Logto Cloud (Preview) has launched on Product Hunt. Come and support us!
Hi there,
I’m Gao, one of the creators of Logto. I remember feeling nervous last July - that’s the date we launched the first beta version of Logto OSS.
To our surprise, we had some deep conversations with the community from the outset. We talked about the terrible developer experience of building authentication, even with existing products, and the dramatic costs of current industry leaders. As developers ourselves, we feel you and that's why we started building Logto.
These conversations drove us towards a brighter future. I want to say a big thank you to everyone we connected with during our beta! Only with your help, we can shape the future of identity development together.
Today, we're excited to announce that we've made a significant step forward with Logto: we're officially launching Logto Cloud (Preview) to the public!
I know that most of you got started with Logto through the online demo (huge credit to GitPod) or the docker-compose file. With Logto Cloud (Preview), you can even forget all the operational overheads when developing with Logto. Simply sign in and a new Logto instance will be ready for you. If you're developing locally, the only thing you need to change in your code is the Logto endpoint.
Assuming you are familiar with cloud products, here are some quick answers to frequently asked questions:
We are still finalizing our pricing model, but rest assured that we are working hard to make our product much more affordable than similar offerings currently on the market. We believe it should be more usage-based, rather than charging per seat for a customer-facing scenario.
Logto Cloud will remain free while in preview. We would love to explore the appropriate and sustainable pricing model with you. Feel free to send us an email or schedule a meeting with us.
We have a strong belief in building trust and maintaining transparency. During the preview period, all Logto data will stay in the Azure West Europe region. See our Privacy Policy for more details if you are interested.
Yes. Your tenant will seamlessly transition to Logto Cloud once the preview period ends. You can also request to have your data physically removed at any time if needed. See our Terms of Use for more details.
No! Open-source is the core of our product and we believe it always will be. We will try our best to align between OSS and Cloud, and make sure you have full confidence that Logto OSS is backing you up.
The other role today is the General Availability version of Logto OSS. After multiple rounds of beta versions and release candidates, we are happy to announce the first release version of Logto OSS. Let’s quickly go through the major updates since last July:
We received valuable feedback from our community and have incorporated it into our recent priorities:
If you notice anything missing, please do not hesitate to reach out to us by sending an email or joining our Discord server.
We could not have made it this far without the support of our community. Although this is a meaningful milestone for Logto, we believe our journey is just beginning.
Building an identity product is a serious task, so leave the headache to us. We hope you enjoy using Logto, and let's meet on the cloud!
