Descope

EmergingDeveloper Tools

No-Code Authentication Flows

Descope provides a no-code authentication flow builder combined with authentication SDKs, enabling product teams and developers to collaborate on login experiences.

About

Descope is an authentication and user management platform founded in 2022 by former Palo Alto Networks executives, raising $53M in seed funding. The company differentiates from developer-only auth tools by providing a visual flow builder that allows product managers and designers to create and modify authentication flows without engineering changes, alongside developer SDKs for full code-level control. This enables faster iteration on login experiences since non-technical team members can run A/B tests on onboarding flows, add new auth methods, or modify password requirements without deploying code. Descope supports magic links, passwords, biometrics, social login, SAML SSO, TOTP, and passkeys. The platform includes user management, session management, and risk-based authentication that adapts security requirements based on contextual signals. Descope serves SaaS companies across B2C and B2B segments that want to move faster on authentication improvements without consuming engineering capacity, and competes with Auth0, Cognito, and Firebase Authentication in the managed authentication service market.
