Full-featured and modular, build auth your way

Scalekit is full-stack when you need it, modular when you want it —  
built the way B2B devs expect auth to work

SSO

Win bigger deals faster: Enable SSO instantly with enterprise IdP integrations and a branded admin portal.

Passwordless

Want magic links, OTP, or passkeys? Just add them.Your sessions and UI stay as they are, no refactoring

MCP Auth

Drop-in OAuth layer: secure, spec-compliant, and built for agentic access. Your user auth layer stays exactly as it is.

API Auth

Replace insecure API keys with scoped, short-lived OAuth for org- and user-level M2M access

Plug-and-play B2B. Built into the platform, not bolted on

Designed for B2B from the ground up: orgs, roles, workflows, and edge cases are handled natively, not through custom flows

Descope is not built around orgs

Organization-first by design: Scalekit is built around orgs, while Descope is user-first

Native multi-org support: Scalekit includes roles and orgs natively; Descope depends on custom flows

Hierarchies included: Departments and permissions come built-in; Descope requires configuration

Descope requires custom flows

Prebuilt routing and SSO: Scalekit includes domain routing; Descope must be configured

Integrated org logic: Scalekit automates org switching and access; Descope relies on flows

Ready-made workflows: B2B auth flows work instantly with Scalekit, not with Descope

Descope is broad but inflexible

Purpose-built for B2B: Scalekit focuses on B2B; Descope splits between B2B and B2C

Unified visibility and control: Scalekit reduces friction and improves workflow visibility

Faster and modular: Developers ship faster using only the Scalekit modules they need
