You need an admin role to manage members. Open Settings from your profile menu in the bottom-left of the sidebar (or press ⌘ ,), then go to Members under the Organization group. If you don’t see it, ask an admin at your firm.

Need to change someone’s role or remove an active member? Those aren’t self-serve in the app yet — use Request to add users to describe the change, or contact support@metal.ai.
Create a placeholder user
Placeholder users are lightweight records without login access — useful for representing a person on deals or teams before they have an account. They can be promoted to full members later.1

Enter their details
In the Add Placeholder User dialog, enter a Name and Email.

Understand the member list
The Members page groups people into tabs:
Roles (for example Member, Power, Admin, Owner) are shown for reference — see Roles & permissions.

Open Teams
Go to Settings → Teams (under the Organization group).
2
Create a team
Click Create Team. In the Add a Team dialog, enter a Name and optionally Industries and Sectors, then click Create.
3
