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.
Thieves are increasingly aware of those too, and I believe they often shove the bikes into the van which has been modified to act as a faraday cage. This gives them time to remove the tracker without it being able to call home. GPS trackers are not valueless, and you can even DIY pretty easily - for instance, put a pre-paid SIM in an old phone you've replaced, hide the phone somewhere on the bike wired to the battery with a charger, and either install your own https://www.traccar.org/ server somewhere like a cheap cloud virtual server provider or just pay them a monthly fee to use one of their hosted instances. They have an Android client that makes it possible to track any phone you install it on. Literally the only cost if you do it this way is the pre-paid SIM card, and whatever you pay to run the Traccar server.
