Ory Kratos is a server that handles user login, sign-up, password recovery and profile management so that apps do not have to build these themselves. It is aimed at developers and companies who run their own apps and need user accounts.

What we couldn't confirm3
- Whether Kratos alone offers the full job of Okta or Auth0 without Ory Hydra
- Exact feature parity with Okta or Auth0 beyond what the README lists
- Whether the closed-app list entries were meant for Ory Identities on the Ory Network rather than self-hosted Kratos
