Personal vs team workspaces

The difference between the two types, and when to create a team.

Every workspace is either personal or team. The difference is collaboration, not capability.

Your first workspace

When you sign up, a personal workspace is created for you. Most people never need more than that.

Creating a team workspace

Go to the workspace switcher at the top of the sidebar and create a new workspace. You give it a name and choose its type:

  • Personal"For solo creators and individual brand managers."
  • Team"For agencies and teams managing a shared brand or client."

You become the owner of any workspace you create.

Once it exists, Settings → Members appears in the sidebar and you can start inviting people.

Converting between the two

You can change a workspace's type at any time in Settings → Workspace. Changing personal to team makes the Members page appear; nothing else about the workspace changes, and no data is affected.

Only the owner can change the type.

Which to choose

Choose team if anyone other than you will ever need access — a colleague, a client, a contractor. Converting later is easy, so this is not a decision to agonise over.

Choose personal if it is only ever you.

One workspace or several?

Use one workspace with several members when people are working on the same brand.

Use several workspaces when the things being managed should not see each other — separate clients, separate brands, or a second account on a platform where one workspace can only bind one.
