Summary

Kinde offers a platform that facilitates seamless and secure connections between applications and third-party services by using machine-to-machine (M2M) token management, allowing actions to be authorized once and maintained indefinitely. Unlike other services that require users to repeatedly verify connections, Kinde's system ensures ongoing authorization by securely managing refresh tokens, thereby mitigating security vulnerabilities. This approach separates the social login process from app connection, ensuring a streamlined user experience without repetitive authorization prompts. Kinde's platform plans to enhance user interface management, enabling users to manage connections directly from its dashboard.
