Fast - World's fastest login and checkout

by
Fast is the easiest way to securely login.
The Fast button can be easily added to any website for secure one-click login for all users.
Fast supports 100% of users, authenticating through email, and doesn’t require users to have a Fast account.
Login, Fast!

I like the idea and the execution, but would love more info on the security and tech behind it. an aside: is it built on Laravel?

@danmatthews what we are doing is scaling authentication, it doesn't make sense that we continually re-login everywhere and duplicate authentication over & over. So Fast authenticates a user, using existing and accepted industry security, then provides access to that authenticated token to multiple services/websites. Built with PHP (Not Laravel) / GoLang / Node

@domm Thanks for the reply, i really like it, gonna add it to a few apps i use - one of which is used daily by university students who just can't seem to ever remember their password. Are you planning to charge for it in the future? I'll probably stick it on https://endear.app when we launch too, i like the idea.

@danmatthews Fantastic, looking forward to having you onboard - let me know as you launch them domm@fast.co. This product is our free product, we have a v2 paid product already in beta which is the next gen 'easier' version of this!
Daniel Matthews
@fast @domm fantastic, i will, thanks.

@domm Hello domm, Nice product! I love your product. I want to join the v2 product is already in beta. It would be appreciate let me know how to join. Thanks!

UI design is a little haphazard, long email overhanging boundaries, hamburger menus in the middle of the top nav. These small details build trust especially important for authentication.

Pros:

Nice implementation of email based authentication

Cons:

Lots of opportunity for polish improvements. Details matter for trust.

Good feedback, scaling product improvement as quickly as user growth!

long email overhanging boundaries - FIXED, was annoying the crap out of me too :) Hamburger menu is actually meant to be there, does left-align on mobile.

Good job guys! Any plans for WordPress plugin soon?

This is a very big idea that can remove a real pain point for both consumers and brands. I don’t want to give all my data to Google and Facebook. Seems like a slick experience, hope lots of sites adopt this.
domm

@p_a_chan Absolutely, profile information is not necessary to scale authentication. We don't need to own, and don't want to own your users identity!
Ian Walter
@p_a_chan @domm But you have to own some of it in order to get checkout to work right? What data (other than payment, shipping info) can I get from the user when implementing this for checkout? Like can I specify that users need to supply their DOB as well?

A cool idea and I'll be experimenting to integrate it with one of my projects.

Pros:

Makes login much easier

Cons:

Docs, and no apparent way to customize the button (language etc)

domm
Maker
Yes, we tighly control the button so users get a consisten experience. The button actually automatically loads in 18 languages already (based on viewers browser language) with plans to support a lot more in the future.
Elijah Salberg
Is it not possible to change the look of it through CSS?
Amjad Ali
Awesome! Any plans for a WooCommerce Add-on? Also I suggest maybe allowing to customize the button look and feel to match the website.
domm
Maker
@amjad_ali4 absolutely planning on support for easy install on WooCommerce. Button customisation a deeper discussion as it’s more important to have common branding for users to understand they can easily login at a glance!

Try out logging in with the Fast Button, it's like magic: Login first at https://fast.co Then try our one click login one any of Fast powered site, such as https://24hundred.net/account/login Got your own website? Put the Fast button on your site in 2 lines of code, and make it easy to login! - https://fast.co/developer/docs

Hey @domm, first of all congratulations for the successful launch. While testing, I encountered this error http://i.mythemeshop.com/yEtNPg

@suraj78 thanks, yes it seems the Shopify connector is returning errors. I have reported it thank you! Fast service itself is still running perfectly. Thanks!

Anything to remove steps for a new client is a step in the right direction.

Pros:

It’s so easy to install and allows our customers to log in and out seamlessly. Such a great UX.

Cons:

have not seen anything like it that works so smooth.

1. Scenario: Let's say I login using a public computer. How would I logout? Normally in a login UI there would be a checkbox with texts along the lines of 'Is this a public computer?' and this would create a 'temporary' session. I signed out of the fast.co website but was still seeing my email address and actionable button to be able to login. I closed out my browser to check if i was still 'logged in' as well. Thoughts? 2. As an application developer, I would like to see some sort of test keys or separation of redirect URLs, editable redirect URL and my app deletability. This is a great idea and I hope it catches on with little security incidents... hopefully.

@adrian_mejias in the fast console there is a tab that’s called sessions, there you can remotely kill sessions for any device you are logged into, even remotely.
Brandon Anzaldi
Hey! Definitely neat, and the idea that it gives you the convenience of OAuth without having to rely on a big provider like Facebook, Google, or Twitter is definitely a plus. Also interesting is it'll give me more trust in the product once you guys launch your paid version. (You know the old adage: "If someone's not paying for the product, then they are the product.") Are you folks planning on launching a bug bounty program? Since security is integral to a service like this, testing it for vulnerabilities will also be integral. Looking forward to where this goes!
domm
Maker
@caffeinewriter will definitely be launching a bug bounty program, stay tuned. The paid product is about making it even easier again to login. Business/website will pay per user per month for that product, marginal cost.
domm
Maker
@caffeinewriter but we will still keep the current product free as a feeder for the next!
Ben Thompson
Easy login is always an issue, this is a great product. Failed logins are costing businesses alot more than they realize, great work!

@ben_thompson1935 Thanks Ben, the button would look great on IncoDocs! ;)

This will really change everything about how we login to sites. It’s a no-brainer and can see this being widely adopted at a rapid rate.

@petedavisuk Absolutely, for eCommerce = gain sales and reduces cart abandonment, for SAAS increase retention and LTV!

Hey does it work with Firebase auth?
domm
Maker
@piotrszwach No native integration as yet, but our open API means you can integrate easily. Watch this space.
Stuart Russell
I have been waiting for something like this. How can it prevent users thinking the site is weakly secured? - Maybe the button needs strengthening up.
domm
Maker
@sturusell button is absolutely key to messaging, but we also leverage the trust of the host site. Bigger the network of installed sites, the bigger the inferred trust for the user.
