Front SCIM pricing: what it's gated behind, and what it costs
SCIM gated behind a paid tier. Iden provisions Front on any plan tier.
2 min read · Last updated June 2026
Front gates SCIM provisioning behind its Scale plan (Scale: $99/seat/mo (annual)), up from Starter: $19/seat/mo. Standard plans cannot use automated provisioning, so most identity tools either make you upgrade, about 5.2x the per-seat price across every user, or leave Front manual. Iden provisions Front on any plan, so you skip the SCIM tax entirely and still get provisioning, deprovisioning, and access reviews with a full audit trail.
What the Front SCIM tax costs
Front gates SCIM to the Scale plan (Scale: $99/seat/mo (annual)), up from Starter: $19/seat/mo, about 5.2x the per-seat price across every user. With Iden you connect Front on any plan instead, so this cost does not apply.

How Iden provisions Front on any plan
Iden does not depend on Front’s SCIM endpoint. It connects Front through the method that works on your plan, an API, OAuth, or Iden’s own custom automation, and runs the full lifecycle: onboarding on day one, permission changes as roles move, access requests that replace manual tickets, access reviews with evidence, and offboarding in seconds. That is the coverage SCIM-only tools cannot match once an app gates or lacks SCIM.
