Spec score 7.8 #18 of 27 in Passwordless Authentication Software

What it is

UNLOQ provides passwordless authentication for applications through a distributed authentication system. Users can sign in with push notifications, TOTP, email login, or biometric login. Developers can connect it through an API, code examples, a customizable login widget, or plugins, including a WordPress two-factor authentication plugin. Push requests can ask users to approve or deny defined actions such as financial transactions, document sharing, and workflow approvals. City Wall and IP Restriction controls can limit access by country, city, or IP address. Real-time analytics show login timing and location, preferred methods, and devices. Customers can customize logos, colors, and splash screens for mobile and web applications, and UNLOQ can generate iOS and Android app files. Integration is available on premise or in the cloud; custom mobile apps are limited to on-premise deployments. Platforms listed are Android, iOS, web, API, and self-hosted. The free tier covers 1–100 users at free, with unlimited authentications and authorisations. The 101–200 user tier is $19 a month.
