Overview#
Proton Pass is primarily a password manager that includes a Hide-My-Email alias generator powered by SimpleLogin infrastructure. It is a convenient option if you want a single app for both passwords and basic shared-domain aliases.
However, if you already use 1Password, Bitwarden, or Apple Passwords, Proton Pass duplicates your vault while hiding advanced alias controls (such as custom domains, subdomains, and directory rules) across the separate SimpleLogin web dashboard.
AliasFleet is a standalone alias management platform that works alongside any password manager. Its free plan includes 10 aliases and 3 personal subdomains, while Pro and Business add custom domains, 1x1 tracker pixel stripping, link parameter scrubbing, Email X-Ray forensics, vendor leak alerts, a Quick Send composer, and webhooks in a single dashboard.
Feature comparison#
Here is how AliasFleet and Proton Pass Aliases compare across mail routing, privacy controls, custom domains, and pricing.
Why look for a Proton Pass alternative#
Pairs with 1Password, Bitwarden, or Apple Passwords#
If your passwords and passkeys already live in 1Password, Bitwarden, or Apple Passwords, installing the Proton Pass browser extension just to generate email aliases causes competing autofill popups on login forms.
The AliasFleet browser extension focuses strictly on email fields (with context-menu fast alias generation and in-page autofill), so it works cleanly alongside your existing password manager without trying to take over password autofill.
One unified dashboard instead of two separate apps#
Proton Pass exposes basic alias creation inside the password vault, but advanced settings like custom domains, DNS verification, and contact management live inside the separate SimpleLogin web portal.
AliasFleet keeps every control in a single dashboard: aliases, 3 free subdomains, custom domains, real-time DNS verification, conditional routing rules, Quick Send, activity logs, and webhooks.
Server-side tracker stripping for any inbox#
Proton relies on the Proton Mail client to block tracking pixels when you open an email. If you forward your Proton Pass aliases to Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail, the raw HTML trackers travel right into your inbox.
AliasFleet Pro and Business strip 1x1 tracking pixels and scrub tracking query parameters (utm_*, fbclid, gclid) on the mail server before forwarding, protecting you regardless of which email app you use.
Which one fits your setup#
Choose AliasFleet if#
- You already use 1Password, Bitwarden, or Apple Passwords and want a dedicated alias extension that does not conflict with password autofill.
- You want 3 personal subdomains on the free plan.
- You forward aliases to Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail and want 1x1 tracking pixels and link parameters stripped before delivery.
- You want custom domains, Email X-Ray forensics, Quick Send, routing rules, and webhooks in one unified dashboard.
Choose Proton Pass if#
- You want a combined password manager and basic alias generator in a single extension.
- You already pay for Proton Unlimited and read all your mail inside Proton Mail.
Moving a custom domain from Proton Pass#
If you use your own domain on Proton Pass, you can move it to AliasFleet without losing mail. Set up the domain and your aliases in AliasFleet before you update the MX record at your DNS registrar.
Export your custom domain aliases
Log in to the SimpleLogin portal with your Proton account and export your aliases as a CSV file.
Add your custom domain in AliasFleet
Add your domain in AliasFleet, verify your destination inbox, and recreate your custom domain aliases or enable catch-all routing.
Publish AliasFleet DKIM and SPF records
Add the af._domainkey CNAME record and update your SPF TXT record to include mail.aliasfleet.com.
Update your MX record
Point your domain MX record to mail.aliasfleet.com (priority 10) and click Verify in AliasFleet.
