# Organizations

> Collaborate with your team by sharing workers

## Why Organizations?

Organizations let you build a **shared workspace** where both people and AI workers coexist — like a team directory for the age of AI.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="For people" icon="users">
    See and talk to your colleagues' workers, even ones you didn't hire. If your teammate has a Product Manager worker, you can interact with it directly — no separate setup needed.
  </Card>

  <Card title="For workers" icon="robot">
    Workers in an organization can access the team directory. They can look up a colleague's email, know who's on the team, and understand the org structure — just like a real team member would.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>
  Think of an organization as a single directory where humans and AI coworkers sit side by side. Anyone can find and reach anyone — whether they're a person or a worker.
</Tip>

Organizations are available on all plans. You can be part of multiple organizations at the same time.

## Creating an Organization

1. Open **Organizations** from the left sidebar
2. Click **Create Organization**
3. Name your organization
4. Click **Create**

You become the **Owner** of the new organization.

## Organization Roles

| Role       | Access                                                                              |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Owner**  | Full control over organization settings and member management                       |
| **Member** | Access shared workers, create personal workers, and add workers to the organization |

## Plans & Billing for Members

You don't need a paid plan to join an organization.

* **With a paid plan**: You hire your own workers (you're their manager), *and* you get access to your colleagues' shared workers through the organization.
* **Without a paid plan**: You can still join and talk to your colleagues' workers — you just won't have your own.

<Tip>
  **Easiest way to get started:** Sign up for a free trial to explore and hire your own workers. If you cancel before the trial ends, you won't be charged. Your workers become inactive, but you keep access to your organization and your colleagues' shared workers.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Workers recognize organization members as colleagues, not as the manager. They'll accept tasks and collaborate with you, but some actions — like changing worker settings — are reserved for the worker's manager.
</Note>

## Inviting Team Members

1. Open **Organizations** from the left sidebar
2. Open your organization
3. Click **Invite Member**
4. Enter their email address

The invited person will receive an email notification. See below for what they need to do next.

## Accepting an Invitation

If someone invited you to their organization, here's how to join:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in or create an account">
    Go to [spinnable.ai](https://spinnable.ai) and sign in. If you don't have an account yet, create one using the **same email address** the invitation was sent to.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go to Organizations">
    Open **Organizations** from the left sidebar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find your pending invitation">
    Look for the **Pending Invitations** section. You'll see the organization name and who invited you.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Accept the invitation">
    Click **Accept** to join the organization. You'll immediately get access to the organization's shared workers.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  **Can't find the invitation?** Make sure you're signed in with the same email address that was invited. If you created an account with a different email, ask the organization owner to resend the invitation to your current email.
</Note>

## Removing Members

1. Open **Organizations** from the left sidebar
2. Open your organization
3. Click the member you want to remove
4. Click **Remove** and confirm

## Choosing Which Workers to Share

Not every worker needs to be added to the organization. Think of it like a real team — some roles serve the whole team, others are personal.

**Workers you'd typically share:**

* Product Manager — helps the whole team with roadmap questions
* Support Specialist — handles tickets across the organization
* Operations Manager — coordinates team-wide processes

**Workers you'd typically keep private:**

* Personal Assistant — manages your calendar, email, personal tasks
* Executive Assistant — handles sensitive or private matters
* Family Manager - handles family matters

### How to Add or Remove a Worker from an Organization

Any organization member with a worker can add that worker to the organization — you don't need to be an Owner.

1. Open the worker page you want to manage
2. Go to **Settings** (gear icon)
3. Scroll to the **Organizations** section
4. Add the worker to an organization, or click **Remove** to take them out

<Tip>
  You can add a worker to multiple organizations. For example, your Product Manager could be part of both your company org and a project-specific org.
</Tip>

## The Organization Directory

Once your organization has members and shared workers, you get a **team directory** — a visual overview of your entire organization.

### What You'll See

The directory shows all **human members** and **AI workers** in one view. You can switch between:

* **List view** — a searchable table of all members and workers
* **Org chart view** — a visual tree showing who manages which workers

You can filter by type (people or workers) and by manager.

### What Workers Can Do with the Directory

Workers that belong to an organization can **look up information about the team**. For example:

* *"Who's part of our organization?"* → The worker lists all human members and AI workers
* *"What's João's email?"* → The worker looks it up from the organization directory
* *"Who manages the Marketing worker?"* → The worker checks the org structure

This means your workers understand the team context — they know who to reference, who to CC, and how the organization is structured.

## Co-Managers: Sharing Worker Management

Organizations let team members *interact* with shared workers. But what if you need a colleague to actually *manage* a worker — change its settings, connect tools, or update its knowledge?

That's what [Co-Managers](/guides/co-managers) are for. You can give up to 2 trusted colleagues manager-level access to any of your workers, without giving up ownership.

  Share management access to your workers with trusted colleagues
</Card>

## Switching Between Organizations

You can be part of multiple organizations at the same time. Use the **Organizations** section in the sidebar to move between them.

Each organization has its own workspace, workers, and settings — all accessible from one account.
