Spaces
Shared work areas where assistants live, members collaborate, and a security classification applies.
A Space is a shared work area — a room for a team, a department or a project. Assistants live in Spaces and are reached through them, members collaborate inside them, roles decide what each member may do, and a security classification governs which models and tools can be used there.
What a Space is
Section titled “What a Space is”Think of a Space as a folder that holds everything a group of people share: their assistants, the knowledge those assistants draw on, and the people who can reach any of it. Create one Space per team, department, or project — whatever grouping matches how your organization actually works. See How to structure Spaces for concrete strategies.
Assistants live in Spaces
Section titled “Assistants live in Spaces”Every assistant — other than each person’s personal assistant — belongs to exactly one Space. That Space decides who can reach the assistant, which models it may use, and who can change its configuration. See Assistants in Spaces.
Members and roles
Section titled “Members and roles”People join a Space as members, each with one of three roles: Space Admin, Space Editor, or Space Viewer. The role decides what they can do inside that Space specifically. See Members and Roles in Spaces.
Security classification
Section titled “Security classification”Every Space carries a security classification, which restricts which models and tools may be used inside it based on how sensitive the data there is. See Security classification.
Public and private Spaces
Section titled “Public and private Spaces”A public Space is visible to everyone in your organization; a private one is visible only to its invited members. See Sharing and access in Spaces for the full detail.
Creating a Space
Section titled “Creating a Space”- Open the space picker near the top of the sidebar.
- Click Create new space.
- Give it a name. You can invite members and create assistants immediately afterward.
If you don’t see an option to create a Space, your organization may restrict who can create one — check with your administrator.
