Overview
Ory is an open-source identity infrastructure platform providing APIs for authentication, authorization, and permissions management, built on projects such as Ory Kratos and Ory Keto. It lets engineering teams add login, registration, multi-factor authentication, and fine-grained permission checks to applications without building identity systems from scratch. Ory offers a free developer tier plus paid Production and Growth plans billed on active users, machine-to-machine tokens, and permission checks.
The honest half
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Ory.
Cross-shopped
Each pairing was judged by two reviewers asking whether a buyer would genuinely weigh the two against each other. The ones that failed were deleted rather than published.
Logto: Logto offers a similar open-source identity platform with a self-hosted option and token-based pricing.
Auth0: Auth0 is a mature commercial identity-as-a-service alternative with comparable authentication and SSO features.

Softwr does not host reviews and shows no star rating for Ory, because a rating we did not collect is not ours to publish. What is here is the pricing and platform detail from the vendor’s own pages, limitations we could state concretely, and alternatives a reviewer confirmed people weigh against it.
