AuthSec vs Scalekit: The Architecture Shift
Stop bolting on enterprise identity. Scalekit treats single-sign-on as a retro-fitted layer. AuthSec makes identity, authorization, SSO, and SCIM one unified, configurable system.
One Identity default
Auth, SSO, SCIM, MFA, and RBAC ship pre-integrated. Every new feature arrives pre-configured. No extra plug-ins, no surprise bills.
SSO + SCIM included
Enterprise readiness is included by default — no per-connection pricing, no locked connections, no separate SCIM products to bolt on.
Predictable Pricing
Transparent flat-fee tiers based on monthly active users. No hidden surcharges for basic security features.
Architecture-level detail
Deep Technical Comparison
Side-by-side view of two fundamentally different approaches to enterprise identity.
Scalekit Approach
The User-First Patch
Bolt-on user login that adds SSO, OAuth, and enterprise connectivity after the app is already built. Fits traditional SaaS fast.
- ✕Social & email login
- ✕SSO priced per-connection
- ✕Separate SCIM product
AuthSec Approach
The Chip-First Core
Authentication, authorization, and identity are architected into the core. Every stack starts with a pre-wired identity chip.
- ✓Identity wired at the foundation
- ✓Unlimited SSO out of the box
- ✓SCIM, MFA, RBAC pre-integrated
Scalekit SSO
Fragmented SSOs
Different libraries for SAML, OIDC, and SCIM. Integration surface grows with each protocol to support.
- ✕Separate admin portals per protocol
- ✕Per-connection pricing model
AuthSec SSO
Unified OIDC/API
One API, one admin portal — Federate SAML, OIDC, and SCIM from a single control plane.
- ✓One integration surface
- ✓Connection-unlimited admin UI
- ✓Auto-generated SCIM endpoints
Where Scalekit breaks at scale
Scalekit works well for early-stage SaaS, but as your customer base grows, its modular billing and separate products create compounding complexity. AuthSec stays flat and unified.
Entity Mapping Hell
Need flexible SCIM attribute mapping? With Scalekit, every new mapping requires manual config per connection.
SSO Connection Ceiling
Scalekit prices SSO per connection. At 50+ enterprise customers, the bill compounds faster than your ARR.
RBAC Bolt-on Friction
Authorization is a separate concern in Scalekit's stack. You have to wire permissions outside the identity layer.
Enterprise readiness, day one.
All the features you'd typically upgrade for are included from the start.
Enterprise SSO
Unlimited SAML & OIDC connections with zero per-connection pricing.
SOC2 & ISO Ready
Compliance-grade audit logs, encryption at rest, and data residency controls.
MFA & RBAC
Multi-factor auth and role-based access control ship in the free tier.
SIEM & Audit
Stream events to your SIEM. 30-day built-in retention on all tiers.
Linear Pricing vs. The Enterprise Tax.
Scalekit's pricing introduces hidden surcharges once you scale past "Starter" limits — SSO connections, SCIM syncs, and audit features are all up-charges. AuthSec uses predictable flat-fee tiers with all enterprise tooling included from day one.
80%
Lower total cost of ownership vs. equivalent Scalekit stack at 50+ enterprise customers
0$
Per-connection fees. SSO, SCIM, and MFA are free on every plan — forever.
Stop stitching identity together.
Switch to an architecture that ships enterprise identity as a single, flat-price building block — not 10 products.
