Built for developers
Easy-to-use APIs and SDKs that consider both developer and user experience for simple, yet robust API auth(z)
We put together the right infrastructure and expose it via simple yet robust abstractions, so your team doesn’t have to stitch together point solutions or spend months integrating auth and access control.
Our client-side SDKs offer flexible templates that can be completely customized to match your brand. Create seamless developer onboarding and authentication experiences in minutes.
Don’t get held up in development by hosted solutions. Akara provides a development harness that allows you to unit test your auth(z) and have visibility into successes and failures so that nothing catches you by surprise.
Frictionless admin
Manage all aspects of Akara with an intuitive web dashboard
Access a command center that provides the ability to create, import, and manage keys and define policies and scopes. Easily perform key actions like revoking a key or enabling automatic key rotation.
Akara automatically logs all API requests and key management actions, so you have insight into who’s accessing every aspect of your API. Detailed logs help you manage risk, meet compliance requirements, and conduct audits. For power users, stream log data to external services like Elasticsearch and Prometheus.
