Auth
Verify once. Trust the device. Reduce friction forever
Create persistent trust sessions that recognize returning users. Cut re-verification costs and keep your UX smooth.
Your auth stack has blind spots
Sessions live in isolation
Your user verifies their phone number, confirms a device, passes fraud checks. Then they log in and the session knows none of it.
Fraud detection happens too late
Risk scoring is a separate layer, blind to what happened during onboarding and phone verification.
AI blind spots
Legacy auth assumed every session belongs to a human. It has no answer for agents, bots, and synthetic accounts growing in traffic share.




The Prelude Way
One platform.
Shared Verification signals
Granular
Security that starts before authentication
Phone verification signals do not stop at OTP. Device ID, IP address, network fingerprint, and fraud score flow directly into every authentication decision, step-up trigger, and session trust score that follows.
Bot and agent detection
Network fingerprinting at the edge identifies clients before they hit the auth flow, whether that client is a browser, a mobile app, or an AI agent. Device ID correlation stops synthetic accounts and automated attacks without blocking real users.
Network fingerprinting
Device ID

RFC 9449 DPoP
Proof of possession tokens bound to the client's key pair. Token reuse triggers automatic revocation across all user sessions. Enforced at the protocol level with no config required.
RFC 9449
Auto-revocation

OAuth flows protected by PKCE
Every social login uses PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange). The SDK generates a unique code verifier and challenge pair per attempt. A stolen token is useless without the verifier, which never leaves the browser. Replay attacks and CSRF are blocked at the protocol level.

Extra secure critical actions
Step Up security based on your logic
For critical actions like payments, password changes, and data exports, Auth calls a webhook on your backend. You receive full context. You decide.
Use all these step types. Mix and match freely.

No redudant friction. Better User experience
If a user verified via OTP to log in, they should not need to verify again to change their password. Auth tracks verification state per session and carries it forward into downstream actions.
Why teams switch to Prelude Auth API
Direct OTP cost savings
Fewer verifications means lower SMS spend. Trusted returning devices never trigger an OTP.
Higher quality user base
We’ve partnered with industry leaders like GSMA to ensure our open-source intelligence database remains one of the most comprehensive on the market.
Single platform
Our SDKs for iOS, Android and React Native let you implement secure, instant verification without compromising the user experience
Custom logics
As a SOC 2 Type II compliant provider, we adhere to the highest standards of data protection and privacy to ensure your information is handled with care and integrity.
Responsive Support
Our team is here to guide you from start to finish through dedicated Slack channel or email, making your challenges our owns.
Every login method your users expect
Full auth surface out of the box. SMS OTP and email OTP carry Verify API signals forward into the session. Every other method feeds the same device trust graph.

Enterprise grade security
Built for teams with serious security requirements
If a user verified via OTP to log in, they should not need to verify again to change their password. Auth tracks verification state per session and carries it forward into downstream actions.
