WorkOS
Your app, Enterprise Ready.
WorkOS is a set of developer APIs and SDKs for adding enterprise features to applications, addressing the complexity of supporting single sign-on, directory sync, audit logging, and user management across many identity providers. It provides a unified interface that abstracts these integrations behind RESTful APIs with JSON responses and normalized objects.
Key capabilities include Enterprise SSO (SAML and OIDC), Directory Sync (SCIM and HRIS integrations), Audit Logs, User Management with AuthKit, social authentication, Magic Auth, Multi-Factor Auth, RBAC, Bot Blocking, Agent Auth, and an Admin Portal for IT-admin self-service setup. Modern SDKs are available for Node.js, Ruby, Python, .NET, Go, PHP, and Java, with webhook events for realtime directory updates and multiple environments for development and production.
WorkOS is aimed at developers and SaaS teams building applications for enterprise customers. Pricing follows a pay-as-you-go model with automatic volume discounts, or an annual credits plan with pre-paid discounts and support SLAs. User Management is free up to a monthly active user threshold, SSO and Directory Sync are priced per connection, and a staging environment is available at no cost for testing.
