WorkOS

What is WorkOS?

WorkOS is a developer platform that provides APIs and SDKs for implementing enterprise-ready authentication and security features. The platform enables developers to quickly integrate Single Sign-On (SSO), Directory Sync, Audit Logging, and related functionality into their applications without building these capabilities from scratch. The platform serves software development teams and companies that need to offer enterprise features to their customers or internal applications. It addresses the complexity of implementing SSO protocols, managing user directories, and maintaining audit trails—capabilities typically required by enterprise buyers. WorkOS offers a free tier to help developers get started, with SDKs available across multiple programming languages and frameworks. The service handles the technical complexity of identity management and compliance features, allowing development teams to focus on core product functionality while meeting enterprise security and compliance requirements. The platform reduces development time and infrastructure costs associated with building enterprise authentication systems in-house. By providing pre-built, maintained APIs for these common enterprise features, WorkOS helps companies accelerate their path to enterprise readiness without requiring specialized security expertise on their development teams.
