Platform Teams
Stop maintaining authorization code and start shipping platform features.
Authorization infrastructure your whole platform can build on
Replace homegrown permission systems with infrastructure that scales, isolates tenants, and lets your customers manage their own access.
Replace legacy authorization
Your team built authorization in-house years ago. It worked then. Now you're hitting limits: performance problems at scale, features that take weeks to ship, bugs that expose data. Migrate gradually to infrastructure that just works.
Scale without architectural limits
Add tenants, teams, and users without degrading performance. Leading platforms have migrated to SpiceDB after their homegrown systems hit permission scaling limits. The architecture scales linearly whether you have 100 tenants or 100,000.
Tenant isolation
Guarantee boundaries at the authorization layer independent of how data is stored. Users cannot access resources outside their tenant, but cross-tenant collaboration works when needed.
Delegated administration
Let customers manage their own users and permissions with custom roles and administrative hierarchies, without embedding customer-specific logic in your application.
"We decided to buy instead of build early on. This is an authorization system with established patterns. We didn't want to reinvent the wheel when we could move fast with a proven solution."
— Member of Technical Staff, OpenAI
Ship platform features, not authorization infrastructure
Authorization is complex: relationship graphs, consistency guarantees, caching strategies. But it's not your competitive advantage. Delegate to specialists so your team can build what differentiates your platform.
Migrate gradually, with confidence
Run both systems in parallel and compare results. AuthZed's consistency guarantees mean you can trust the answers, and discrepancies usually reveal bugs in the old system. Shift reads over as confidence grows, then retire the legacy code.
One schema, every permission model
Express folder inheritance, sharing semantics, collaboration rules, or your custom permission model in a single declarative schema. Add new capabilities by updating the schema. No code changes, no re-architecture, no per-customer logic scattered through your codebase.
Performance stops being a concern
No more performance tuning, query optimization, or caching workarounds. No more on-call for authorization infrastructure. Engineers build platform features instead of maintaining permission systems.
Built for the platforms you run
Developer Tools and Platforms
Secure access to code repositories, secrets, deployments, and infrastructure with fine-grained controls. Supports the complex permission requirements of platform engineering teams building internal developer platforms.
AI Infrastructure and Platforms
Build multi-tenant services with data isolation guarantees. Multiple customers and use cases run on shared infrastructure without compromising security boundaries.
B2B SaaS Platforms
Support the enterprise-grade permissions your largest customers expect, including custom roles, SSO integration, and audit logging, without months of custom development.
Data Platforms and Analytics
Enforce row-level and column-level permissions across data warehouses and analytics platforms. Users query exactly the data they should see, with performance that doesn't degrade as permission complexity grows.
