Repositions 1Password from client side to server side. Someone still has to store keys and manage auth for sites providing passwordless login capabilities.
Your need for a password manager quickly declines as the world moves towards SSO (enterprise) and passkeys (in general).
> Instead of each company having to build its own implementation of passkeys, this approach makes it possible for them to adopt a turnkey solution and offer the easiest and most secure sign-in experience to their customers in less time.
> By taking the hassle out of one of the biggest challenges facing companies interested in passkeys, 1Password is ready to play a key role in broadening the adoption of passwordless authentication industry-wide.
