AffixIO vs identity provider
Identity providers establish who someone is and maintain sessions. AffixIO evaluates policy per request and returns signed allow or deny. Different layer, complementary roles.
| Topic | Typical approach | AffixIO |
|---|---|---|
| Primary role | Identity and sessions | Signed yes/no per request |
| Data model | Standing user directory | Stateless at verifier |
| Audit | Login events | Proof per decision |
| AI agents | Human-centric sessions | Pre-action policy gates |
