WorkOS
free authentication to a million users, billed at the enterprise connection
free auth at any startup scale with enterprise features sold as clean line items — which become the entire bill as you land enterprise customers.
workos gives authentication away for the first million monthly active users, so the anchor figure for this page is $0. the next band is $2,500 a month per additional million. for any company that has not crossed a million users, the authentication line is genuinely free, and that is the pitch.
the bill arrives at the enterprise edge. sso is $125 per connection per month from one to fifteen, tiering to $100, $80, $65 and $50 as connection counts rise. directory sync for scim is billed on the same ladder, separately. audit logs are $125 a month per siem log-streaming connection plus $99 per million events retained.
the description above is ours, condensed from the ranking. pricing moves — check it on the vendor's own page before you rely on it.
