Generate two-factor login codes automatically for your tools

Automatically generates the six-digit two-factor code your other automations need to log in securely.

How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

Some of your other automated tools need a live two-factor code to log in, but generating that code usually means grabbing your phone and typing it in by hand. That manual step breaks any process you're trying to run unattended.

Who it fits

Teams running automated logins to services that require two-factor authentication.

How it works

  1. The system runs on demand or on a schedule
  2. It reads your saved two-factor secret key
  3. It calculates the current six-digit code
  4. It returns the code along with how many seconds it's valid for
What you get

Login codes ready the instant your tools need them

Your other automations always have a fresh six-digit login code ready the moment they need to sign in somewhere.

What you get

A valid, up-to-date two-factor authentication code ready for another system to use.

What you need

A saved two-factor authentication secret key for the service you're logging into.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
