Dashy vs Hanko: at a glance
What is Dashy?
Dashy shipped ten releases in five days; one fixes how auth headers trust origins
Dashy ships one release per merged PR. From October 26 to 31 that meant ten releases: six were Dependabot bumps, and the rest were fixes, including accepting IPv6 connections by default, a workspace header and search fix, an icon color fix, and a security fix for auth headers used with lookalike origins.
What is Hanko?
Hanko maps SAML and OIDC attributes into custom claims, a step toward enterprise SSO.
Hanko is a passkey-first authentication platform, open source or cloud-hosted. October's update lets teams bring attributes from SAML and custom OIDC connections into Hanko as custom claims, configured in the Cloud Console. Earlier 2026 releases added Firebase password hash import, inactivity logouts, session transparency and stronger passcode policies.

◆ Current state
Dashy ships one release per merged PR. From October 26 to 31 that meant ten releases: six were Dependabot bumps, and the rest were fixes, including accepting IPv6 connections by default, a workspace header and search fix, an icon color fix, and a security fix for auth headers used with lookalike origins.
◆ Where it's heading
The cadence stays automated and small-grained, with the maintainer's own fixes interleaved with dependency updates.
◆ Prediction
More single-PR releases will follow; the entries give no sign of a larger feature release.

Hanko maps SAML and OIDC attributes into custom claims, a step toward enterprise SSO.
◆ Current state
Hanko is a passkey-first authentication platform, open source or cloud-hosted. October's update lets teams bring attributes from SAML and custom OIDC connections into Hanko as custom claims, configured in the Cloud Console. Earlier 2026 releases added Firebase password hash import, inactivity logouts, session transparency and stronger passcode policies.
◆ Where it's heading
Hanko is filling in what enterprise customers expect from an identity provider: SSO attribute mapping, session controls and migration paths from incumbents. Releases arrive monthly or less, each with a narrow feature.
◆ Prediction
More enterprise SSO features, such as directory sync or role mapping from claims, are the likely next additions; the entries do not confirm a timeline.
