Organisation Overview

Organisation features require the Team or Enterprise plan.
What is an Organisation?
An Organisation is a shared The Archiver account that belongs to a team — a company, institution, research group, or archive. When you're part of an Organisation:
- All members share the same archive — the same Accessions, Fonds, Dossiers, and files
- Members have different permission levels (Admin, General, or Viewer)
- Usage limits and storage are shared across the organisation
