# Members and teams

> Manage team members, roles, and project access in Orq.ai. Configure Admin, Developer, and Researcher roles and organize members into teams.

Orq.ai lets you manage roles and permissions within your workspace using Members and Teams. This enables you to build a granular access model that fits your organization.

* Each employee can be invited as a **Member**
* A **Member** has one of three roles: **Admin**, **Developer**, or **Researcher**
* Members can be grouped into **Teams**
* **Teams** are assigned access to [Projects](/docs/projects/overview)

## Members

### Adding a Member

<Info>
  On the **Growth** plan, you must have an available seat before inviting a new member. Manage your seats from **Organization → Billing**. See [Seats](/docs/administer/billing-usage#seats) for details.
</Info>

To create a member, go to **Organizations → Members** and select **Add Member**.

<Frame caption="Enter the member's email, role, and team. These can all be updated later.">

Each member is assigned one of three roles:

| Role           | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Admin**      | Complete access across all platform features, including user management, workspace settings, model configurations, and [Billing](/docs/administer/billing-usage).                                                                                                                     |
| **Developer**  | Technical access to all essential features, including the ability to deploy changes within [Deployment](/docs/deployments/overview). Developers cannot manage models, billing, or users.                                                                                              |
| **Researcher** | Full access to [Playground](/docs/playground/overview) and [Experiments](/docs/experiments/overview), but limited access to [Deployments](/docs/deployments/overview) and [Agents](/docs/agents/build). Researchers can review and annotate logs but cannot modify or deploy changes. |

<Frame caption="You can assign roles to members as they are created or edited.">

## Teams

Teams let you group members and assign them to [Projects](/docs/projects/overview). Members use their own role within each team's projects.

This lets you model access flexibly, for example:

* **Developers** can belong to separate teams, sharing projects or working on independent ones.
* A **Researcher** can be assigned to multiple teams, contributing across several deployments.

<Frame caption="You can easily add projects to existing teams, letting teammates access new projects immediately.">
