heylogin

heylogin is a passwordless enterprise login and credential management platform founded in 2020 in Kiel, Germany. Unlike traditional password managers that require users to remember and type a master password, heylogin uses the employee's smartphone as the authentication device. Credentials are unlocked via biometric verification (fingerprint or face recognition) on the phone, eliminating the master password entirely and removing one of the most common attack vectors in credential management.

The platform provides a browser extension that automatically fills login credentials once the user authenticates on their smartphone. Teams can share credentials securely through the admin dashboard without revealing the actual passwords to team members. The zero-knowledge architecture ensures that heylogin's servers never have access to the stored credentials in plaintext. The admin dashboard gives IT administrators visibility into credential usage, with audit logs tracking who accessed which shared credentials and when. heylogin also supports SSO integration, allowing it to complement existing identity providers rather than replace them entirely.

As a German company, heylogin stores all encrypted vault data exclusively in German data centers, providing strong GDPR compliance and data residency guarantees. The passwordless approach is particularly appealing for European enterprises in regulated industries where password fatigue leads to weak credentials and security incidents. For organizations looking to replace US-based solutions like LastPass, Dashlane, or Okta with a fundamentally more secure authentication approach, heylogin offers a fresh take on credential management that eliminates passwords rather than just managing them, all while keeping sensitive data under German jurisdiction.
