Hey Brad, congrats on the launch, this app sounds super helpful and could be a game changer in protecting people’s data, any plans to add features for easier integration with existing finance tools?
We would love to connect in wealth planning apps, so people can go from there to our mortgage marketplace and start applying in anon mode, with data they already have in their app verified. Most of our integrations are with tools lenders use to make the data flow safer. But if you have ideas for the former, let us know!
Its great to see a product that finally puts consumer privacy first. Its encrypted storage and anonymous communication features are exactly what the market needs.
this is great. With the growing number of security breaches, it's hard not to think about the extent to which our private information is going to travel without our knowledge. Looking forward to using this at some point in time.
, how nice to hear from you - and via Product Hunt, no less! It's been many years! I can't wait for you to try it. Will it be for a move back east? :).
Saw this new app on a random tech blog, gotta say the idea of starting a mortgage anonymously is kinda out there, but hey, not sure how mainstream lenders will actually respond, do they even care about anonymity when they're all about your data security features sound solid but let's see if they hold up in real life and don't become another target for hackers like everything else these days, thoughts anyone?
Here's out take. Most new anon projects can't get mainstream lenders to go for it. Or, new projects are so far out tech-wise that adoption is a decade away. For Aster Key, we have lenders on board, adding one per week! Our last start-up had over 12 patents on mobile data, so we like using the phone as a decentralized node and then moving up the on-chain, defi, and Web3 on-ramps where and when it makes sense. Yes, hackers are smart, and every big, centralized database is not secure; which is why getting data off them is the key.
Cool idea but how much of this "anonymous" stuff do we actually need, like how many people are really that worried about this and what about if the system has bugs or gets hacked, aren't you just adding another layer to get worried about?
well, when someone tries to steal my stuff in person or digitally - I'm not cool with that. And I am equally pissed at how companies manage and share our data, which get hacked all the time if you read the news. I want to own and control my data, so I want it off others' servers. I want to permission it, know where it is. Go to any tech conference, and you'll hear vendors talking about "creepy cool" tech, as they call it, that is so invasive and passed around in ways that will get hacked. Let's stop that when we can :) Not another layer, it's reducing the amount of layers.
The mortgage and loan market is massive. Awesome project, guys! We'll give it a try and share our feedback with you.
Not really sure the world was waiting for another app, but hey, if it helps with those pesky mortgages without handing over my soul's data, maybe there's some potential here, wonder how well it actually keeps stuff anonymous though, might be worth looking into, but call me skeptical about not having my data sold, would love if there were options to verify before fully committing, genuinely curious about feedback from users who’ve tried it, does it work as promised or more smoke and mirrors
There is some info here: . We will do a better job as we grow to get all the letters like SOC, and more reviews by people respected in the industry, etc. . I don't mind your questioning at all, but it is not a some, smoke-mirror thing. We're a team that builds highly scalable and secure data systems, with well-known leaders and dev's in the real estate and adjacent data industries.
As an Aster Key fonder I can see the future and what is driving the need for change: We live in a world where we are increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. Aster Key prides itself in our "nothing is overkill" philosophy that drives all security policies. We're committed to staying ahead of the curve and protecting your personal and financial data! The truth is too often ignored: The traditional cybersecurity model is broken. It's time for a radical shift. Aster Key is bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3, transforming how we protect sensitive financial data. By decentralizing information and making the consumer's phone an impenetrable fortress, we're fundamentally changing the game. Imagine 10 million consumers with data stored only on their mobile devices, instead of all the pieces in a central location. This reduces the attack vector from a single, centralized target to requiring individual breaches for each user's mobile device. This is a tectonic shift and the future of security, where data is protected at its source, reducing the impact of breaches and saving both consumers and lenders time and money
The idea sounds cool, but I can’t help but wonder how secure it really is when everything is stored on your phone, doesn’t seem ideal if you lose it or if it gets hacked, plus convincing people to trust yet another app with their data could be tough, thoughts?
Yea, good points. We do a few cool things. We don't store your personal info the same place as your financial data. We encrypt fields not just the data base, etc. It's way safer than wherever you store stuff now. I'll let Eric chime in if you want more deets.
Congrats on the launch ! How does it ensure data security and privacy, especially when dealing with sensitive information across multiple platforms?
