Not sure how many times you have done it, but it's time to build the login.
@hanko.io provides a great way to implement login out of the box, and trust me. It's better than auth0.

Is authentication draining your startup’s budget?

Startups often face a tough choice when it comes to authentication and user management.

Cut authentication costs, fuel your growth

Startups can't afford to waste money on expensive SaaS solutions, especially for something like authentication. Hanko offers a cost-effective, scalable solution that grows with you. It's simple to integrate, and switching is easy, so you can reduce costs and focus on what really matters — scaling your business.

Affordable, scalable, secure authentication

Startups often sacrifice security and scalability for low-cost tools — but not with Hanko. It’s affordable without compromising on security. With features like Passkeys, 2FA, and email verification, you can customize your setup to fit your needs and scale effortlessly as your business expands.

Focus on growth, not authentication

Building authentication from scratch is time-consuming and risky. Startups often underestimate the complexity of creating a secure, reliable system. With Hanko, you can skip the hassle and integrate a secure, scalable solution in no time — giving you more room to focus on growing your product.

The result? You spend more time worrying about your infrastructure than growing your business.

Graphic wich shows that a startup with 1 million Monthly active users would pay $29 with Hanko as provider and $20k with other providers.
