## About

Descope is a customer and agentic identity and access management platform designed to simplify authentication and authorization journeys for users, business customers, partners, and AI agents. It provides visual no-code workflows, SDKs, and APIs to implement user onboarding, Single Sign-On, multi-factor authentication, fine-grained access control, and identity federation. The platform helps engineering teams build secure login flows, prevent account takeover, and manage identity synchronization without modifying core application code.
