Using Krea with a Team

Krea’s Teams feature enables collaborative usage of compute resources, flexible plan management for team members, and streamlined billing for organizations and groups.

​
What Users Can Do in Teams Mode

Create Teams: Any user can create a team to share compute resources among multiple members. Shared Compute Pool: The team owner can purchase one-time compute packs, which are available to all team members. Individual Member Plans: Team owners can assign individual paid plans (Max, Pro, Basic, Free) to specific team members, in addition to the shared pool. Workspace Switching: Use the workspace toggle (top left of the app) to switch between your personal and team accounts. Compute Consumption Logic:
  • If a team member has a plan, their usage is deducted from their individual plan first.
  • If they have no plan or exhaust their plan’s compute, usage falls back to the team’s shared compute pool.
Entitlements
  • Anyone in a team can use all Krea features as if they own a paid plan.

​
Team Member Plans & Billing

Assigning Plans
  • Only team owners/admins can assign plans to members.
  • A valid payment method must be saved for the team before assigning paid plans.
Plan Changes
  • Upgrades (e.g., Free → Pro): Take effect immediately and are billed instantly.
  • Downgrades (e.g., Pro → Basic): Scheduled for the end of the current billing period.
Downgrade credits are virtually refunded or subtracted from the next invoice/upgrade (see Stripe’s invoice pricing for details). Billing Cycle & Subscription Price:
  • The team settings page displays the current billing cycle and the upcoming subscription price.
  • All plan changes and their effects on billing are previewed before confirmation.

​
Teams UI Overview

Members Table:
  • Shows all team members, their roles (Owner, Admin, Member), and assigned plans.
  • Owners/Admins can change roles, remove members, and assign plans via dropdowns.
  • Pending invites are also listed.
Plan Management:
  • Owners can batch assign or change plans for multiple members.
  • Pending changes are previewed, showing the total amount due before confirmation.
Payment Methods:
  • Add, remove, or set default payment cards for the team.
  • A valid card is required to assign paid plans.
Subscription Details:
  • Displays next invoice date, amount, and a summary of active plans.
  • If no paid plans exist, guidance is shown on how to upgrade members.

​
Key Points

Switching Context:
  • Use the workspace toggle to move between personal and team environments.
Compute Usage:
  • Member plan compute is used first; fallback is the team’s shared pool.
Plan Assignment:
  • Requires a valid team payment method.
Billing Transparency:
  • All changes are previewed, and downgrades are credited in future invoices.
Restrictions
  • For now, a user can only belong to one team but we are planning to allow joining multiple teams in the near future.
