Built by Privacy Advocates, for Privacy Advocates

Protonme was founded in 2023 by a team of cybersecurity professionals and educators who noticed a critical gap: millions of people were adopting Proton's excellent tools but struggling to use them to their full potential.

We spent over 18 months developing a structured curriculum that bridges the gap between Proton's official documentation and real-world, practical use. Our guides are written by practitioners who use these tools every day — not technical writers working from a brief.

Today, Protonme serves over 12,847 learners across 64 countries, from individual privacy enthusiasts to Fortune 500 IT teams. We are independently operated and not affiliated with Proton AG.

Thousands of individuals and teams have used Protonme to confidently deploy and master Proton's full ecosystem.

"I'd been using ProtonMail for two years but had no idea I was missing half the features. Protonme's intermediate track completely changed how I use encrypted email. The custom domain guide alone saved me hours of trial and error."

Daniel Hoffmann
Software Engineer, Berlin

"We deployed Proton for Business across our 18-person team using Protonme's Team plan. The admin guides are incredibly detailed. Our IT consultant said it was the best-documented onboarding resource they'd seen for any privacy tool."

Rachel Chen
COO, Clearpath Consulting

"As a journalist, digital security is non-negotiable. Protonme's ProtonVPN Secure Core guide was exactly what I needed. Clear, accurate, and written by people who actually understand the threat model. Worth every penny of the Pro plan."

Léa Noémie

No. Protonme is an independent educational platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to Proton AG in any way. We are a third-party tutorial and guide service created to help users get the most out of Proton's publicly available products. All Proton product names and trademarks are the property of Proton AG.
Our editorial team reviews all guides on a rolling basis and updates them whenever Proton releases significant product changes. Major updates are typically published within 72 hours of a Proton product release. Pro and Team subscribers receive email notifications whenever a guide they've completed is updated. We maintain a public changelog so you can always see what's been revised.
Yes, absolutely. All Protonme subscriptions are month-to-month with no long-term commitments. You can cancel at any time from your account settings and you'll retain access until the end of your current billing period. We do not charge cancellation fees. Annual plan subscribers are eligible for a prorated refund within the first 30 days.
You don't need a Proton account to access Protonme guides, but you will need one to follow along with the practical exercises. Proton offers free accounts for ProtonMail, ProtonVPN, ProtonDrive, and Proton Pass. Many of our guides specifically walk you through creating and configuring those free accounts as a starting point. We recommend setting up a free Proton account before beginning any tutorial track.
