Overview
MojoAuth is a developer-first CIAM service built around passwordless authentication: passkeys, magic links, email and SMS one-time passcodes, and social login, with SSO included in its plans. Founded in 2023, it positions itself as a fast, privacy-conscious way to add modern login to an app without standing up an in-house identity stack. It is an emerging vendor rather than an established platform, so it competes on simplicity, price, and time-to-integration rather than breadth.
MojoAuth also acts as an identity provider: applications connect over OpenID Connect (OAuth 2.0) or SAML 2.0, so one MojoAuth project can serve as the login and federation layer for multiple modern web, mobile, and enterprise SaaS apps from a single branded hosted domain. That makes it a passwordless-first option for both consumer login and B2B application SSO.
What it is good at
Passwordless is the core strength. Passkey and WebAuthn support is first-class, the drop-in flows and SDKs get a working login running quickly, and the documentation is aimed squarely at developers. It doubles as an OIDC and SAML identity provider, so a team can federate several applications, including enterprise SaaS SSO, to one MojoAuth login without running a separate IdP. Pricing is transparent and low, with SSO bundled rather than gated behind an enterprise tier, which matters for small teams that need SAML for an early enterprise deal. The privacy-conscious, minimal-data-retention stance appeals to teams that would rather not warehouse credentials.
Where it falls short
As a young vendor, the enterprise depth is still building. Governance, audit, and lifecycle provisioning are lighter than what dedicated workforce or IGA tooling offers, and the reference base and ecosystem are small compared with the category leaders. Authorization is basic. Teams with complex B2B multi-tenancy or strict compliance review processes will find the track record thin, and the support ecosystem is correspondingly limited.
Pricing
Transparent published pricing with a free tier and low-cost paid plans, and SSO included rather than upsold. Model your real volume against per-MAU competitors with the TCO calculator, where MojoAuth often wins on cost for small to mid projects.
Best for, and who should look elsewhere
Choose MojoAuth when passwordless and passkeys are the priority, the team is small to mid-size, and price and speed matter more than enterprise governance. For deeper passwordless plus enterprise readiness, compare Stytch and Descope; for B2B SSO as a standalone layer, see WorkOS and SSOJet.
Bottom line
A clean, low-cost, passwordless-first CIAM for startups and developers. Strong on passkeys and price, still early on enterprise governance and references.
