HYPR
A tool that lets employees and customers log in without a password at all — using something like a fingerprint or device unlock instead — which also means there's no password for a phishing email to steal, and no forgotten-password calls for the help desk

Description
Passwords cause two chronic problems: people fall for phishing emails that steal them, and IT help desks burn hours resetting the ones people forget — and both problems remain even with strong password policies. HYPR removes the root cause by replacing passwords entirely with FIDO2 passkeys, a cryptographic login method tied to a device that simply can't be phished the way a typed password can, since there's no secret to trick someone into typing.
HYPR is an Identity Assurance Platform covering the full identity lifecycle: employee onboarding, passwordless authentication via FIDO2 passkeys, adaptive risk-based access decisions, identity verification for help-desk recovery calls (to stop social-engineering attacks on IT support), and — more recently — authentication and control for AI agents (HYPR AgentPass). It integrates with major identity providers (Entra ID, Okta, Ping) and endpoint security tools (CrowdStrike), and reports having authenticated over 55 million users.
💬 Our review
The short version: HYPR sells the full passwordless lifecycle, not just the login button — including the underrated piece most competitors skip, which is verifying someone's identity when they call the help desk claiming they lost their device (a classic social-engineering attack vector).
At $3-9/user/month for workforce plans, it's priced accessibly enough to budget per-employee, and FIDO2 is an open, phishing-resistant standard rather than a proprietary trick, which is the right foundation. The 324% ROI and 55M+ authenticated users figures suggest real enterprise traction, not just marketing claims. Where it gets murkier is customer-facing (CIAM) pricing, which requires a minimum of 100,000 users and a custom quote — clearly not built for a smaller consumer app. For workforce identity specifically, HYPR is a mature, credible passwordless option; for a startup wanting simple customer login, it's likely overbuilt.

Face à Beyond Identity sur le même segment passwordless, la différenciation se joue surtout sur la profondeur du parcours identité (onboarding, help desk) plutôt qu'une techno radicalement différente
