Waitlist open

Hosted VAMP: your library in ChatGPT and Claude. Your files stay in your Drive. A hosted connection, without running your own server.

By joining, you agree to receive Hosted VAMP updates by email. No payment. Unsubscribe and delete your signup at any time. Privacy.

Free, always

The protocol, the vamp CLI and its library server (vamp-server, vamp-store, vamp-media) are MIT open source. Run your own library on your own machines and share it with the people and agents you allow; nothing on this page is needed for that.

FAQ

What happens when the trial ends?
Vampire switches to viewer mode. Browsing, search, the viewer, tags and folders, export, sync and connecting to a server keep working. Importing, clipping, screenshots and Eagle import ask for a license. Nothing is deleted or locked.
Can I always get my data out?
Yes. Your originals stay on your disks as they are, and the MIT vamp CLI reads and writes the same library with or without Vampire.
How do I activate it?
Polar emails your license key with the receipt. Paste it into Vampire, Settings, License. That Mac takes one of your 3 slots.
I have a 4th Mac.
Deactivate one from the app (Settings, License, or the prompt on the new Mac) and activate the new one. Macs not seen for 180 days stop counting.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Vampire checks its license about once a day when it can. Without a connection it keeps working fully for about four months, then drops to viewer mode until it can check again.
What does "every future update" mean?
Every new version of Vampire for Mac, free, for as long as you have the license. If a paid major version ever exists, it would apply to new buyers only.
Who sells it, and why + VAT?
Polar (polar.sh) is the merchant of record: it runs checkout, adds VAT, GST or sales tax where your country requires it, and sends the receipt. Prices are in US dollars before tax. We never see your card.
How do refunds work?
Within 30 days of a payment, email support@vamp.sh and we refund it through Polar. No questions. A refunded license stops working at its next check. Refund policy.
Do I need to pay to share my library?
No. Use vamp serve on your own machine and vamp join on a replica to connect the people, machines and agents you admit. This is whole-library access, not hosted public links.
