About steekem

Steekem is a small set of browser tools for sending things between two devices: a Wi-Fi password, a credit card for the family, a one-time note.

It works peer-to-peer. The two browsers find each other through a 6-character code, then talk directly. Nothing you share sits on a server we control. We never receive it.

Who is this for?

Steekem is for everyday sharing between people who already trust each other. A parent texting their adult kid the new Wi-Fi password. An IT person handing a one-time login to a colleague. A friend sending a card detail for a shared dinner reservation. The kind of thing that today ends up in a WhatsApp screenshot or, worse, in plain email.

It doesn't authenticate either side: if you're sending something sensitive, you should already know who you're sending it to.

About the name

Steekem comes from the Dutch stiekem — sneaky in the harmless, schoolyard sense. Like passing a note across the classroom when the teacher wasn't looking. The person it was meant for read it, and then it was gone.

How is this funded?

It isn't. Steekem is a side project I run. There are no ads, no trackers, and no analytics on what you share.

Who's behind it?

I'm Jan Jetze Beitler, an independent developer in the Netherlands. I run a couple of browser-based tools. Toolsnug is the calculator and converter side, same privacy stance, different shape. Steekem is the version for "I want to send something to my other device, or to a friend, without uploading it anywhere."

I build with AI assistance. Claude Code does most of the typing. The decisions about what to build, what to leave out, and how the pages sound are mine. If something feels off, that's on me.
