Authelia vs ToolJet
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Authelia and ToolJet — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Authelia vs ToolJet: at a glance
What is Authelia?
Authelia patches two access control bypass paths from canonicalization gaps.
Authelia v4.39.x is in a sustained hardening cycle: a critical security release in May fixed two authentication bypass paths, and subsequent patch releases have worked through a dense queue of OIDC protocol compliance bugs — resource indicators, client credentials foreign key handling, authentication strategy configuration, and resource strategy matching. The pace of micro-patches (v4.39.21 through v4.39.25 in a two-week window) reflects active production use surfacing edge cases.
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet lands multi-model AI picker and a new Basic tier in the same LTS release
ToolJet ships on two parallel tracks — beta (3.21.x) and LTS (3.20.x) — with several releases per week. The LTS track just delivered multi-model AI build support with a two-pane model picker and a model catalogue, plus a new Basic pricing plan. The beta track is absorbing housekeeping: lint formatting, dependency bumps, and minor UX fixes to keep LTS stable for production.

Authelia
5.0INFRA · APIS
Authelia patches two access control bypass paths from canonicalization gaps.
◆ Current state
Authelia v4.39.x is in a sustained hardening cycle: a critical security release in May fixed two authentication bypass paths, and subsequent patch releases have worked through a dense queue of OIDC protocol compliance bugs — resource indicators, client credentials foreign key handling, authentication strategy configuration, and resource strategy matching. The pace of micro-patches (v4.39.21 through v4.39.25 in a two-week window) reflects active production use surfacing edge cases.
◆ Where it's heading
The OIDC fix pattern is deliberate: Authelia is closing gaps in the parts of OAuth 2.0/OIDC that enterprise clients actually use — resource indicators, client credentials grants, pooled authentication. This isn't maintenance drift; it's building toward a more complete OIDC server for complex multi-client deployments. The access control canonicalization fix from May signals a broader audit of how Authelia normalizes domain names and usernames before authorization decisions.
◆ Prediction
The OIDC compliance fixes in v4.39.x are groundwork for new grant types and flows in a future major version. Expect device authorization flow or Pushed Authorization Requests (PAR) to appear in a v4.40 or v5.x roadmap entry once the protocol surface is cleaned up.

ToolJet lands multi-model AI picker and a new Basic tier in the same LTS release
◆ Current state
ToolJet ships on two parallel tracks — beta (3.21.x) and LTS (3.20.x) — with several releases per week. The LTS track just delivered multi-model AI build support with a two-pane model picker and a model catalogue, plus a new Basic pricing plan. The beta track is absorbing housekeeping: lint formatting, dependency bumps, and minor UX fixes to keep LTS stable for production.
◆ Where it's heading
ToolJet is accelerating toward AI-native app building: AI builder recovery, a model catalogue, and a two-pane model picker landed across consecutive LTS releases. The Basic plan suggests a push down-market to capture individual developers alongside the enterprise positioning. The beta-versus-LTS split lets the team iterate fast on AI features without destabilizing production installations.
◆ Prediction
Expect the model picker and AI builder features to ship fully stabilized in LTS, with agents able to select and switch models within builder workflows. The Basic plan will likely be followed by usage-based pricing tied to AI feature consumption.
