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.
Better yet would be to use spotifyd[0] for this. I tried to set this up with my RPi a while ago but was defeated by Linux audio. Instead I just bought a Sonos. Oh, well.

A few years ago I already experimented with this[1]. However I'm still wondering why the bluez api does not let you set the playback position[2]... it is pretty awesome to not only use raspberry as bluetooth receiver but also use GPIO-Buttons or IR remote to send commands to the connected bluetooth devices (play, pause, next, etc.), but without the ability of setting a playback position that feels kind of incomplete - I would have loved to implement the "rewind 30s" button :-)
