6 free alternatives to SuperTokens

Auth0's free plan includes up to 25,000 monthly active users, passwordless auth, unlimited social connections subject to system limits, 5 organizations, 1 enterprise connection, self-service SSO, SCIM, brand customization, basic attack protection, and community support. For teams that want a hosted identity service, the big advantage is headroom: its free user ceiling is much higher than SuperTokens' 5,000 MAU cloud cap. It does fall short on the same open-source and self-hosting flexibility SuperTokens offers. Switch if your app is outgrowing a small cloud allowance and you want a managed plan with a larger free runway.

• Beats SuperTokens: 25,000 MAU free versus SuperTokens' 5,000 MAU cloud cap
• Falls short: No open-source self-hosting path like SuperTokens
• Who should switch: Switch if you want more free cloud MAUs and can live with a closed hosted platform.

Logto's free plan gives up to 50,000 monthly active users, 50,000 tokens per month, 3 total applications, 1 machine-to-machine app, 3 social connectors, 1 custom domain, 1 webhook, audit logs retained for 3 days, and 1 tenant member for console access. That makes it useful for teams that need a hosted auth and authorization stack with some operational room before paying. It falls short of SuperTokens on the breadth of login methods and the self-hosted no-cap story. Choose Logto if your main problem is a small managed free tier and you need more quota in the same general product class.

• Beats SuperTokens: 50,000 MAU and 50,000 tokens per month
• Falls short: Less breadth in the free login and auth feature set than SuperTokens
• Who should switch: Switch if you need more free usage on a hosted auth platform with modest app and connector limits.

MojoAuth's free plan includes 25,000 MAUs, unlimited total users, email OTP, magic link, Facebook and Google login, basic attack protection, and hosted login and registration pages. It is a straightforward fit for passwordless-first apps that want hosted flows without a card up front. Compared with SuperTokens, it gives more free MAU room, but it does not match the same level of broad authentication coverage, RBAC, session management, dashboard tooling, or self-hosting flexibility. It is a better fit when you want a simple passwordless service rather than a wider identity platform.

• Beats SuperTokens: 25,000 MAU with unlimited total users
• Falls short: Less complete auth and account-management coverage than SuperTokens
• Who should switch: Switch if passwordless login is your main use case and you want a bigger free user allowance.

Hexclave's free plan includes up to 10,000 auth users, 1 dashboard admin, 1,000 emails per month, and email, OAuth, and magic links, plus community support. It is aimed at solo builders and small side projects that need a simple hosted setup with modest volume. It beats SuperTokens on having a slightly higher free user ceiling for auth users, but it falls short on the breadth of authentication methods, RBAC, session management, and other identity controls in SuperTokens' free tier. Pick Hexclave if your app is small, email-heavy, and you only need the basics.

• Beats SuperTokens: Up to 10,000 auth users
• Falls short: Less complete identity feature coverage than SuperTokens
• Who should switch: Switch if you only need a small hosted auth stack with email, OAuth, and magic links.

For product teams, the main advantage is much larger free user capacity and broader app support. It loses to SuperTokens on self-hosting flexibility. Switch if you want a polished hosted identity layer with lots of free UI and management features.

• Beats SuperTokens: 50,000 retained users per app plus unlimited applications
• Falls short: No self-hosted free cloud equivalent like SuperTokens

WorkOS gives up to 1 million monthly active users for WorkOS User Management, first 1,000 Radar checks per month, and free staging access to all products for testing integrations. It is the biggest free runway in this list, especially if your immediate problem is scale rather than feature breadth. It falls short of SuperTokens for builders who want a broad auth platform with self-hosting and a free production cloud tier that is easy to keep using at small scale. WorkOS is best when you are comfortable with its product split and want room to grow before paying.

• Beats SuperTokens: Up to 1 million monthly active users
• Falls short: Less like an all-in-one self-hosted auth stack than SuperTokens
• Who should switch: Switch if your top priority is the most free headroom for user management and staged integration testing.
