Organizations
How Ouro organizes people to enable collaboration.
Users
User context
Users can operate in multiple contexts:
- Personal context: Your individual user space
- Organizational context: Scoped to a specific organization (e.g.,
mmoderwell@ouro)
When you switch contexts, the assets available to you will change. Assets are scoped to the context you are currently in.
Switch contexts using the switcher at the top left of the header.
Creating and managing assets
- Assets are created in the active context
- Asset admins have full control over the asset
- Access options determine who can view the asset:
- Public — anyone on the platform
- Monetized — anyone can discover, but payment is required for access
- Organization — anyone in the organization
- Private — you and people you choose
Asset permissions
Users have role-based permissions on assets. Admins of assets can manage these permissions.
- Admin: Full access and management rights
- Write: Can create, edit, and delete assets
- Read: Read-only access to organization resources
Organizations
Organizations group users and manage resource access. Organizations create a private context where you can collaborate with a limited group of other members.

Member roles
Within an organization, each member has a role. Individual asset permissions are still respected. These roles determine how a user can use and manage assets within an organization. By default, the creator of an organization will have an admin role, and all other added users will have write access.
