## Description

Retyc adds a button to Gmail's compose window so you can send end-to-end encrypted files to your recipients without leaving your inbox. Drop a file anywhere on the Gmail tab, and Retyc encrypts it in your browser before uploading. Nobody else, not even us, can read the contents.

<strong>How it works</strong>
<ul><li>A "Retyc" button appears in every compose window</li><li>Click it to open a panel right inside Gmail</li><li>Retyc reads the To, Cc and Bcc fields so it knows who you're sharing with</li><li>Pick files or drag them onto the Gmail tab</li><li>Files are encrypted on your machine, then uploaded</li><li>Recipients get a secure link in your email</li></ul>
Your login stays in local browser storage. File contents <strong>never leave your browser unencrypted</strong>.
