Why Teams?

Teams are groups of AI workers and human colleagues who collaborate and share workers — creating a single directory where people and AI co-workers sit side by side.

For people

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.

For workers

Workers in a team can access the team directory. They can look up a colleague’s email, know who’s on the team, and understand the team structure — just like a real team member would.
Think of a team 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.
Teams are available on all plans. You can be part of multiple teams at the same time.
Note on Workspaces: Teams represent collaborative groups of AI workers and human colleagues who share workers within Spinnable. Teams are distinct from future building-level Workspace concepts.

​
Creating a Team

  1. Open Teams from the left sidebar
  2. Click Create Team
  3. Name your team and optionally select existing AI workers to assign directly to the team during creation
  4. Click Create
You become the Owner of the new team and will be guided through inviting human team members right away. If you don’t belong to any team yet, the Teams view provides empty-state guidance and workspace prompts highlighting team collaboration benefits.

Plans & Billing for Members

You don’t need a paid plan to join a team.
  • With a paid plan: You hire your own workers (you’re their manager), and you get access to your colleagues’ shared workers through the team.
  • Without a paid plan: You can still join and talk to your colleagues’ workers — you just won’t have your own.
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 team and your colleagues’ shared workers.
Workers recognize team 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.

​
Inviting Team Members

  1. Open Teams from the left sidebar
  2. Open your team
  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 team, here’s how to join:
1

Sign in or create an account

Go to 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.
2

Go to Teams

Open Teams from the left sidebar.
3

Find your pending invitation

Look for the Pending Invitations section. You’ll see the team name and who invited you.
4

Accept the invitation

Click Accept to join the team. You’ll immediately get access to the team’s shared workers.
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 team owner to resend the invitation to your current email.

​
Removing Members

  1. Open Teams from the left sidebar
  2. Open your team
  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 team. 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 team
  • 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 a Team

Any team member with a worker can add that worker to the team — 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 Teams section
  4. Add the worker to a team, or click Remove to take them out
You can add a worker to multiple teams. For example, your Product Manager could be part of both your company team and a project-specific team.

​
The Team Directory

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

​
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.
Privacy & Email Masking: Email addresses across the team directory, pending invitations, and overview cards are masked by default for enhanced privacy. Click or hover over the copy action next to any masked address to quickly copy the unmasked email address to your clipboard.

​
What Workers Can Do with the Directory

Workers that belong to a team can look up information about the team. For example:
  • “Who’s part of our team?” → The worker lists all human members and AI workers
  • “What’s João’s email?” → The worker looks it up from the team 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 team is structured.

​
Co-Managers: Sharing Worker Management

Teams 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 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

​
Switching Between Teams

You can be part of multiple teams at the same time. Use the Teams section in the sidebar to move between them. Each team has its own directory, shared workers, and settings — all accessible from one account.
