A password manager stores your passwords and sends them to the relevant site as is.

A cryptographic signer holds your private key and never, under any circumstances, should ever send that anywhere.

Instead, when requested by a site, it uses the stored private key to cryptographically sign a message or event and send that result back.

A very, very crude example. Let's say my secret key is to multiply everything by 4. I get sent the number 3 and I return the number 12, but you never see the "x4" that I have stored.
