Hey HN, I wanted to share a project that a small team and I have been quietly working on for the past two years.

It's called Eartho, and it's aimed at improving the access infrastructure of the digital world, with a focus on benefiting developers and users alike.

For developers, we offer a free infrastructure to manage authentication, authorization, and payments, all seamlessly integrated.

For users, Eartho provides a service that enhances their internet experience by offering upgraded privacy and convenience. Imagine having one profile to access all websites, manage payments & data in one place, and more.

Current challenges in access management that Eartho solves:

High Costs: Services like Auth0 can be expensive, ranging from $400 to $10,000 per month, which is often prohibitive for small businesses.

Fragmented Systems: Managing separate infrastructures for login, verification, and payments requires extensive integration time, typically lasting 1-2 months.

Tech Talk Trap: The multitude of acronyms (SSO, MFA, MULTITENANT, JWT) associated with access management can make the process feel complex and intimidating.

User Inconvenience: Users often face the inconvenience of repeatedly entering personal data and lack control over their personal and payment information.

Privacy Issues: Data is collected by big tech companies and dispersed across various services, raising concerns about privacy and data security.

If you're a developer or a company owner, consider including us in your next infrastructure comparison before starting development. You might discover that we offer the simplest and free solution.
