A good fit for

  • Startups and growing companies wanting a generous free tier with no feature gating
  • B2B applications needing SSO and SCIM provisioning included at no extra charge, within connection limits
  • Applications needing machine-to-machine authentication alongside standard user login
  • Regulated industries needing HIPAA/BAA compliance on the Enterprise plan

Not a good fit for

  • Teams wanting a flat, predictable monthly price rather than usage-based billing
  • Applications needing fraud prevention at very high volume without incurring per-fingerprint costs beyond the free allowance
  • Teams wanting a self-hosted authentication option rather than a fully hosted service

About Stytch

Stytch provides authentication infrastructure including passwordless login methods, B2B features like SSO and SCIM provisioning, machine-to-machine authentication tokens, and fraud prevention tools like device fingerprinting.

Stytch emphasizes that it doesn't gate features by pricing tier: every authentication capability is available on the Pay as You Go plan, with pricing scaling by usage volume rather than by unlocking features at higher tiers.

The Enterprise plan adds discounted usage rates, a support SLA, migration support, a 99.99% uptime SLA and HIPAA/BAA compliance for regulated industries, rather than additional core authentication features.
