Teams and roles

The Team plan includes real-time collaboration on shared canvases, reusable Space templates, and a shared credit pool and Library. The team owner pays for the team.

Work together on the same canvas

Open Share in the top-right corner of a work, choose your Team, save, and copy the work link. Only the work’s creator can change its sharing. Members who have accepted their invitations can open that same work from the link or the Sessions list.

See who is editing each node while changes to the graph, drafts and results appear live. Members can edit different nodes at the same time; one editor at a time can edit each whole node, including all its content versions. Viewing does not reserve a node, and everyone keeps their own zoom and position. Communicate and divide the work yourselves; sharing adds no assignments or approval steps.

Sharing a work opens that work and its referenced media, not the creator’s whole Library or personal Spaces. A Space template gives each member an independent copy; use a shared work to collaborate on the same canvas. Same-account windows also coordinate edits, without requiring a Team plan. Online counts appear only when another editor is present; when alone, Team users keep the Share entry.

Seats, credits, and payment

Team is $149/month and includes 2 editor seats, 100,000 shared credits every month and a 100 GiB / 50,000-file shared Library. Each additional editor is $25/month and adds 20,000 credits to the pool. Every member spends from the shared pool — there are no per-person balances inside a team. Owners and admins can manage seats, buy team credit packs, and open the billing portal. The team owner pays for the subscription and every team credit pack, including purchases initiated by an admin.

Team is billed monthly. Monthly credits refresh each billing month and don't roll over; seat changes are prorated immediately. For a burst of work, top up with a team credit pack.

Tip: buy team credit packs from Settings → Billing, then choose the team. Packs bought from your personal Settings → Billing always top up your own balance, never the team pool.

Personal vs team context

Your active Personal or Team context selects the default credit pool. A shared work always uses the Team selected for that work for new runs and new media, even if an editor switches their own context. Sharing settings, not the context switcher, determine who can access that work.

If a team's shared pool runs dry, members are asked to have an owner or admin top it up.

Roles

Every team has exactly one owner and any number of admins and members. Capabilities nest: an owner can do everything an admin can, and an admin everything a member can.

Owner

One per team. The owner manages who the admins are (promote a member to admin, or demote one back), and is the only role that can transfer ownership or cancel the team. The owner is the team's billing identity — the invoice and payment responsibility always remain theirs, including when an admin initiates a billing action.

Admin

The owner's deputies for day-to-day running: admins invite and remove members, edit the team, manage Space templates, and manage billing seats, credit packs, and the portal. Admins can't manage the admin set, cancel the team, or transfer ownership, and they never become the invoice's payer.

Member

Members can edit works shared with the team, see who is editing each node, use the shared credit pool, and fork published Space templates into independent copies.

Transferring ownership

An owner can transfer a team only when it has no live trial, open checkout, or unterminated subscription. If a subscription exists — including one scheduled to cancel at period end — cancel it in Billing and wait until it actually ends. Complete an open checkout or wait for it to expire. IceFold does not move the old owner's payment method, customer portal or invoices to another account.

After the transfer, the new person becomes the owner and pays for future purchases. The previous owner stays on as an admin, keeping member and billing management access but losing control of admins, team cancellation and ownership transfers.
