Even if it appears easy, there is a lot of hidden complexity in identity access management (IAM). You don’t want to do it on your own.
In simple cases, it takes an average software team 840 hours to implement authorization logic. As you add features to your application, this number grows rapidly.
Without expertise, you leave your door wide open to malicious attacks. You risk compromising your user data, non-compliance with local regulations, and massive business losses.
Instead of building your own authorization logic, call our IAM API. Written by developers for developers.
Define multiple levels of access and group them by user roles. As granular as you want.
Plug in any of your preferred ID providers with a simple API call. No need for complicated setup.
Securely share credentials between your software modules with unlimited free machine to machine tokens.
Scale your usage up or down without worrying about pricing tiers. We bill you only for the API calls that actually bring you value.
Something isn’t quite as you want it? We’re happy to support you throughout your authorization journey, regardless of your company size or how much you pay.
Get a full audit trail of your access records, easy to search and filter. No more mysteries.
View and manage permissions, roles, and users comfortably from your browser.
Curious about which areas of your application are in active use and how often? It’s all there in the Administrator dashboard.
Our most important pain point was to secure user data in a reliable way. Authress decreased our pain considerably here among cost of setting this system up ourselves, time to implement, and level of quality in the implementation. I'm grateful that this product exists. It made the cost of fixing the problem 'possible'.

Ellison, Founder and CEO, VenturemarkOur architecture is very modular with a lot of separate, autonomous microservices, so we needed distributed permission management. With Authress, my team was able to bake it in from the beginning. Architecturally, it’s been a great choice.
As we’re working in agile fashion, it’s great to have an ability to change roles and permissions easily as we go, instead of having to set them in stone at an early phase.
I couldn’t find another solution that offers this level of flexibility and permission control, and building our own would mean not focusing on our core competency. I was lucky to find Authress!

This is how Authress will know who is which user. Authress works out of the box with OIDC compliant JWTs.
We support most common languages so you don’t have to write any additional code. You can also call our API directly.
Pass the user JWT to Authress calling the AuthorizeUser method.
Authress comes with default roles for most common cases. If your permission model is more sophisticated, adjust the roles to fit your needs.
