Hey Product Hunt, You may have used passkeys to sign in to your Google, GitHub, or even TikTok accounts. If not, you should definitely try it. Website and app developers are embracing passkeys as a password alternative to improve the user experience and strengthen their application's security. Unlike passwords, passkeys are automatically created and stored on your devices, conveniently secured by your device unlock mechanisms like Touch ID, Face ID, or a PIN, and never shared with a server. Having worked with passkeys and its underlying protocols for many years when building our open source auth solution Hanko, we've put our learnings into this API and SDK to make your passkey integration as simple as possible. Passkey API is FIDO2-certified, ensuring full compatibility with browsers, operating systems, and hardware security keys. Here's what Passkey API can do for you: - Plug-in passkey solution by the passkey experts - Supports both passkeys and hardware security keys like a Yubikey for WebAuthn 2FA - Framework-agnostic - Javascript frontend SDK - Next-Auth passkey provider - Open source - Up to 10,000 users for free on Hanko Cloud If you've built your own auth system and want to bring it up to today's standards to benefit from better user conversion rates, happier users, and improved security for you app, get started with passkeys today.

@flxmgdnz great stuff! was unclear about the pricing with regards to this but really useful api . More thoughts
Felix Magedanz
@frank_denbow Wow thank you Frank, that's awesome. We should add more info on self-hosted vs. Hanko Cloud options to the landing page.

I’ve been using Hanko for Passkeys for 6 months now and it’s been super easy to integrate and the team is hyper responsive. The passkeys API is a game changer.
Felix Magedanz
@mfts0 Thank you for your trust and the awesome collaboration, Marc. Having Papermark as an early adopter of the Passkey API has greatly helped us shape the SDK πŸ™

Passkeys take the hassle out of logging in and make it more secure. Hanko offers a smooth user experience. Easy to implement and the team is helpful.

how do passkeys do vs oauth? Email/password login? What benefits are there for business owners? Is there anything beyond compliance?
Felix Magedanz
@geoff_langenderfer unlike OAuth, passkeys do not involve a 3rd party. Users create their passkeys for each app individually, much like a password in that sense, which can have privacy and security benefits. Studies at Google and other early passkey adopters showed that passkeys increase conversion rates (no need to create a password) and also the speed and probability of successful logins for existing users drastically. That is in line with what our customers are telling us :)

Hey Felix, Passkeys sound like a game-changer for both user experience and security. The integration options you provide seem super versatile. How easy is it to migrate from an existing auth system to using Passkeys by Hanko?
Felix Magedanz
@alex_dulub Hello Alex, our Passkey API is best used in combination with an existing auth system. I would not recommend replacing your system, but rather extend it with passkeys. You keep everything you have in place and add passkey support. After a while, you can, for example, allow users to delete their passwords if they have a passkey.
Herklos
Great idea, do you think it could be integrated with https://www.producthunt.com/prod... auth?
Felix Magedanz
@herklos thanks! Yes, integration with Supabase auth is no problem. We're actually working on a guide right now.
Kyrylo Silin
Congrats on the launch! How does the process of self-hosting compare to using Hanko Cloud's hosted Passkey API in terms of setup and maintenance?
Felix Magedanz
@kyrylosilin Thanks! The easiest way to self-host Passkey API is by using the package we provide on GitHub (ghcr).
Awesome OSS product! keep going!
