Case Study: Flo achieves 100% secure password adoption and speeds projects from weeks to hours with 1Password

How Flo uses 1Password CLI to automate security

Flo is an AI-powered women’s health app (founded in 2015) used by over 160 million people worldwide and consistently rated 4.8 stars. As the company scaled, it needed a secure, privacy-preserving way to provide third-party service credentials to its cloud environment (AWS) without relying on manual, insecure password-sharing processes.

Flo rolled out 1Password company-wide and combined the 1Password command-line tool with Terraform to automate secure transfer of credentials into AWS Parameter Store. The solution eliminated manual access, enforced need-to-know access, delivered end-to-end encryption, achieved 100% adoption, and cut project timelines from weeks to hours while keeping the company’s security and privacy principles intact.
