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.
From their repo:
DOSBox-X is a cross-platform DOS emulator based on the DOSBox project (www.dosbox.com).
Like DOSBox, it emulates a PC necessary for running many MS-DOS games and applications that simply cannot be run on modern PCs and operating systems. However, while the main focus of DOSBox is for running DOS games, DOSBox-X goes much further than this. Started as a fork of the DOSBox project, it retains compatibility with the wide base of DOS games and DOS gaming DOSBox was designed for. But it is also a platform for running DOS applications, including emulating the environments to run Windows 3.x, 9x and ME and software written for those versions of Windows.

There's work for that for the Mister system, https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/ao486_MiSTer
For a lot of those 16bit installers, WineVDM works wonders. https://github.com/otya128/winevdm It's not perfect compatibility for all 16bit programs but it does tend to work well enough at anything I've thrown at it.
