It provides flexible APIs for authentication, user identity, and complex features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

It’s a drop-in replacement for Auth0 (auth-zero) and supports up to 1 million monthly active users for free. Today, hundreds of high-growth scale-ups are already powered by WorkOS, including ones you probably know, like Vercel, Webflow, Perplexity, and Drata.

Recently, WorkOS announced the acquisition of Warrant, the Fine Grained Authorization service.
