Its integration directory covers services such as GitHub, Google Workspace, and HubSpot, and protocols including SAML, SCIM, OAuth 2.0, and webhooks. Ory lists a free Developer tier, Production at $770 a year, and Growth at $9,350 a year. Production includes one production, three staging, and five development environments; Growth includes two production, five staging, and 20 development environments. B2B authentication is limited to Growth and Enterprise. Ory also lists customer SSO, social login, passkeys, customer profiles, directory sync, lifecycle provisioning, and adaptive access policies.

Trusona ATO Protect verifies identity in real time during password or MFA resets, account recovery, and other high-risk requests, with the stated aim of preventing account takeovers. It checks people against authoritative sources including DMV records, mobile network operators, and LexisNexis, and detects SIM swaps, man-in-the-middle activity, and replayed ID scans. Trusona says document checks cover more than 2,500 ID types worldwide. People can use the service without downloading an app or registering in advance, and a zero-integration option is listed. Employees and customers can check that an agent is genuine, while executives can verify each other before wire transfers. After a successful check, a person can save a TruPass(key) to skip ID scans later. Listed integrations include ServiceNow and APIs, with options for Zendesk, Jira, Ivanti, and Freshdesk tickets. Trusona says it stores no PII and shows agents a risk result rather than identity documents. The portal plan is free with no commitment; other pricing is available on request.
