The problem it solves

You want to offer a self-service tool or automated process to your team or customers, but you can't let just anyone with the link run it. Building a proper login check yourself means extra development work you don't have time for.

Who it fits

Businesses that want to expose an internal tool or automated process to employees or clients securely.

How it works

  1. Someone tries to access the automated process without being logged in
  2. It redirects them to your company's identity provider to sign in
  3. Once they log in, it verifies their identity token
  4. It looks up their name, email, and account details
  5. The automated process runs using their verified identity
What you get

Internal tools opened only to verified employees

You get your internal tools protected automatically, letting employees in only after they sign in through your company identity system.

What you get

A secure gate that only lets logged-in, verified users run the process, with their identity attached to the result.

What you need

An identity provider such as Keycloak or a similar single sign-on system.

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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
