Every company we talk to has the same quiet fear. One bad automation, one fat-fingered admin change, one compromised token, and the system that decides who gets into everything is suddenly wrong. With identity, the blast radius is the whole company.
Butterfly started with Okta because that is where the pain was sharpest. Recover your Okta org in minutes, not hours. Point-in-time backups, a dry-run restore so you can see exactly what will change before anything is written, and drift detection so you know when reality has moved away from your last known-good state.
But identity does not live in one place anymore. The same team running Okta is often running Google Workspace for mail and directory, Microsoft Entra ID for the Windows and Azure side of the house, and an automation layer like Workato or Okta Workflows stitching it all together. A resilience story that stops at one provider is not really a resilience story.
Where we are headed
We are extending the same model to the rest of the identity estate. The shape is deliberately identical across providers, because that consistency is the point:
- Google Workspace. Directory users, groups, org units, roles, and admin settings. The same backup and dry-run restore discipline, with domain-wide delegation so it reads cleanly without standing access.
- Microsoft Entra ID. Users, groups, app registrations, conditional access, and the non-human identities that quietly accumulate. Restore is layered so you can rehearse it safely before you run it for real.
- Workato. Recipes, connections, and the automation logic that, when it breaks, breaks everything downstream. Automation recovery as a first-class surface, the same way we treat Okta Workflows today.
Across all of them, the contract is the same one we hold for Okta. A backup you can trust, a restore you can preview before you commit, and a diff that tells you what actually changed.
What is live today, stated plainly
We are careful about this line, because our customers are CISOs, and CISOs have been burned by vendor roadmaps dressed up as shipping product.
Generally available today: Okta, Okta Workflows, and Auth0. Backup, dry-run restore, diff, scheduling, audit history, and a signed evidence pack for your auditors.
In active development, not yet generally available: Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID, and Workato. The engines exist and are under test. We will say they are live when they are live in production, validated against real tenants, and not a day before.
That distinction is not a disclaimer. It is the product. The whole premise of Butterfly is that you can trust what we tell you about the state of your identity infrastructure. We are not going to undermine that with marketing.
Why this matters now
Identity is consolidating and fragmenting at the same time. Consolidating onto a few large providers, and fragmenting across the seams between them. The recovery story has to span those seams. That is the company we are building. One resilience layer across every identity provider you depend on, with the same honest contract everywhere.
If you run Okta today, we can help you now. If your estate also runs Google, Entra, or Workato, we would like to hear how you think about resilience across all of it.
