What is Auth0?
Auth0 is a hosted identity service that handles login, signup and user management for applications and APIs.
Who is it for?
Teams that need enterprise SSO, compliance controls and a deep identity feature set. Small projects usually need a fraction of what it offers.
What are the alternatives to Auth0?
Clerk and Kinde are hosted with more opinionated developer UX. SuperTokens, Logto, Hanko and Stack Auth are open source and self-hostable, while Better Auth and Lucia Auth are libraries that run inside your own app.
