Authgear

Open-source login and identity service with passkeys, SSO, MFA and user management, self-hosted or offered as Authgear Cloud.

Authgear is a login and identity service that a team runs on its own servers or uses as the hosted Authgear Cloud. The server is written in Go and depends on PostgreSQL and Redis, as the local deployment guide states. Applications connect through OpenID Connect and SAML single sign-on, and through SDKs for Swift, Kotlin, Flutter and React Native. A Helm chart covers Kubernetes installs, and Authgear ONCE packages an easy-install version for a Linux server under a one-time license that is purchased.

An admin portal sits on top of the server. The homepage says everything the portal does is also available through the Admin API.

Worth knowing

The pricing page lists an EU data region for Authgear Cloud as coming soon.
