Understanding User Roles & Permissions

Who this is for: Owners, Admins, and anyone managing users

Overview

Law Cyborg uses three permission levels — Owner, Admin, and User — so you can control who can manage billing, organisation settings, and licenses versus who simply uses the research tools. Understanding these roles helps you set up your team correctly before inviting members.

The three permission levels

Role	Who	What they can do
Owner	Original account creator (one per organisation)	Full control including billing, subscriptions, and organisation‑wide settings
Admin	Designated by Owner	Manage users and licenses; cannot change billing or organisation‑wide settings
