Who is Holochain For?¶

Your users need to access your application despite unreliable network conditions or even total loss of connectivity.
You want to reduce your security burden by taking advantage of proactive, adaptive security that minimizes the impact of data breaches and automatically responds to attacks.
You want to see your application scale automatically and cheaply with user adoption.
You need to meet strong privacy requirements (e.g., GDPR and HIPAA) without much hassle.
Your users demand customizability and sovereignty over their online activities.
You want to equip your user communities to own their infrastructure—without having to become system admins.
You’re exploring non-extractive business models, but you think that ‘being good’ won’t bring in as much money and you want technology that makes it affordable to stick to your principles.
You’re ready to trade some control for technology that puts your users first.
You’ve tried blockchain, but found it slow, expensive, and hard to tweak for your needs.
