Descope — Free Plan for Startups

Deal Highlights

Descope — Drag-and-Drop Authentication in Minutes

Descope is an authentication and user management platform that lets you build complete auth flows visually. Drag and drop login screens, MFA steps, SSO providers, and user onboarding into a visual workflow — no auth code to write.

Authentication Without the Pain

Building authentication from scratch takes weeks — password hashing, session management, MFA, social login, magic links, and security headers. Auth libraries help but still require significant code. Descope eliminates auth code entirely with visual flow builder.

Visual Flow Builder

Drag-and-drop authentication flows. Start with a social login button, add MFA for sensitive actions, route enterprise users to SSO, and customize the entire journey visually. Changes deploy instantly without code pushes.

Passkey Support

Descope is one of the first platforms to support passkeys natively. Biometric login (Face ID, fingerprint, Windows Hello) replaces passwords entirely — more secure and more user-friendly.

Descope vs Auth0

Auth0 is the established standard with the broadest integration ecosystem. Descope is newer with a better visual builder and more generous free tier. Auth0 has more documentation and community resources. Descope has a faster setup experience.

Descope vs Clerk

Clerk provides beautiful pre-built UI components. Descope provides a visual flow builder for custom auth journeys. Clerk is easier for standard auth. Descope is more flexible for complex flows.
