Organisations

Organizations are the main unit of collaboration in Storywise. They allow you to manage your projects, users, and settings in a single place.

Creating an organisation

Creating a new organisation is straightforward – just create a new one and invite your team members. Once they join, every member in the organisation can access all the projects.

Remember, you only need one license per organisation; in practice, your highest license level will apply to all users and features.

Many settings are managed at the organisation level. For example:

• AI endpoints are configured per organisation (although if you are on premises, you might set them globally for all users).
• The document library, as well as settings like hourly rates and word templates, are specific to each organisation.
• Integrations such as Jira, Figma, and Miro are all managed on an organisational basis.

Inviting External Collaborators

For more precise control over project access, you can invite individuals or even other organisations directly to your projects. When invited in this manner, external collaborators are granted a restricted view: they can only access documents that are in the “published” state. In this state, the documents are finalized and cannot be altered.

Although editing is disabled, these users can still copy the published documents and add their own data. This setup is especially beneficial when you need to gather offers or proposals from multiple companies, ensuring the integrity of your original documents while enabling external contributions. This also allows you to use Storywise as a collaborative proposal and comparison tool. You can invite your partners to view, edit and comment on your published documents, and then compare the different versions.
