Garrett Galow argues that building an AI-assisted prototype is easier than shipping an application that colleagues can reliably use. WorkOS pairs non-engineers with engineering mentors at hackathons and provides a shared CLI, templates and skills so teams do not have to solve deployment from scratch.
Garrett Galow describes the Wow CLI and Atlas platform: Git-based projects, Cloudflare Workers, D1 and KV storage, company app registration, Okta authentication, centrally managed secrets and request auditing. Examples include newsletter formatting and draft changelog tools. Granular role and group permissions are future work, not an already completed capability.
Garrett Galow reports 278 registered applications, about 60 maintained applications and roughly 3.3 million weekly requests at WorkOS. These are company-reported figures. He describes plans for more data integrations and simpler Slack application setup.
