EVERYTHING YOU NEED.
NOTHING YOU DON'T.

HWID Locking

Bind a license to a single machine. Spoof-resistant. One key, one device, zero ambiguity.

Encrypted Transit

Variables, files, and payloads encrypted in-flight. Memory dumpers get nothing useful.

Sub-50ms API

Authentication handshakes complete in under 50ms. No spinners. No spinner theater.

Key Generation

Custom masks. Tiered expiry. Bulk operations. Generate thousands of keys per second.

User Management

Create, ban, extend, reset, and audit at scale. Bulk operations on 10k+ users.

Webhooks

Discord, Telegram, and custom endpoints. Get notified the moment a state changes.

// THE STACK

BUILT LIKE A FORTRESS.
SHIPS LIKE A LIBRARY.

Drop our SDK into your stack — C++, C#, Python, Node, Rust. One include, three lines, and your binary is talking to BetterAuth. No DLL hell. No opaque wrappers.

A1. 256-bit AES session keys

A2. HWID entropy + anti-tamper signals

A3. Region, ISP, and VPN heuristics

A4. IP rate limits + abuse signals

betterauth.h — main.cpp

#include <betterauth/betterauth.h>

int main() {
    betterauth::Client r("a7f2c9e1b4d8...", "myapp");

    auto session = r.init();
    if (!session) return 1;

    if (r.login("client_42", password, hwid)) {
        // authenticated — your binary is now real
        std::cout << "welcome, " << session.user();
    }
}
