Find answers to the most common questions about Dosel.
General questions
What is Dosel?
Dosel is an AI-powered desktop application that automatically changes your passwords across multiple websites. Instead of manually logging in and navigating settings menus, our AI agent does it for you.
How does it work?
The app uses AI browser automation to:
- Open your browser with your existing session
- Navigate to the account settings page
- Find the password change form
- Generate and enter a new secure password
- Save the change and report back
The AI sees the website structure but never sees or stores your passwords in any way that could be transmitted externally.
Which websites are supported?
Dosel works with most websites that have standard password change flows. This includes:
- Major email providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo)
- Social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn)
- Shopping sites (Amazon, eBay, Target)
- Streaming services (Netflix, Spotify, Disney+)
- Banking and financial sites
- And thousands more
Some sites with unusual security measures (like heavy CAPTCHA or hardware key requirements) may require manual intervention.
Does it work with two-factor authentication (2FA)?
Yes! The app handles common 2FA methods including:
- Email verification codes
- SMS codes (if visible in browser)
- App-based authenticators (you'll be prompted to enter the code)
Pricing and plans
Is there a free version?

Security and privacy
Where are my passwords stored?
Passwords are only stored in memory during the password change process. They are never:
- Saved to disk
- Sent to external servers
- Stored in logs
- Visible to the AI
After each session, passwords are securely cleared from memory.
Does the AI see my passwords?
No. The AI sees website structure and navigation elements but passwords are injected directly into form fields without being included in the AI's context.
Is my data encrypted?
Yes. Any temporary data is encrypted using AES-256-GCM. CSV imports are encrypted at rest using keys stored in your macOS Keychain.
For complete security details, see our Security & privacy documentation.
Compatibility
What operating systems are supported?
Currently, Dosel is available for:
- macOS 12 (Monterey) and later
- Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) and Intel Macs
Windows and Linux versions are planned for future releases.
Which browsers does it work with?
The app uses your existing Chrome browser profile, so you stay logged in to your accounts. Chrome must be installed on your system.
Can I use my existing password manager alongside this?
Absolutely. Dosel is designed to work alongside your existing password manager:
- Export passwords from your current manager
- Use Dosel to change them
- Export the new passwords and import them back
This workflow lets you keep using your preferred password manager while automating the tedious password change process.
