In their own words
SaveKnight
SaveKnight is a Windows desktop app for backing up PC game save files and retaining earlier versions. It scans a computer and uses Ludusavi’s database to locate saves; the download page says that database covers more than 10,000 games. The app targets PC games storing saves locally, runs in the background, and backs up when games exit. Cloud copies are encrypted, can be accessed from any PC and synchronize across a user’s gaming PCs. Version history supports manual rollback to an earlier save. The app is open source under the MIT License and built with Tauri and Rust. Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit, is required, along with at least 4 GB RAM, 100 MB free disk space, internet for cloud sync and a SaveKnight account. The Free plan has 2 game profiles and 500 MB storage. Knight costs $5 a month; Legend costs $15 a month.
