| description.long | An open-source and cloud-based identity platform offering authentication, authorization, and access control for applications and AI agents. Available as self-hosted open-source software, a managed cloud service, or an enterprise license with dedicated support. | TrueCaaS is a multi-tenant identity and authorization control plane for SaaS applications, enterprise applications, APIs, and AI agents. It provides authentication, enterprise federation, application-level roles and privileges, runtime authorization and entitlement decisions, machine and agent identities, governance, and audit trails through a centralized platform.

TrueCaaS complements existing identity providers such as Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, and enterprise directories rather than requiring organizations to replace them. Applications can authenticate users through TrueCaaS and make real-time authorization decisions based on the tenant, application, identity, requested action, privileges, and surrounding context.

Built around a Tenant → Environment → Application architecture, TrueCaaS is designed for organizations building multi-tenant SaaS platforms, customer and partner applications, enterprise applications, APIs, and agentic systems that need consistent identity and authorization without rebuilding those capabilities inside every application. |
