The right access for every person
Invite teammates, assign roles, and control who sees what — simple permissions that scale.
Invite by email. It shows as pending, and billing only starts once it is accepted.
Simple roles that actually make sense
Three clear roles — Owner, Admin, Member — with granular project-level access. No confusing permission matrices or enterprise jargon.
Owner / Admin / Member roles
Owner has full control including billing and workspace deletion. Admin manages everything except billing. Member sees only their assigned projects.
Project-level access
Members only see projects they are explicitly added to. No accidental exposure of sensitive work — access is opt-in, not opt-out.
Workspace permissions
Fine-grained workspace permissions control who can create projects, manage members, change branding, access AI features, and more.
Permission inheritance
Project permissions inherit from workspace roles. Admins automatically get full access to all projects. Members get exactly what they are assigned.
Get people in fast, safely
Invite by email, share a link, or add in bulk. Invitations expire automatically and billing only starts when someone accepts.
Email invitations
Send a workspace invitation to any email address. The invitee gets a branded email with a one-click accept link. Validated against workspace membership to prevent duplicates.
Invite links
Generate a shareable invite link for your workspace. Perfect for onboarding new hires or sharing in a team channel.
Bulk invites
Add multiple email addresses at once. Each gets a separate invitation with independent accept/expire tracking.
Expiring invitations
Invitations expire automatically after a set period. Pending invites are visible in the team view so nothing slips through the cracks.
Know who is doing what
See who is online, track activity, reassign work when someone leaves, and manage roles — all from one place.
Online presence
See who is online right now with live presence indicators. Powered by Pusher presence channels — updates in real time across web, desktop, and mobile.
Activity tracking
See when each member was last active. Helpful for async teams to know who has been around recently and who might be away.
Remove & transfer
When someone leaves, their tasks stay assigned and their files remain accessible. Remove a member cleanly without losing any work.
Role assignment
Change a member's role at any time. Promote a member to admin, or downgrade if responsibilities change. Permission changes take effect immediately.
Pay for who actually joins
Billing is tied to accepted members, not invitations. See usage at a glance, manage seats, and stay within your plan limits.
Per-user billing
You are billed per active member, not per invitation sent. Billing starts when someone accepts their invite and adjusts automatically when members leave.
Plan-based user limits
Each plan has a maximum number of members. The system enforces limits at invite-accept time — no surprise overages or hidden charges.
Usage dashboard
See how many members, projects, and storage you are using at a glance. Compare against your plan limits to know when it is time to upgrade.
Seat management
Add or remove seats as your team grows. Stripe billing updates automatically — no manual invoicing or support tickets needed.
What you won't need anymore
Workel Team replaces standalone access management tools. Here's what your team can drop — and what you'll save.
Auth0
$23/mo for team management
Okta

Manual spreadsheet tracking
Free (but painful)
Team connects to everything in Workel
Because team management is built into the same workspace as your projects, chat, and files — permissions flow everywhere automatically.
Roles control what members see across all features
A member's role determines their access to projects, chat channels, files, calendar events, and AI features — all from one setting.
Invitations sync with billing automatically
When a member accepts an invite, billing adjusts. When they leave, it adjusts back. No manual seat management or support tickets.
Member changes broadcast in real-time
When someone joins or leaves, every connected client updates instantly. Presence indicators, project lists, and permissions refresh automatically.
Team visible from the workspace sidebar
The team page lives in the main navigation alongside projects, chat, and files. See who is online, who is away, and what role they have — always one click away.
Questions about Team Straight answers, before you start.
Three: owner, admin and member. The owner handles billing and can delete the workspace. Admins can manage people and settings and open every project. Members work in the projects they're added to and can start new ones.
Send an email invite, one person at a time, or share an invite link. Email invites last 7 days. A link lasts from 1 to 30 days, and you can cap how many people use it.
Up to 2, you included, and everyone you invite joins as a member: Free has no Team page or role changes. Pro, Max and Team have no limit on people.
There's no guest role yet. Invite them as a member instead: members see only the projects you add them to, plus team-wide posts, and can message anyone in the workspace. Each one counts as a person on your plan.
When you remove someone, they're taken off the tasks they were assigned to. The tasks, events and docs they made stay in the workspace, and their chat messages stay where they are.
You can sign up and sign in with Google or with your email. Single sign-on (SAML) isn't available yet.
