# Roles
Every member of a Zed organization is assigned a role that determines
what they can access and configure.
## Role Types {#roles}
Every member of an organization is assigned one of three roles:
| Role | Description |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Owner** | Full control, including billing and ownership transfer |
| **Admin** | Full control, except billing |
| **Member** | Standard access, no privileged actions |
### Owner {#role-owner}
An owner has full control over the organization, including:
- Invite and remove members
- Assign and change member roles
- Manage billing, payment methods, and invoices
- Configure data-sharing policies
- Disable Zed's collaborative features
- Control whether members can use Zed-hosted models and Zed's edit predictions
- Transfer ownership to another member
### Admin {#role-admin}
Admins have the same capabilities as the Owner, except they cannot:
- Access or modify billing settings
- Transfer organization ownership
This role is suited for team leads or managers who handle day-to-day
member access without needing visibility into payment details.
### Member {#role-member}
Members have standard access to Zed. They cannot access billing or
organization settings.
## Managing User Roles {#managing-users}
Owners and Admins can manage organization members from the Zed
dashboard within the Members page.
### Inviting Members {#inviting-members}
1. On the Members page, select **+ Invite Member**.
2. Enter the member's company email address and choose a role.
3. The invitee receives an email with instructions to join. After
accepting, they authenticate via GitHub.
### Changing a Member's Role {#changing-roles}
1. On the Members page, find the member. You can filter by role or
search by name.
2. Open the three-dot menu and select a new role.
### Removing a Member {#removing-members}
1. On the Members page, find the member.
2. Select **Remove** and confirm.
Removing a member removes their access to organization settings and any organization-managed features. They can continue using Zed on their own.
