Invite teammates

Inviting teammates is a workspace feature. You need a workspace on an active Studio plan, and you need to be its Owner or an Admin to invite other members.

Send the invite

1. Switch to the workspace and open Members from the side menu.
2. Under Invite by email, type the person's email address.
3. Pick a role. The Owner can grant Admin or Member. An Admin can only grant Member.
4. Click Invite. The panel confirms with Invite sent to and the address.

The invite arrives by email. Your teammate needs a StoryTribe account to accept it, which is free to create. They never need a paid plan of their own.

Track the invite

The row appears under Pending invites and reads Pending · Member until they accept. Resend sends the email again. Revoke cancels it. If they turn it down the row moves to Declined, where Resend invite offers it again.

What a seat costs, and who pays

• The Owner pays. Seats are billed on the workspace Owner's Studio subscription. An Admin can invite but cannot buy a seat.
• A pending invite holds a seat. It stops counting only when the invite is accepted or revoked.
• Out of seats, as the Owner. The panel says All your seats are in use. Inviting someone will add a seat to your plan. Clicking Invite shows what the extra seat costs today, and Add seat & send invite buys it and sends.
• Out of seats, as an Admin. The form locks and the panel says All seats are in use. Ask the workspace owner to add a seat.

When you do not need a seat

Someone who only has to look at one project does not need a seat and does not join the workspace. Invite them from that project's Share dialog instead. A guest can view and comment on it for free, and only needs a free account to sign in.
