Access
There is no signup form. You sign in, then you wait to be approved.
Chudware does not run its own account system. Authentication is handled by Cloudflare Access in front of the application, using an identity provider you already have. Chudware never receives, sets or stores a password.
How it goes
-
Sign in with Google, Microsoft or GitHub
Open app.chudware.com and pick a provider. The sign-in happens at the gateway, before any Chudware code runs. You are not creating a Chudware password, because there is none to create.
-
Your identity lands in a pending queue
A new email address arrives with no session rights: it cannot start a container, open a project or use the copilot. It can see that it is pending, and nothing else.
-
An administrator approves you
Approval is a human decision, made in the app's admin console. Once billing is live, an active subscription will be a second route to the same entitlement.
-
You get a seat
Sign in again and the session starts: your own container, your own home directory, and whatever tier limits your account carries.
Approval is manual and there is no published turnaround time. If you need access for a specific date, say so in the request and expect a reply from a person, not a robot.
What that means for your data
What the account record holds
- The email address your identity provider asserts.
- A display name, if the provider supplies one.
- Your role, seat entitlement and approval state.
- Once billing is live: a payment-processor customer id, so a subscription can be matched to an account.
What it never holds
- A password. The gateway does authentication and hands over an identity; no credential reaches the application.
- Card numbers. Checkout and the billing portal are run by the payment processor; the application only ever sees a customer id and a subscription state.
- Anything from another tenant's session. Each seat is a separate container with its own home directory.
Ready when you are.
Signing in is what puts you in the queue — there is no separate application to fill out.
