FusionAuth, a customer identity and access management platform, announced its acquisition of Permify, an open-source authorization service. This acquisition joins authentication and authorization within a comprehensive platform, enabling organizations to oversee authentication, user management and fine-grained permissions in one place.
The integration incorporates Permify’s relationship-based authorization engine, which enables resource-level access control, into FusionAuth’s offerings. Customers will benefit from a unified platform for identity and permission management, along with centralized access policies to enforce consistency across services.
FusionAuth stated it will continue to support and expand the Permify open-source community. The unified product and an updated pricing model reflecting the combined capabilities are scheduled to launch in 2026. The terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
