WorkOS
WorkOS provides APIs for the enterprise features B2B software companies are commonly asked for: single sign-on, directory sync (SCIM), audit logs, and AuthKit, its user management and authentication product. Pricing is pay-as-you-go with automatic volume discounts and the first 1 million active users free through AuthKit, while enterprise features like SSO and directory sync are priced per connection.

A good fit for
- B2B SaaS companies that need to add enterprise SSO and directory sync to satisfy large customers
- Teams that want a complete authentication product (AuthKit) rather than building sign-in from scratch
- Companies that want compliance-ready audit logs without building that infrastructure themselves
- Products that expect to add enterprise customers gradually, given the per-connection, pay-as-you-go pricing
Not a good fit for
- Consumer apps with no enterprise SSO or directory sync requirements, where AuthKit alone may be enough without the enterprise add-ons
- Very small teams that don't yet have enterprise customers asking for SSO, since per-connection pricing adds cost only once needed
- Teams that want a single flat price rather than usage- and connection-based billing across several products

About WorkOS
WorkOS is built for B2B software companies that need to satisfy enterprise customers' security and IT requirements, offering APIs and prebuilt UI for single sign-on (SAML and OIDC), directory sync for automatically provisioning and deprovisioning users from a customer's identity provider, and audit logs for compliance.
AuthKit is WorkOS's user management and authentication product, covering sign-up, sign-in, social logins, email verification and role-based access control, positioned as a more complete starting point than building authentication from scratch.
Pricing is usage-based across products: AuthKit is free up to 1 million monthly active users then billed per additional million, while SSO and directory sync connections are priced per connection with volume discounts at higher connection counts, and additional products like Radar (fraud protection) and audit log storage are priced separately.
