Stop paying per user! Clav.run is the self-hosted identity server that puts you in control. Deploy in 1-2-3 minutes on any VPS or cloud, scale infinitely, and authenticate users with any method - passwords, biometrics, WebAuthn, MFA, or passwordless. Works in low-bandwidth zones, supports multiple accounts, and costs zero per user. 🚀

Built on the OpenID Certified™ node-oidc-provider library, delivering full OAuth 2.0 (RFC 6749) and OIDC compliance with advanced standards support.

⚠️ Note: While using the certified library, Clav.run itself has not undergone OpenID Foundation certification.
