  • api_guard

    JWT authentication solution for Rails APIs

    • I'm developing with api_guard for my React Native app and it's great. I started developing with Knock and it lacked a lot of features I needed (refresh tokens, blacklisting, etc.)

  • 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.
