Doppler

Doppler is a secrets management platform designed to handle credentials for both human developers and automated AI agents. It provides a centralized location for environment variables and sensitive data across various deployment environments, including on-prem and cloud infrastructure. The platform is categorized under Security & Compliance and Product Development.

Doppler supports a wide range of identities, including developers, AI agents, MCP servers, and automated workflows, ensuring they all have secure access to necessary APIs, databases, and internal services. A notable feature is the Doppler MCP server, which allows AI agents to request secrets natively without requiring custom scripts or hardcoded credentials. This capability extends secret management beyond traditional human users into the realm of automated workflows.

Security and compliance are built into the platform by default. Every secret access, whether by a human or an AI, is logged and traceable. The service is audit-ready and maintains SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance. The platform handles a high volume of traffic, reporting over 75 billion secrets read each month. Furthermore, the pricing model is based on user usage rather than the number of agents deployed, meaning costs do not change based on the quantity of AI agents utilized.

Best for

• Teams integrating AI agents into their development workflows.
• Organizations requiring SOC 2 or ISO 27001 compliance for secret access.
• Developers managing secrets across both cloud and on-premise infrastructure.
• Teams using automated workflows that require secure, centralized credentials.
• Companies with large numbers of automated processes or AI agents.
