What's included in Litmaps Teams?
When you sign up for a Litmaps Team, you grant yourself and all other team members the premium version of Litmaps (Litmaps Pro), as well as collaborative features.
Here's what you can expect when you sign up as a Team:
Litmaps Pro for all members
Shared Workspaces
Collaborating on shared Collections, Maps, etc.
Member control: Invite who you want to your Team
Privilege control: Decide which team members can view and/or edit
Once you set up your Team account, you can add members and control their access. Teams operate on a specific number of seats, so purchase as many seats as there are members on your team.
How to separate shared work from individual work?
Workspaces lets you easily separate your collaborative work from your personal pursuits. All your searches, papers and maps are saved to a specific Workspace.
You can keep your projects organized by creating new Workspaces. To create a Workspace:
Click on "Default Workspace" at the top right
Click "Create a New Workspace"
Name your Workspace and press "Done"
Your Maps and articles are saved to the Workspace they are in. You can move articles and Maps between Workspaces by using the "Add to" button on the Maps or Tags.
Can I change the number of members on my Team?
Yes, you can update your Team subscription any time.
To change how many people are on your team simply:
Click on your profile at the bottom left
Click "Subscriptions"
Select the Team you'd like to update, and click "Edit subscription"
Change the number of seats
Click "Update Subscription"
If you do this on an Annual plan, you'll be credited the correct refund amount. This credit will then automatically be applied to the next purchase (so, if you increase the number of seats later, or the next time the annual subscription renews).
If you do this on a Monthly subscription, then you simply pay for the number of seats you'd like each month.
How to delete a Litmaps Team
To delete your Team:
Click on the gear icon next to your Team name
Click the three-dot option
Click "Delete Team"
Deleting the Team won't cancel your subscription. You will need to cancel your subscription separately.
