## What it is
Granted is a Go-based CLI application that simplifies finding and assuming AWS IAM roles across multiple accounts. It encrypts cached SSO credentials and lets users open multiple AWS account consoles in the browser simultaneously.

## Use cases
- assume aws roles from the command line
- manage multiple aws sso profiles
- open several aws accounts in browser tabs at once
- encrypt cached aws sso tokens on disk
- quickly switch between dev and prod aws accounts
- access aws console for multiple roles

## When to choose
- you work across many AWS accounts and profiles daily
- you use AWS SSO and want a faster login workflow
- you want encrypted credential caching instead of plaintext tokens
- you need to view multiple AWS consoles simultaneously

## When to avoid
- you only use a single AWS account with static keys
- you need support for non-AWS cloud providers
- you require a GUI-based cloud credential manager
