Transcodes is an Authentication-as-a-Service platform designed for passkey-first, passwordless login and multi-factor authentication. The service allows users to sign in with passkeys, TOTP, or hardware authenticators like YubiKey via USB/NFC, supporting phishing-resistant authentication without requiring clients to integrate their own backend infrastructure.

The platform offers passkey integration with native support for TouchID, FaceID, and Windows Hello authentication. It includes multi-factor authentication options such as TOTP, Email OTP, and Security Key authentication. The service provides admin MFA step-up capabilities to protect admin dashboards and features automatic management of encrypted sessions with automatic token refresh.

Transcodes works through a simple integration process requiring just a few lines of code. Users add a script to their web app, check authentication status using the provided API, and can open login modals programmatically. The service handles all authentication flows including passkey to email OTP fallback, error handling, and browser/device compatibility issues.

The platform delivers 93% login success rate (30% higher than passwords) and provides 100% phishing protection through domain verification. It offers 81% reduction in helpdesk tickets and eliminates password breaches using FIDO2/WebAuthn cryptography. Users can download their data anytime for migration to other services.

Transcodes is specifically built for startups, no-code web builders, and small growing businesses that need to launch MVPs quickly without dedicated authentication engineering resources. The service enables companies to validate their business model faster by eliminating weeks of development time typically required for authentication implementation.
