Organizations explained

The difference between your personal vault and a shared team organization.

3 min read · Updated July 13, 2026


In Stoatify, everything belongs to an organization: the boundary that owns documents and members. On your first sign-in a private personal organization is created just for you. To collaborate, you create or join a team organization where documents are shared.

How organizations work

  • You can belong to several organizations and switch between them instantly, from the switcher in the sidebar.
  • Each org has its own documents, members, roles, and settings. Switching changes everything you see.
  • Your personal org stays private: it's a separate space that's never shared, no matter how many teams you join.

Create a team

Anyone can create a team org with Create organization, which makes you its Owner. Inside a team, documents are shared with the organization. Then invite your team.

Good to know

Stoatify currently provides the built-in Owner, Admin, and Member roles. See Plans and storage limits for current plan limits.

Tip

The org you're in rides with every action, so glance at the switcher before uploading if you keep work and personal vaults separate.
