authentik

MIT-core self-hosted IdP; enterprise/ is not MIT

Auth / Auth · OSS/MIT · 25.3k

What's Good

MIT outside enterprise/. OIDC, SAML, LDAP, RADIUS, proxy. OSS self-host is Free. Docker Compose or Kubernetes. Flows you can actually read.

The Catch

enterprise/ is not MIT — EE license, paid seats. No hosted hatch: goauthentik.io/pricing says they do not currently provide a hosted version. You run Postgres and the stack.

Verdict

MIT-core IdP. Self-host is the free path; there is no authentik Cloud.
