# How teams and organisations fit together
Source: https://docs.aden.space/docs/help/start-here/onboarding/teams-and-organisations

Understand the difference between you, your teams and organisations, and who pays for what.
Aden is built from a few pieces. Knowing them makes everything else easier.

* **You**: your login and profile. You never hold a plan or own music directly.
* **A team**: your workspace for an artist, band or project. Every track, album, session and contact lives in a team. Only teams have a plan.
* **An organisation**: a label, publisher, agency, studio, collecting society or writers camp. It works with artist teams rather than holding its own tracks.
* **A session**: a studio day or writing session that gathers people, from one team or many.

## How you connect to an organisation [#how-you-connect-to-an-organisation]

* **Through your team.** Most artists. A label links to your team, by invite or after your team asks to join. They can help with your team's work, and you stay a member of your own team.
* **Directly.** If you run the label, publisher or camp, you are a member of the organisation itself. Owners and admins also reach the teams it manages.

You can be both: running one organisation while another manages your artist team.

## Many teams, one account [#many-teams-one-account]

You can be in one team or many: your own project, a side project, a team your label set up. Switch between them from the switcher at the top of the sidebar.

## Your default team [#your-default-team]

When you open something that needs a team and none is picked, Aden opens your default team. Your first team is the default to start with. To change it, open that team's settings and use **Default team** at the top. A star marks your default in the switcher.

## Who pays [#who-pays]

There are no personal plans. A team's plan unlocks paid features, and it can be paid by you, granted by Aden, or covered by your organisation. You can create up to two free teams.
