Launch of the Week
Knock, a notification API, released CLI 1.0 with personal logins, resource creation, JSON schemas, and support for its existing branching beta. Keeping notification changes in developers’ normal workflow could help it win evaluations against Novu and Courier, particularly when several teams share one messaging system.
Company Launch
Numgate, a phone-number validation API, made its public introduction on January 4 to help developers flag suspicious numbers during signup. Its API combines number formatting, line-type detection and heuristic confidence scoring, giving teams evaluating Twilio Lookup another option for screening numbers before sending an OTP.
Enterprise Watch
WorkOS, an enterprise authentication platform, added organization selection to Connect authorization, allowing an application to read the selected organization from the resulting access token. Making tenant context explicit could reduce integration ambiguity for B2B products comparing WorkOS with Auth0 or Clerk.
More Devtool News
- ✨ WorkOS, an enterprise authentication platform, launched automatic email synchronization from social login providers. Changes at the connected provider now update the WorkOS user record. This could reduce stale account data, although applications still need to handle email changes in their own records. AuthKit competes with Clerk and Auth0.
