Enforce secure, time-limited access to premium web content
Monetizing premium content on the web often comes with a trade-off between security and user experience. Whether it's high-resolution art, scientific data, or gated educational material, implementing robust access control usually demands deep integration and backend development. Webfuse removes that barrier.
The Challenge of Controlling Access Without Changing the App Most content providers rely on external platforms or invest heavily in building their own access-control systems.
These often involve:
- Complex authentication flows
- Backend engineering for session management
- Risk of content leaks or unauthorized sharing
- Difficulty implementing time-based restrictions
This is especially challenging when the content is hosted in third-party apps or legacy web galleries with limited customization options.
