Authzed

Authzed (operating at authzed.com) is a permissions systems-as-a-service platform engineered for modern applications and AI-driven workflows. Founded in 2020 by three successful entrepreneurs with backgrounds in enterprise software—most recently as leaders at Red Hat—and headquartered in the United States, Authzed eliminates the complexity of traditional permission management. Under the hood, its authorization infrastructure delivers enterprise-scale performance and consistent access control, abstracting the intricacies of fine-grained policies into a scalable, performant solution. This allows developers and security teams to enforce granular permissions without manual rule-writing or over-engineering, reducing both operational overhead and security risks. Backed by a mission to democratize secure authorization, Authzed serves organizations building AI systems and high-scale applications, where dynamic access control is critical but legacy solutions fall short.
