This looks great! I am curious about "We expect to monetize in the future by building extra features that serve large companies with complex needs".

During the YC application process, was this enough to be accepted? I wonder how much emphasis they put in the business model in order to fund you. I wish you success!

Candidly, we were working on other projects when accepted to YC. We wanted to build data cleaning software with LLMs, before we realized no one really cared about messy data.

Part of the reason we're comfortable with a generous free offering is the basic truth that helping SaaS companies support SAML logins ... just isn't an enormous market. We need to make money on other products anyway.

*Monetizing extra features* pertains to the SAML product that we offer now, but we'll also roll out other products.

The long-term ambition here is that we build a company resembling Auth0, but open source and more developer-friendly.

I have been working on this for a few years at github.com/authgear, and last few weeks were busy rolling out SAML support for a few Enterprise customers want it by Sep…

Magically feels connected here :)
