@picsoung Yeah actually you should try out Typedream https://typedream.com/, it's website builder that is super simple like Notion, but you can make websites that actually looks great and professional!
Cotter would also be super easy to integrate into Typedream. Let me know if you wanna try it out, it's still on early access right now.
I've been working with Cotter for my new SaaS service and it's super easy to set up. I use multiple forms for different places of login and user creation. This saved me a lot of time.
I'm more of a fan of using Passwordless and send email code than the Smart link.
Is there an industry standard for when to use what for special use cases or customer flows?
@skavhellen Thank you, Thomas! If you're talking about when to use magic link vs code, it depends. Mostly, using magic link is more convenient. However, there are special cases (like Desktop app, etc) that needs to use the Code instead of magic link in order to work.
Also generally, entering code might improve security since the user would be consciously entering the code to your website.
Very cool.
I look forward to working on an integration to securely gate content.
Current solutions allow folks to easily access content by just disabling Javascript.
@volkandkaya We do have an extensive SDK and API which allows for a full OAuth 2.0 integration which is secure.
If you make a built-in integration with Versoly, we can use access tokens generated by Cotter to protect Versoly's API endpoints that handles returning page data on the backend.
@putrikarunia we already have a very simple password protection system that works great (serverless) and is secure.
If you're able to send a little extra info with the login request we can use that to give access to the logged in user.
We're also looking at adding page restriction by multiple subscription tier.
The use case would be for free/basic/premium tier content sites.
@volkandkaya Make sense, yes we include a JWT token accessible via the SDK whenever a user is logged-in (also returned when the user just successfully log in). Would that work?
For multi-tier subscription, if that's handled on your end, you can also add custom claims to the JWT to specify which tier the user is in.
I am a react developer. I found the setup super simple. The best part of Cotter is there support on Slack: super quick, super helpful
Love the simplicity :) was wondering how it compares security wise with memberstack and co. Seems by disabling JS one can access the content as with memberstack, am I missing something?
@arturmkrtchyan Hey Artur! Security wise if used on no-code website builders where the user hard-coded their sensitive info on a page, it's the same as Memberstack (disabling JS can allow access to content).
However, we do have an extensive SDK and API which allows for a full OAuth 2.0 integration which is secure. This means if you can make a built-in integration with Softr, we can utilize access tokens generated by Cotter to protect Softr's API endpoints that handles returning page data on the backend.
What Cotter are doing for authentication is marvelous. An accessible tool for developers to easily add password-less auth to their websites is definitely needed and it's best that it's a focused product like this instead of always trying to do 'checkout' as well.
I’m such a huge fan of cotter. Building auth is always a nightmare. Even with all the solutions out there, none are as elegant as cotter, both for the builder and the end-user. I would actually be so sad if I couldn’t use Cotter anymore.
Hey Product Hunt! Michelle, Kevin, Putri, Anthony, and Albert here - excited to share Cotter No-Code Authentication with you!
Cotter is the easiest way to add passwordless login to websites built on No-Code website builders like Webflow, Wix, Wordpress, etc. Simply copy a URL and insert it to your Login Button to automatically show a Login Form and start authenticating your users.
You can also add the following features:
Protected Pages: Only allow logged in users to access protected pages.
Restrict Access: Decide who can use your login form: only allow emails from specific domains, etc.
Export User Data: Export logged in user data to Google Sheets or other 3rd party apps (Webflow CMS, Airtable, etc.) via Zapier.

@michelle_marcelline Hi Michelle! Congrats on the launch! Are there any major changes since the previous update?
Yes! We made it very simple for NoCode builders to integrate authentication to their websites. No code needed ☺️
@michelle_marcelline @aaronoleary Hi Aaron, Michelle's co-founder here.
We updated our SDKs and dashboard completely to focus on helping No-code builders add login to their website. All the features that we highlighted in the media are part of our new updates and were not available previously.
(We were developer-focused and most of our features, SDKs, and dashboard were very technical and developers had to write their own code in order to achieve the features highlighted above. On the new update, these features are now available through our dashboard and can be done in just a few clicks)
Hope this helps!
Congrats with the launch. Pretty cool feature and a great onboarding experience for users! One quiestion: Is Cotter login also suited for Bubble apps, @michelle_marcelline?
@michelle_marcelline Sorry. Did find your stack of integrations now. I'll really consider this for my future Bubble app. Thanks:)
@eivindhaa Thank you Eivind!
For others: Bubble integration can be found on our No-Code Cookbook https://typedream.app/cotter/coo...
It's refreshing to see an actually interesting business name too. Welcome back Cotter! I love it.
I think this is a great solution! Will there be a version for use in mobile applications?
@alxvok Thanks Alex! You can use our mobile SDKs to add it to your mobile app. We have a React Native, Flutter, iOS, and Android SDK. Let me know if you need any help!
