The server repository is licensed under AGPL-3.0 by default, with code in the bitwarden_license directory under the separate Bitwarden License, so the core is open source while some organization features are source-available. Vaults are end-to-end encrypted and synchronized through Bitwarden's cloud or a self-hosted server deployed with Docker.\n\nIndividuals get a free tier covering unlimited passwords and devices, with paid Premium, Families, Teams and Enterprise plans adding features such as advanced two-factor options, emergency access, SSO and policies. Passkeys can be stored and used for sign-in, and Bitwarden Send shares text or files with expiry. Bitwarden Secrets Manager is a distinct product for machine secrets with a CLI and SDKs aimed at developers and CI pipelines.\n\nThe self-hosted deployment requires running several containers and keeping them updated, and some enterprise functionality remains gated behind the commercial license even when self-hosted.",15  "capabilities": ["Encrypted vault for logins, passkeys, cards, identities and notes on all major platforms", "Hosted service or self-hosted Docker deployment", "Organizations with collections, roles, SSO and policies", "Bitwarden Send for ephemeral sharing", "CLI for vault automation and a separate Secrets Manager for machine secrets", "Passwordless login and passkey storage"],16  "workflows": ["Run a family or team vault on the free or paid cloud plan", "Self-host the server for data control", "Inject CI secrets with the Secrets Manager CLI"],17  "advantages": ["Open-source clients and server with a free tier", "Self-hosting option", "Regular third-party audits published by the vendor"],18  "limitations": ["Some organization features fall under the non-open Bitwarden License", "Self-hosting involves multiple containers and upkeep", "Developer tooling is less integrated than 1Password's SSH agent"],19  "prerequisites": ["Bitwarden account or a Docker host for self-hosting"],20  "audiences": ["Individuals and families", "Teams wanting open-source or self-hosted password management", "Developers using Secrets Manager"],21  "alternatives": ["1password", "infisical", "hashicorp-vault"],22  "comparison_notes": "1Password offers a more polished developer experience and SSH agent but is closed source, subscription-only and cannot be self-hosted.
