WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
I recommend you checkout Rclone (https://github.com/rclone/rclone) instead of Cryptomater, much more robust and powerful software. I used to use Cryptomator as well, but after my data exceeded certain size, it became slow and difficult to operate. Plus, once I went to pull my data out of it, I realised that it had reset file metadata on all my files (I didn't know what picture was taken when anymore, for example)
If you are using android there is RCX (https://github.com/x0b/rcx) as a frontend to rclone. Rclone can also be used in termux. Not sure about apple.
Round Sync is a currently active fork. Updates are infrequent, but there was one last week that fixed the (experimental) SAF support and updated rclone, asking other things.

> How hard is this to configure?
Not at all. Just ensure that you have WoL enabled on the host machine and than proceed to send a magic packet. You could even do this with Home Assistant [1] if you are into that. I did this with a script that used tcpdump to monitor for incoming traffic [2] for Plex with an additional (dummy) Plex server on the Pi. I also remember faintly that I had to add 1 library and 1 video file to make this work though.
Powering down - or sleep - is a bit harder. I built a 'Sleep on LAN' app [3] for myself years ago that could power down (or sleep) a system on demand using a REST API. I used this and Tautulli [3] with Home Assistant that would check if there were any active streams and if there wasn't any activity for a specified amount of time I would send a SoL request to my service.
As you can see it isn't super hard or complicated, but a bit cumbersome to find all the moving bits and make it work. But when it does, it's IMHO fantastic.
