Pricing behavior (not a price list)

These points describe when users typically pay more and what usage patterns trigger upgrades.

Actions that trigger upgrades

  • Growing MAUs and needing predictable cost controls
  • Needing enterprise SSO features for customer procurement
  • Needing SCIM provisioning and governance for larger tenants
  • Needing advanced security policies (risk, anomaly detection, MFA at scale)
  • Needing higher support/SLA as auth becomes mission-critical

What gets expensive first

  • B2B identity often expands scope: SSO + SCIM + roles + audit needs
  • Migrating users from legacy auth requires careful, staged cutovers
  • Custom flows can lead to “identity logic sprawl” without guardrails
  • Enterprise customers may require contract terms beyond the product plan
  • Monitoring and incident response are part of the identity cost

Plans and variants (structural only)

Grouped by type to show structure, not to rank or recommend SKUs.

Enterprise
  • Starter - Usage-based - Baseline customer auth with limits (see pricing page)
  • B2B - Enterprise features - SSO and tenant needs drive upgrades (see pricing page)
  • Enterprise - Contracted - Higher assurance security, support, and governance (see pricing page)

Next step: constraints + what breaks first

Pricing tells you the cost cliffs; constraints tell you what forces a redesign.
