Overview
Nango is an integration platform for OAuth/API-key management, authenticated proxying, TypeScript functions, data syncs, webhooks, and actions across more than 1,000 APIs, with AI-assisted integration generation.
Features and best fit
Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:
Centralize OAuth, token refresh, and credential management
Provider-specific auth differences and multi-tenant connection lifecycles are handled behind a shared integration layer.
Implement proxy, sync, webhook, and action logic as TypeScript functions
Authenticated requests, recurring syncs, webhook processing, and write actions can run on the same integration runtime.
For SaaS products that must maintain many third-party API integrations over time
It fits product teams that do not want to rebuild auth, retries, rate-limit handling, and observability for every provider.

Review Elastic License restrictions and free versus enterprise self-hosting
ELv2 restricts hosted/managed-service use, and free self-hosting has a limited feature set compared with Cloud/Enterprise offerings.

Supplemental curator note
Although the README describes Nango as open source, the repository is licensed under Elastic License 2.0, which prohibits offering a hosted or managed service that exposes a substantial set of Nango functionality. Free self-hosting has a limited feature set, while Cloud and Enterprise Self-Hosted provide broader capabilities. It is recorded as `NOASSERTION` rather than OSI-standard OSS.
