Akedly.io - Authentication as a Service

The most cost-effective, developer-friendly OTP authentication platform. Deliver secure authentication through WhatsApp, SMS, Email, and TOTP with pay-per-successful-authentication pricing that can be up to 10× cheaper than Twilio.

What Akedly Does

Authentication as a Service (OTP Gateway): Akedly handles the complete OTP authentication flow—from delivery to verification and fraud protection—so you can focus on building your core product.

Pay-Per-Successful-Authentication: Unlike traditional providers, you only pay when the OTP is successfully verified. Failed attempts, spam, or incomplete flows? You don't pay.

Extremely Cost-Effective: Authenticate users internationally at local prices. Up to 10× cheaper than Twilio, and you can pay in EGP with no registration papers or tax requirements.

10-Minute Integration: Complete setup with routing, fallback channels, spam protection, and analytics handled automatically.
