If you're like me, you've probably used Basecamp, GitHub, Heroku, HipChat, and many other apps on a daily basis. One of the things I found annoying was sending out invitations to all of these different apps. Onboarder solves this. When you need to invite someone new, type in their email (and GitHub username) and you're done. Onboarder handles the rest.
Better yet, when you need to remove access, you can do so with just one click.
I'm exploring opportunities to make this process even simpler. I definitely think it would be better with deeper integration. For a first version, I think it's pretty cool.
Thanks a lot for listening and I welcome any and all feedback.
Identity, access/SSO, provisioning and management are all massive problems that need to be dealt with. For an MVP you are hitting on the important stuff.
Security and being trustworthy are going to be extremely important and I would stress that if I were you. You don't want to be a weak link.
This seems very valuable to large teams, and like a small convenience to large teams.
Onboarder is definitely not that complex yet, but I'm still learning about this space. My goal was to make it simple. Connect with OAuth or give us an API key, and we're good to go.
The onboarding/offboarding process is generally initiated from there, and internal apps and services tend to use that as the canonical user store.
Good luck with your project, I hope it works out well for you!
