That makes sense - and is definitely something we'll need to more clearly support. The distinction between the two cases is also pretty clear, thanks for you all your thoughts here! We had similar feelings about Auth0's org implem

Not yet, but we have started to get more requests for SMS support. If you'd be interested in an early version of our SMS support, definitely reach out and we can set you up with it.

Appreciate the feedback! We've had people use organizations in both ways, honestly. The implementation is definitely more like a Gmail group of users than a company. In your example, some people have implemented it as Acme is the organ

That makes sense, it definitely simplifies things. I like the idea of choosing between "everyone is signing up with their work accounts" and "users can join potentially multiple organizations, work related or otherwise".

For offboarding, we provide full data dumps of all user + org information - password hashes included. I want people to use us because they want to not because their data is stuck with us. I wrote about the differences between us and ORY Kra

Ah, sorry about that. The issue is if you try and accept an invite for a different email address than what you are signed in for, it stops you. But, it's definitely a confusing experience when testing since it's really common to c

Yup, the short lived tokens are JWTs - wasn't sure how much detail to go into in the description. For comparing to something like Kratos, probably the best way of putting it is, the first line of the quickstart guide for Kratos is &quo

I'm glad you find it approachable :) Definitely, WorkOS has more of an enterprise focus which is also important - we are more focused on early stage startups today.

Our main differentiator today is a much quicker time to go live - which usually boils down to us providing more hosted UIs out of the box, guides focused on B2B use cases, and libraries that are more centered around organizations. Anecdotal

Appreciate it! PropelAuth's authentication is powered by PropelAuth which is definitely confusing sometimes. I try and think of them as two different services (APIs/hosted pages as one service and an internal configuration service

Your landing page is really clean, I like it! It's always fun to hear the workarounds people do to avoid adding orgs/teams - my personal favorite is the single account everyone share a password case :) Happy to chat anytime - my e

Thanks! Generalizing it is something that we think a lot about. There's a lot of value in providing something simple like RBAC with a few roles, until you need something more custom. I personally think that the ability to opt into more

Thanks! SAML and SCIM are both on our short-term roadmap and are really important. We want to implement it such that the code you write for supporting orgs today works regardless of the type of integration - and then the differences would p
