HYPR Authenticate vs WorkOS

HYPR Authenticate provides passwordless, phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication using passkeys. It turns a smartphone into a FIDO2 credential based on public-key cryptography, eliminating passwords and shared secrets. Users pair phones with computers by scanning a QR code, then approve access with biometrics or a decentralized PIN. Authentication covers desktops, virtual desktop infrastructure, web apps, single sign-on, VPN and RDP; an offline mode supports workstation access without internet connectivity. Multiple phones and computers can be paired, and Remote Lock lets users lock a workstation from a smartphone. Organizations can apply their own branding and connect identity providers such as Entra ID, Okta and Ping, as well as RADIUS infrastructure and SIEM platforms. The service supports iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux and web. Plans include Identity Assurance Access at $3 a month, Identity Assurance Plus at $6 a month and Identity Assurance Advanced at $9 a month, all billed monthly. A free plan, free trial and free pilot for up to 50 users are listed.

WorkOS provides APIs and hosted components for SaaS companies adding enterprise capabilities to applications. Its User Management supports SAML and OIDC identity providers, social authentication, and passwordless email codes. Directory Sync handles SCIM provisioning and HRIS integrations for user lifecycle management. Customer IT administrators can configure identity providers and directories in a hosted Admin Portal with custom branding and a custom domain. Developers get REST APIs, JSON responses, webhooks, and SDKs for Node.js, Ruby, Python, .NET, Go, PHP, and Java. AuthKit includes email and password, magic-code sign-in, MFA, passkeys, organization policies, JIT provisioning, RBAC, and CLI authentication. WorkOS lists API, iOS, and web platforms, plus integrations such as Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Slack, and Stripe. Pricing is freemium: free plans exist, while paid products start at $99/mo for Custom Domain and $125/mo for SSO or Directory Sync.
