# Members and roles

Everyone in your <Term id="workspace">workspace</Term> is a member, and each member's <Term id="roles">role</Term> decides what they can change. Manage members in <AppLink to="settings.members" />.

## Roles [#roles]

| Role | Who has it | What they can do |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Owner** | The person who created the workspace. There is one. | Everything an Admin can do, plus remove members and delete or hand over the workspace. |
| **Admin** | Everyone who joins by invitation. | Invite people, change workspace settings, manage plans, credits and billing, create <Term id="api-key">API keys</Term>, connect GitHub and take <Term id="agent">agents</Term> live. |
| **Member** | People given limited access. | Work in the projects and data they are given. Admin-only actions show a note such as "Only admins can change these." |

<Callout type="info" title="Invited people join as Admin">
  The invitation says so: "They join as an admin once they accept the email." To limit what someone sees, use [Data access](/docs/data/data-access) and [project roles](/docs/projects/settings).
</Callout>

The member list shows **Name**, **Email**, **Role**, **Status** and **Joined**.

## Seats [#seats]

A seat is one person in the workspace, you included. The Members page shows seats included and in use.

| You see | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| "Your trial includes ... seats. Start Pro to invite people." | On the Free Trial you cannot invite more people. Select **See plans**. |
| "Each extra person is an add-on..." | Extra seats are paid from credits now and at every renewal until the person leaves. |
| "Every seat your plan allows is taken." | Select **Contact us** for more seats. |

<Callout type="warn" title="Extra seats cost credits every month">
  An extra seat is charged when you invite, then at every renewal while the person stays. See [Credits, usage and limits](/docs/workspace/credits).
</Callout>

You can also add seats from **Add seats** in <AppLink to="settings.usage" />.

## Manage invitations [#manage-invitations]

On a row with the status **Invited**:

- **Resend** sends the invite email again.
- **Revoke** cancels the invite. You can invite them again later.

## Remove a member [#remove-a-member]

<Callout type="error" title="Removal is immediate">
  Only the Owner can remove a member. They lose access right away and can be invited again later.

Select **Remove** on an **Active** row, then confirm. You cannot remove yourself here; to leave, see [Your account and security](/docs/workspace/account).
