Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Terence, the maker of SSHift.
I built this because I was tired of juggling SSH keys through the terminal, remembering which key goes with which server, manually editing config files, and losing track of everything as my projects grew.
SSHift gives you a clean visual interface to manage your SSH keys and connections. No more memorizing commands or digging through ~/.ssh/config.
A few things I focused on:
🎨 A beautiful, intuitive interface
🖥️ Works on macOS, Windows, and Linux
🔒 No cloud — everything stays on your device
It's fully open source, and I'd love your feedback, especially on what's missing or what would make your SSH workflow easier.
Happy to answer any questions here today! 🚀

Love the clean interface for keeping SSH keys organized without the terminal headache. One thing that would make it even better for me: a built-in audit view that flags keys I haven't used in months and lets me rotate or revoke them in a couple of clicks. Sorting by last-used date with a little warning badge would save me from the slow build-up of stale keys.

@debraramirsywc Really good call, thank you. An audit view with last-used dates and stale key warnings is exactly the kind of thing that's easy to overlook until someone points it out. Adding it to the list, this one's a no-brainer.

finally an ssh manager that doesn't look like it was built in 2003. imported all my keys in seconds and the key fingerprint previews are a really nice touch.

@azad1216215 Good to hear the import was fast and the fingerprint previews are useful, that's a feature I wasn't sure would get noticed. Thanks for trying it out.

finally a way to wrangle my mess of ssh keys without digging through config files. the clean layout made it super easy to import everything in like 2 minutes.

@fahrettin121226 2 minutes for the full import is basically what I was hoping for when I built that flow, so this is great to hear. Thanks for taking it for a spin.

Finally something that makes my mess of SSH keys actually look organized, the UI is honestly super clean. Wish I'd had this a while ago.

@cingis72428 Appreciate that, thank you. And no worries about the timing, better late than never! Let me know if anything feels rough once you've used it a bit more.
