Members have a deliberately narrow workspace: they see only the Dashboard (bookings only), Meetings, Availability, Integrations (their own calendar and Zoom), and Settings. The Events, Leads, and SalesPads screens are hidden from them entirely.

There is exactly one Owner per team (the person who created it). Everyone else is an Admin or a Member.

Role Details

Owner Capabilities

The Owner can:

  • Access all features and data

  • Manage billing and subscription

  • Invite, remove, and change the role of any team member

  • Delete the account

Limitations:

  • Only one owner per account — the person who created the team

  • Cannot be demoted, and ownership can't currently be reassigned in-app

Admin Capabilities

Admins have full operational access — everything except managing the team and billing.

Admins can:

  • Create and manage team events

  • View and act on all leads, meetings, and events across the team

  • Build and manage all of the team's salespads

  • Connect CRM, tracking, and automation integrations

  • Connect their own Google Calendar, Outlook, and Zoom accounts

  • Export data

Cannot:

  • Invite, remove, or change the role of team members

  • Access billing

  • Delete the account

Member Capabilities

Members can:

  • View their own meetings — the bookings landed on their calendar

  • See a bookings-only dashboard

  • Reschedule and cancel their own meetings

  • Set their personal availability

  • Connect their own Google Calendar, Outlook, and Zoom accounts

Cannot:

  • Access the Events, Leads, or SalesPads screens

  • View other members' data

Transferring Ownership

Ownership is currently fixed to the person who created the team and can't be reassigned from within the app. If you need to change the owner (for example, the original owner has left), contact support and we'll help you transfer it.

Best Practices

Principle of Least Privilege

  • Give minimum necessary access

  • Start as Member, promote as needed

  • Review roles periodically

Admin Selection

  • Choose trustworthy team leads

  • Limit number of admins

  • Ensure admin coverage (not just one admin)

Member Management

  • Regular team members as Members

  • Promote for specific needs

  • Document why someone has admin access

Security Considerations

  • Owners should enable 2FA

  • Review who has billing access

  • Audit role changes periodically

Troubleshooting

Permission Denied Errors

  • Verify user's current role

  • Have an admin perform the action if needed

Role Not Updating

  • Verify change was saved

Can't Remove Owner

  • The owner cannot be removed or demoted

  • Reassigning ownership isn't available in-app yet — contact support
