Workspaces ​

Up to this point, this documentation has covered the structure of a project and the tools used to build and manage it. This section introduces the broader framework through which teams organize their work and collaborate on shared projects: the workspace.

What workspaces are ​

A workspace serves as a collaborative environment where users can create, manage, and share projects with their team.

Users can create multiple workspaces, invite members, and assign them specific roles. These roles determine the level of access and permissions members have within the workspace, including control over its projects and configuration.

Each workspace operates independently and maintains its own set of projects, members, settings, billing information, and API keys.

Workspace types ​

There are three types of workspaces in Arcweave: Basic, Pro, and Team. A single user account can be associated with any number or combination of these workspace types.

Workspace type comparison ​

While all workspace types offer core collaboration features, there are important differences in project limits, item capacity, and billing behavior:

  • Project limits: Basic workspaces support up to 3 projects. Pro and Team workspaces allow unlimited projects.

ℹ️ If a Pro or Team workspace is downgraded to Basic, it keeps all existing projects, but cannot add new ones if the limit is exceeded.

  • Item limits: Each project in a Basic workspace is capped at 200 items. Pro and Team workspaces remove this restriction, supporting projects of any size.

ℹ️ The 200-item limit in Basic workspaces only applies to elements, jumpers, branches, components, and comments. Connections, notes, assets, and variables are excluded from this limit.

ℹ️ On downgrade to Basic, existing projects keep their items—even if they exceed the limit—but cannot grow beyond 200.

  • API access: Only Team workspaces have access to Arcweave's web API.

  • Custom roles: Only Team workspaces allow creation of custom roles.

  • Members and collaboration: All workspace types support unlimited members.

✅ In Basic workspaces, members can be added at no cost. In Pro and Team workspaces, adding or removing members affects billing, since each seat is paid.

These differences are designed to help individuals and teams scale their use of Arcweave—from lightweight solo work to complex, multi-member collaboration—without sacrificing flexibility or continuity.

Workspace sections ​

Each workspace includes the following sections:

  • Projects: View and manage all projects within the workspace.
  • People: Manage members, guests, and invitations to join the workspace.
  • Roles: See available roles and their permissions. Team workspaces can create custom roles.
  • Settings: Configure the workspace’s name, icon, billing email, and options to upgrade or delete it.
  • Billing: Set up invoicing, review billing history, and monitor detailed usage.
  • API: Access and manage the workspace’s API keys for external integrations.

Note: Some of the above sections may be hidden from non-owners of the workspace.

In addition, the workspace list (located at the top left of the workspace window) lets you switch between your workspaces or create new ones.
