## What it is
Passport is an identity verification application that lets users build collections of verifiable credentials to prove unique humanity in a decentralized way. Organizations can then assess these identities to coordinate rights and responsibilities, such as preventing duplicate accounts.

## Use cases
- prove I am a unique human without centralized ID
- prevent sybil attacks and duplicate accounts in online communities
- collect and manage verifiable credentials about myself
- verify user identities for governance or airdrops
- implement plural identity-based organizational design

## When to choose
- you need decentralized, privacy-preserving proof of personhood
- you want to assess user uniqueness via verifiable credentials
- you are building web3 or community governance tooling

## When to avoid
- you need government-grade KYC compliance
- you want a simple centralized authentication provider like OAuth
- you need an offline or non-web identity system

## Facets
- artifact type: application
