If I can host my own server, this sounds like a very promising solution.

That is absolutely the intention. Currently the docs are lacking, but we will try to add directions about running your own server in the next few days.

Is it similar to Lastpass?

You should consider porting it to sandstorm.io - that would be perfect!

How do I get started if I want to build an Android app?

The Android app is in the mitro-core/android/MitroApp directory, and should build with the Eclipse ADT. See: https://github.com/mitro-co/mitro/tree/master/mitro-core/and...

I've been looking for open-source alternatives to LastPass. I'll give this a whirl -- thanks!

This looks really great, sadly this is the type of product where being an early adopter makes me nervous, but after a few minutes of playing with it I'm impressed with the UI.

I love the functionality of LastPass, I really do, but man their UI is terrible. I trust them from a security front though and in the end that is what matters most to me.

If Mitro builds up that same rep then I'll switch over, but until then waiting it out. (sorry!)
