Appwrite Full-Stack MVP Stack
For builders who want backend primitives without stitching together five services. Auth, database, storage, and functions come from Appwrite while the frontend stays in a normal Next.js app.
Add enterprise SSO, SCIM provisioning, and audit logs to your SaaS product without building it in-house. The identity features enterprise procurement teams require before signing a purchase order.
Workflow stack
The order matters. Start at the top, read down the sequence, and open any step when you want the note behind it.
Enterprise identity
SSO with SAML 2.0 and OIDC, automated SCIM user provisioning from corporate directories, MFA enforcement, and SOC 2 compliance documentation that enterprise security teams actually accept.

Application-level user data, permission records, and audit logs stored in Postgres — Auth0 handles identity, your database handles everything the business logic needs.
Open tool profileEnterprise billing
Invoice-based billing for annual contracts, custom pricing per account, and usage-based add-ons — the billing portal handles self-serve tier upgrades between contract renewals.
