Designing user management for machine-to-machine interactions
If a user lacks human traits and doesn’t have much of a personality, there might be a good reason for this. The user might be a machine.
Today, more than 90% of internet traffic is between machines. In reality, machines that consume your B2B SaaS application are also users—just a different kind of user.
