Members

The Members tab is where you invite people to collaborate on your project and manage who has access. Inviting and removing members belongs to the owner — or to anyone whose role carries the Invite / Change roles permission.

Each person you invite gets a role, which decides what they can actually do once they’re in — see Roles & Permissions. New invitations default to Contributor.

Inviting a collaborator

1. Type the person’s email into the invite field.
2. Pick the role they should get — a built-in one or your own. Leave it as it is for Contributor, the default.
3. Optionally, add Credits — AI credits from your balance that are theirs as soon as they sign in, so they can start building without buying any. Only the project owner can attach credits.
4. Click Invite.

What happens next depends on whether they already use ESTAGE:

• They have an ESTAGE account → they’re added immediately.
• They don’t → Genesis emails them a sign-up invitation.

Until they accept, they appear in the list with a Pending badge. You can Resend the invitation at any time.

The access list

The list shows everyone with access — the owner, active members, and pending invites:

Column	Shows
Member	Avatar, name, and email
Role	Owner, the member’s role, or Pending — changeable here at any time
Via	If access is inherited from a folder, the folder name

Actions

• Pending invites — Resend or Gift credits.
• Active members — Change role, Gift credits or Remove.
• Folder-inherited members — read-only here; manage them from the folder instead.
• Yourself (if you’re not the owner) — Leave project.

Gifting credits

Click Gift credits on a member to send them AI credits from your balance. Enter an amount and confirm — useful when a collaborator needs to run AI builds on the project.

Caution

Credits move the moment the invite is sent, to the account behind that email. Cancelling the invite doesn’t bring them back — so check the address first. If credits went to a mistyped address, contact support.

Removing or leaving

Removing a member, cancelling an invite, or leaving a project all show a confirmation dialog first. Removing someone revokes their access immediately; their work on the project stays.

Narrowing what a member can reach

Access is per-capability and enforced on the server, not merely hidden in the interface: publishing, each Settings tab, the Dedicated Cloud and server, blog content, funnels, and access management itself are separate permissions. See Roles & Permissions.
