How does this compare to security offerings from other BaaS providers like Kinvey, Parse, etc?

The key difference is that we are a real-time backend. We push data changes down to clients when things change and trigger callbacks so the apps can remain responsive. Parse, Kinvey, etc are based on a request / response model. I know some of them can do mobile push notifications, but those aren't really analogous and are a separate service from their data service.

We're real-time, all the time.

We're also focused on the data layer of your app, and on the web, rather than being a mobile-focused company.
