ExpressVPN Expands Into a Privacy Suite With Four Standalone Apps

Two tools launch today, with an AI rollout delayed and U.S. identity protection scheduled for February 26.

Overview

  • ExpressVPN is bundling a password manager, email aliasing, a private AI platform and an identity protection app into its existing Basic, Advanced and Pro tiers.
  • ExpressKeys is now a standalone password manager with zero‑knowledge encryption, autofill and an authenticator, replacing the in‑app version and remaining inside the VPN app only until March 5.
  • ExpressMailGuard launches for all plans to generate burner email addresses that forward to a real inbox, with tier limits such as 10 aliases/10MB on Basic, 50/100MB on Advanced and unlimited on Pro.
  • ExpressAI’s public release is postponed for further refinement with no new date; the encrypted service says it will not use prompts for model training and will offer plan‑based limits on models, credits and uploads.
  • Identity Defender is slated for a February 26 U.S. launch for Advanced and Pro users, offering data‑removal scans, credit monitoring, identity‑theft insurance and other alerts for exposed personal information.
