About Logto

Logto is an open-source identity service built on OpenID Connect and OAuth 2.1, with a polished admin console and customisable sign-in experience. It covers email, phone, social and passwordless sign-in, passkeys and MFA, organisations for multi-tenant SaaS, enterprise SSO, role-based access control, machine-to-machine apps and API resource protection. SDKs exist for most web, mobile and back-end frameworks, and it is increasingly positioned for securing AI agents and MCP servers. You can self-host the open-source edition for free or use Logto Cloud, which has a free plan for a sizeable user base and an affordable Pro plan that bills by token usage rather than per user. The licence is MPL-2.0. Developers often pick it as a friendlier alternative to Keycloak or a cheaper one to Auth0, though it has a smaller ecosystem and fewer enterprise extras than the long-established players.

Best for: SaaS developers who want open-source, standards-based auth with an affordable cloud.
