Stytch review

Stytch is an identity platform for adding authentication, authorization, and security to apps used by people and AI agents. Its product covers consumer and enterprise login, organization-level identity management, and controls for agent access.

For authentication, the listed options include passkeys, breach-resistant passwords, SAML SSO, and OIDC SSO. For multi-tenant apps, Stytch supports per-organization authentication settings, IdP-driven role mapping, and SCIM. Enterprise customers can use an admin portal to manage authentication settings, SSO, SCIM, and organizations.

The platform also offers bot detection, invisible CAPTCHA, device intelligence, and intelligent rate limiting. Developers can integrate through pre-built frontend components, headless SDKs, or backend APIs. Stytch’s homepage also highlights authentication, authorization, and consent management for AI agents. That makes it a broad identity toolkit, rather than just a login widget.

The clearest draw is the combination of consumer and enterprise identity features. Passkeys and password authentication sit alongside SSO, SCIM, organization management, and role mapping, so teams can cover common login needs and enterprise requirements in one platform. The admin portal is a practical addition for customers that need to manage organization settings without routing every change through the app team.

The pricing page lists a $0-per-month Pay as you go plan for B2B and consumer apps. It includes 10,000 monthly active users and AI agents, unlimited organizations, five SSO or SCIM connections, 1,000 M2M tokens, and 10,000 fingerprints. That is a substantial starting allowance for a product that needs both organization support and fraud controls.

Stytch also offers several integration styles: pre-built frontend components, headless SDKs, and backend APIs. The pricing page lists Enterprise support with a 99.99% uptime SLA, a private support Slack channel, migration support, and HIPAA/BAA. Enterprise pricing is custom, so those benefits need a sales conversation.

The free entry tier has clear caps: 10,000 monthly active users and AI agents, five SSO or SCIM connections, 1,000 M2M tokens, and 10,000 included fingerprints. The pricing page lists additional SSO or SCIM connections at $125 each and additional fingerprints at $0.005 each. Custom branding and login experience costs a fixed $99. Rates for additional active users and M2M tokens are not published, and fraud and risk tools are add-ons with unlisted prices. Enterprise pricing is also custom, with no annual billing listed.

There is a product-fit question for apps that blend consumer and business accounts. In one Reddit thread, a commenter said Stytch’s separate B2C and B2B SDKs made that setup confusing, and that adding team features later could mean migrating auth flows. That is one user’s report, not a universal limitation, but it is worth checking before committing if users may move from personal accounts into organizations. Ask Stytch to map that path—and the costs at your expected usage—before switching.

Stytch’s Pay as you go plan costs $0 per month, according to the pricing page checked on November 6, 2026. It includes 10,000 monthly active users and AI agents, unlimited organizations, five SSO or SCIM connections, 1,000 M2M tokens, and 10,000 fingerprints. The page does not publish rates for usage above the included MAUs or M2M tokens.

There is no public price for the Enterprise tier: Stytch lists custom pricing, discounted rates, a 99.99% uptime SLA, a private support Slack channel, migration support, and HIPAA/BAA. So the step up from free is a quote, not a published plan price.

Watch the add-ons: custom branding and login experience is $99 fixed; each additional SSO or SCIM connection is $125. Extra fingerprints cost $0.005 each after the included 10,000. Fraud and risk tools are add-ons, but their prices are not listed. The page shows monthly pricing and does not list annual billing.

A move to Stytch could mean more than swapping login screens. Its feature set includes authentication components, headless SDKs, backend APIs, organization settings, role mapping, and SCIM. Teams adopting those capabilities should map their existing identity flows, organization and role model, and provisioning before estimating migration work. That is a planning consideration, not a published migration estimate.

The published material does not say what identity data or credentials can be exported, or detail a self-serve export process. It also does not include Reddit reports, so we can’t substantiate why customers leave or how difficult they found a migration. Stytch does list migration support for Enterprise, but gives no public scope or price for it.

Before switching in either direction, ask for a written export and cutover plan, including how users, organizations, SSO connections, and agent identities are handled. Confirm costs for usage and add-ons too: extra MAU and M2M token rates are not published, and Enterprise pricing is custom.
