Admins, members, guests
There are several profiles in a Claap workspace:
Admins: The only people in your team who can add new members and edit workspace settings. If you create a workspace, you're automatically an admin, and can add more people as fellow admins, members, or guests.
Members: People on your team who can create and edit topics and record and edit claaps. They can’t edit workspace settings nor add members, but they can invite guests to specific claaps or topics.
Guests: People external to your team who you want to work with on specific subjects. They can be invited to individual topics or claaps, but not an entire workspace. They can comment and interact on videos.
