Frequently asked

What's the right role count?

Most teams need 3–4 roles in practice. Use what you need from the seven built-ins.

How do I avoid burnout?

Right-size scope per role. Workers shouldn't have admin-level decisions on their plate.

Should everyone see everything?

Visibility builds trust; sensitive data needs gating. Role-based visibility is the balance.

How often should I review activity?

Weekly works for most teams. Tie it to your weekly stand-up.

What about contractor vs employee distinctions?

Two built-in roles (contractor, subcontractor) handle the common cases.

How do I let someone go cleanly?

Archive the team member — keeps their history, removes access immediately.
