Credenti was founded with a clear purpose: to close the critical gaps left by Identity Providers (IdPs) in delivering passwordless and multi-factor authentication (MFA) where it matters most — at the desktop level. While modern IdPs promised passwordless login, their capabilities stopped at the browser. Desktop logins for Windows, macOS, and Linux remained reliant on legacy credentials — creating a fragmented and insecure user experience. Disconnected environments and legacy applications were left out of the passwordless promise. Organizations had to maintain multiple authentication methods, undermining zero trust initiatives and increasing operational overhead.
