The State of Michigan's Passkey Experience
summary
State of Michigan implements passkeys (passwordless) across the MyLogin identity platform: 360 integrated apps (32 public), 13.3 million public users, built by a 3–5 person core team over eight months at $400k, and deployed June 24, 2023. Registration time drops from 7m29s to 4m53s, abandonment falls from 85% to 13%, help‑desk calls fall ~30% for DHHS, registered passkeys grow ~14–16k/month, and there are zero reported enrollment issues—so the system is working at scale.
