# Team management

> Seats, roles, invitations and removing members.

The Team page manages who works in the workspace. Seats depend on the plan: Agency includes 3 seats, lower plans include 1, which means solo workspaces.

## Roles

1. Owner: full control, including plan changes and deletion
2. Admin: everything except plan ownership: API keys, team, white-label, tracking
3. Member: read-only reporting; settings pages show what is owners-and-admins-only

## Inviting members

Press Invite member, enter the email address and pick a role. The invitee receives an email with an acceptance link that is valid for 48 hours. Pending invitations show a Pending badge and occupy a seat until accepted or revoked.

## Managing members

1. Revoke: withdraw a pending invitation
2. Remove: take an existing member off the workspace

Removing members frees their seat immediately.

## Transferring ownership

A workspace has exactly one owner. To hand it to someone else, the owner opens the role menu next to an existing member or admin and picks Transfer ownership. After confirming, that person becomes the owner and the previous owner stays on the team as an admin. Both changes happen in one step, so the workspace is never without an owner.

1. Only the owner can transfer ownership, and only to someone who already joined the workspace (invite them first)
2. The subscription, payment method and billing email stay as they are; change them under Billing if needed
3. The step can only be undone by the new owner transferring ownership back
4. Both people get an email: the new owner learns what they took over, and the previous owner gets a confirmation. If you receive that confirmation without having transferred anything, change your password and reply to the email

Transferring is also the way out when you want to delete your account: as long as you are the only owner of a workspace that has other members, account deletion is blocked. Transfer ownership, or remove the other members, then delete your account under Account.

## Downgrade behavior

If the workspace moves to a plan without team seats, the team area switches to a blocked state that asks the owner to upgrade, and further downgrades are blocked while members remain. Remove members first when you intend to step down.

## White-label lives here too

On the Agency plan the Team page hosts the white-label card for PDF reports: logo, display name, accent color and the option to hide SEOAI branding, with a live report header preview.
