Corbado Observe | The Authentication Observability Layer
Authentication Observability
The authentication observability layer for every login
Keep your existing IdP. Observe reconstructs passkey, password, OTP, social and SSO journeys, so you see why logins fail and what to fix first.
- Sits on top of your existing IDP and login flow
- Find root causes behind failed authentication journeys
- Measure login friction, method uplift and passkey adoption
Funnel analytics
Per-user debugging
See how users log in, fall back or fail in real time across every authentication path.
What changes with Observe
| Time | Description |
|---|---|
| Minutes | Time to detect login error spikes per segment, before tickets pile up |
| 1 search | Time to root cause from a support ticket to the user's exact login journey |
| 2 weeks | Time to a baseline login success per method and device from production |
| 0 | IDP changes async snippet beside your login, nothing to migrate |
| 5–15% | of users hit problems registering a new authentication method |
“Monitor enrollment … regularly measure the current state of the implementation and modify the approach as needed.”
Gartner, "Start Your Passwordless Implementation Now," Paul Rabinovich, 24 February 2026.
Most teams never see this drop-off. Corbado shows it, so you can fix it before it costs users.
Authentication observability for every login journey and any IdP
Observe turns raw client-side events into one journey model, with console views to diagnose friction, investigate failures, grow passkey adoption and prove what changed.
Find the login paths that lose users
Choose a production question, then inspect the matching console view, evidence and deep dive without leaving the authentication context.
Investigate
Get the root cause, sized in lost logins
Findings turn errors into one root cause at a time: what happens, who has to act, how many completions it costs and how to fix it, with a prompt for your coding agent. Corbado prepares them from your error data.
What teams learn
Teams fix the problem that costs the most logins first, with the evidence already attached.
Authentication questions answered in Observe
- Diagnose open one dashboard for every login question
- Benchmark compare every login method on the same users
- Investigate know which authenticators hold your passkeys
- Diagnose map the live login process, not just success vs failure
- Optimize measure which authentication method improves completion
- Report headline login KPIs against explicit targets
Built for
Three teams need answers from the same production evidence.
Identity, product and support each own a different decision. Corbado Observe gives them shared evidence, without forcing every team to stitch together its own version of the truth.

Integration model
Add the missing client-side layer without touching authentication.
Observe sits beside your existing login. The browser or app sends authentication telemetry asynchronously, while your IDP, login flow and sessions stay untouched.
Async telemetry
- Fire-and-forget. If Observe is unavailable, your auth flow still runs.
Collected
- Event types
- Hashed ID
- Error codes

Integration
Configured Autocapture. Insights the same day.
Your team adds one snippet, Corbado configures the rest.

Add-on · Passkey Intelligence
From seeing failed passkey logins to preventing them
Before the passkey prompt, your login asks Observe what will work on this device.
