SoftwareDeveloper APIs that make your app enterprise-ready fast — SSO, directory sync, and the features big customers require.

About WorkOS
WorkOS provides developer-friendly APIs that make applications enterprise-ready quickly, handling the complex features that large business customers require — like single sign-on, directory sync, and audit logs — without months of custom development. When a software company starts selling to enterprises, those customers demand capabilities such as SSO integration with their identity provider, automated user provisioning, and security features that are difficult and time-consuming to build correctly. WorkOS packages these into clean APIs, so a startup can become enterprise-ready in days rather than diverting engineering for months.
The platform offers the key building blocks of enterprise readiness: single sign-on that integrates with the many identity providers enterprises use, directory sync (SCIM) for automatically provisioning and deprovisioning users, audit logs, and other features that enterprise IT and security teams expect. These are notoriously complex to implement well, with countless edge cases across different providers, and WorkOS handles that complexity behind simple, well-documented APIs. This lets product teams add the features that unlock enterprise deals without building and maintaining the intricate integrations themselves, accelerating their move upmarket.
WorkOS is used by software companies — especially B2B SaaS startups and scale-ups — that want to sell to enterprise customers and need to add the security and identity features those customers require. The value is becoming enterprise-ready fast: instead of spending months building SSO, directory sync, and related features, teams add them through WorkOS's APIs in a fraction of the time, unlocking larger deals sooner. Because enterprise requirements can be a major barrier to moving upmarket, removing that barrier has real business impact. For SaaS companies aiming to land enterprise customers, WorkOS offers a focused, developer-friendly way to add exactly the features those customers demand.
