About Auth0
Auth0 sells a customer identity and access management platform. It provides authentication, access management, user management and security features for applications and APIs. The company serves consumer brands, B2B software firms and enterprises that need to manage sign-up, login and user data across many products. The platform works through SDKs, Quickstarts and embeddable UI components, so developers can add login to any language or framework. It offers passwordless login, social logins, adaptive multi-factor authentication, bot detection and breached password detection. Fine-grained authorization and token vault features control what users and AI agents can reach. Auth0 also provides extensibility tools. Actions, Forms, Event Streams and the Auth0 Marketplace let teams customise identity flows with code or visual editors.
