## Notes

WorkOS is a hosted platform that gives an application authentication, single sign-on, user management and authorization through its APIs. Its single sign-on speaks SAML and OpenID Connect, and the [documentation](https://workos.com/docs) describes RESTful endpoints that return JSON. The homepage lists further products beyond sign-in, among them directory sync, role-based access control, multi-factor authentication, an admin portal for corporate IT administrators, and fine-grained authorization. Migration guides cover moving users over from other authentication services.

## Worth knowing

The service runs on the vendor's infrastructure, and the pages read name no way to install or run it yourself. The pricing page includes a free allowance of active users before paid plans, and its enterprise plan includes single sign-on.
