Creating Your Team

Updated over 2 weeks ago

This guide walks you through the complete process of creating your first team on meeting.ai. Creating a team transforms how your organization uses meeting.ai by centralizing management and billing for multiple users.

Before You Begin

Prerequisites

  • Personal Account Required: You must have an active meeting.ai Personal Account

  • Web Access: Team creation is only available through our web application (not mobile apps)

  • Payment Method: Have a credit card ready for team billing setup

  • Team Size: Plan for at least 2 seats (minimum requirement)

Important: Permanent Account Conversion

โš ๏ธ Creating a team permanently converts your Personal Account to a Team Account. This change is irreversible.

When you create a team:

  • Your account type changes permanently from Personal to Team

  • You become the team administrator automatically

  • All your existing meetings become part of the team's data

  • You cannot revert to a Personal Account later

Step-by-Step Team Creation Process

Step 1: Access Team Creation

  1. Log in to your meeting.ai account on the web application

  2. Navigate to your account settings or dashboard

  3. Look for the "Create Team" or "Set up your team" option

  4. Click to begin the team creation process

Step 2: Cancel Existing Personal Subscription (If Applicable)

If you have an active personal subscription:

  • Web Subscriptions: The system will automatically cancel your subscription

  • Mobile Subscriptions (iOS/Android): You must manually cancel through your app store

  • Important: No refunds will be issued, but your remaining credits will transfer to your Team Account

Step 3: Configure Your Team

Team Name

  • Choose a clear, professional name for your team

  • This name will be visible to all team members

  • Consider using your company or department name

Select Subscription Package

You'll need to choose a uniform subscription tier for all team members:

  • All team members must have the same subscription level

  • Options and tiers are similar to personal subscription package

  • Choose based on your team's meeting needs and budget

  • Remember: You cannot mix different subscription levels within one team

Determine Initial Seat Count

  • Minimum: 2 seats required

  • No Maximum: Purchase as many seats as needed

  • Calculation: Total cost = Number of seats ร— Package price

  • Example: 5 seats ร— $40/month = $200/month total

Step 4: Set Up Billing

Payment Method

  • You will be directed to the payment page

  • Input your card information

  • This card will be charged for all team expenses:

    • Monthly subscription fees for all seats

    • Any additional credit purchases

    • Automatic credit auto-recharge (if enabled)

Billing Information

  • Provide your company's billing details

  • Enter the billing address associated with your payment method

  • Specify where invoices should be sent

Payment Confirmation

  • Review your order summary:

    • Team name

    • Subscription package selected

    • Number of seats

    • Total monthly cost

  • Confirm and process your first payment

Step 5: Invite Your Team Member

Once you confirm your billing, you will be prompted to invite your team members.

You can access the team member invitation page later in Manage Team page.

Step 6: Complete Team Creation

After above steps are completed:

  1. The system creates your team

  2. Your Personal Account converts to a Team Account

  3. You become the primary team administrator

  4. Your Manage Team page becomes available

After Creating Your Team

Immediate Next Steps

  1. Access Manage Team page: Explore your new team management interface

  2. Invite Team Members: Start assigning your colleagues to the purchased seat

  3. Configure Settings: Set up credit overcharge preferences and other policies

  4. Allocate Credits: Ensure team members have credits for their meetings

Your New Admin Privileges

As the team creator, you now have:

  • Billing Control: Manage all payments and subscriptions

  • Member Management: Invite, suspend, and manage team members

  • Credit Management: Purchase and transfer credits

  • Team Settings: Configure team-wide policies and preferences

  • Usage Monitoring: View team activity and credit consumption

What Your Team Members Experience

When you invite team members:

  • They receive an email invitation

  • Upon acceptance, their accounts convert to Team Accounts (if they had Personal Accounts)

  • They automatically receive the team's subscription package

  • They can start using meeting.ai under your team's billing

Best Practices

Planning Your Team Structure

  • Size Appropriately: Start with the number of seats you need now, you can always add more

  • Choose the Right Package: Select a subscription tier that meets your team's typical usage

  • Budget Considerations: Remember the total monthly cost multiplies by seat count

Communication

  • Notify Future Members: Let colleagues know about the permanent account conversion before inviting them

  • Set Expectations: Communicate team policies about credit usage and meeting practices

  • Documentation: Keep records of team configuration and billing for accounting purposes

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  • Can't Find Team Creation Option: Ensure you're using the web application, not mobile
