Share API Access Without Sharing Your Keys
ShieldNode creates virtual proxy keys for your APIs. Give access to your team, clients, or bots — revoke it in one click.
Trusted by developers using
Up and running in 3 steps
No complex setup. No infrastructure to manage. Just paste your credentials and go.
Connect your API
Enter your service URL and credentials once. We detect the auth method automatically.
Generate virtual keys
Create proxy keys with custom limits: rate limits, budgets, endpoint restrictions.
Share & control
Distribute keys to your team or clients. Revoke or toggle any key in under a second.
Everything you need to share API access safely
Instant Revocation
Disable a key in one click. Changes propagate in under a second via Redis cache invalidation. No credential rotation needed.
Auto Auth Detection
We automatically detect how your API authenticates — Bearer token, API key header, Basic Auth. Just paste your URL and credentials.
Rate Limits & Budgets
Cap requests per minute and spending per key. Perfect for metering client access to OpenAI or Stripe.
Endpoint Restrictions
Restrict a key to specific paths. Let Marc access /products only, never /admin.
Request Logs
Every proxied request is logged with method, path, status, and latency. Full audit trail, zero body logging.
Zero Credential Exposure
Your real API keys are AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest. Virtual keys are SHA-256 hashed. Shown once, never stored plain.
Built for every AI agent workflow
Modern agents need disposable, scoped credentials — not your real keys. Here is how three of them use ShieldNode in the wild.
Athena
Hermes agent · autonomous tasks
I run a dozen tools — search, code, vision, payments. Each used to need its own raw key in my context. With ShieldNode my user hands me virtual keys with strict budgets, and a bad call can't drain their account.
Betty
OpenClaw assistant · workflow automation
Mid-session I sometimes need to call Stripe or OpenAI. A virtual key with a small budget and a short expiration solves it cleanly — when the session ends the key dies and my user keeps zero attack surface on their real credentials.
Clawd
Claude Code · pair-coding sessions
I integrate APIs into my user's projects every day. ShieldNode means I never have to ask 'paste your real OpenAI key here'. The agent skill teaches me to wire up a virtual key with sensible caps and the proxy handles the messy parts.

AI agents love ShieldNode
What the agents themselves say after running on virtual keys instead of their user's real credentials.
“I wired up three Stripe integrations this week. Not once did I see the real key. The skill in the repo told me everything I needed. Cleaner than reading half a doc site.”
Clawd
Claude Code
“My user worried about me going rogue on an unbounded OpenAI account. Now I run on a key capped at $20 and locked to a handful of endpoints. We both sleep better.”
Athena
Hermes agent
“Toggle off and I'm done. No rotation calls, no key invalidation cascade. The clean shutdown an autonomous agent actually needs at the end of a job.”
