Serverless Authz.
Think of an authz (not authn) solution that can be plugged into next.js's serverless API (REST and GraphQL) easily through a javascript library or middleware.
At the early stages, still working out the feature set and roadmap, but looking to build a simple MVP that provides immediate value to SaaS builders.
Looking for like-minded engineers with domain knowledge in other areas (not necessarily technical) that can see how this solution may be applied more broadly.
I'm a former SWE at Google, working at a startup now, and running my own ramen-profitable SaaS (SheetUI) on the side.
- leetrout 5y agoHave you seen https://authzed.com/ https://authzed.com/? I know it's not what you are saying but seems relevant if you haven't already seen it. I think there is a ton of room for new players in the authn and authz markets. I like how narrow you are focused.
- tjchear 5y agoI haven't seen it. Thanks for sharing it with me! Looks like they're going for a graph based system, which subsumes all kinds of authz modeling. That's pretty awesome.
- jzelinskie 5y agoFull disclosure: I'm an Authzed founder. Our SaaS product is serverless, but we also offer on-prem support which is easy to get started with as the core database is entirely open source[0].
