Season 2 of Building Jam is all about learning from builders we admire. When we used WorkOS to build Single Sign-On for the Jam Enterprise plan, we loved our developer experience so much that we wanted to learn more. This week, CEO Michael Grinich joins us to give an inside look into what it has taken to build their product.

In this episode, we discuss:
(01:06) How does WorkOS determine what meets their quality bar?
(03:45) The importance of "the second 80%" of any project
(06:55) Internal Operating Principle: “Earn the wow”
(10:53) How to put a great product experience into words
(15:02) The quality vs. speed dilemma for startups
(19:49) How does WorkOS write docs
