end-to-end encrypted — these are account controls only, never access to anyone's notes.

Invites

Who can sign up

Off means invite-only: new people need a link you generate below. Leave it off unless you deliberately want public signup.
