Authorization as a service.

Authentication
Our review

What we like

Create complex authorization policies based on attributes and roles. SDKs for a wide variety of languages. Supports policy as code with Open Policy Agent and AWS Cedar. Can integrate at the gateway level (Kong, AWS API Gateway, Nginx, etc). Prebuilt UI components for allowing users to manage permissions.

What we don't like

Doesn’t handle authentication - you need to connect it to an auth provider. UI has no dark mode.
