How seats work in Supernova

Each team member in your workspace is assigned one seat. Seats define:

• Which parts of Supernova a member can access (Design systems, Portal, or both)
• What actions and permissions they have

Supernova offers both paid and unpaid seats. Additional permissions can be granted by assigning an admin or owner role.

Paid seats

Builder

The Builder seat is designed for product teams who use design systems but don’t create them. It’s ideal for product managers, designers, and engineers who build features in Supernova Portal using AI.

Full seat

The Full seat provides access to both Design systems and Portal. It’s intended for design system teams who create, maintain, and document design systems.

All Full seats also include Builder capabilities, such as:

• Creating projects and features
• Browsing design systems
• Using Ask AI in Portal

When assigning a Full seat, choose one of the following permission levels.

Editor

• Can create and edit design system content
• Can approve and publish documentation
• Access to all Portal features

Editors cannot access workspace or team settings unless they are made admins.

Contributor

• Can create and edit design system content
• Access to all Portal features

Contributors cannot approve or publish documentation, and cannot access workspace or team settings.

Unpaid seats

Viewer

The Viewer seat is for team members who consume design system content without editing it. Viewers can:

• View published documentation and basic design system data
• Browse the design system in Portal
• Use Ask AI and chatting in projects without prompting AI

Billing

The Billing seat is intended for finance or operations roles. Billing members can:

• Manage billing and workspace members
• View published documentation and basic design system data
• Use Browse and Ask AI in Portal

Billing members cannot chat in projects or build with AI.

Invite workspace members

Any new members you've invited will receive an email and will show up as 'Pending' in the list until they've accepted the invitation.

Resend invitation

You can see if a user hasn't accepted their invitation yet by the 'Pending' label beside their name. If a user is pending but did not receive the email, or you would like to remind them, click Send invitation again in the context menu to email them again.

Change member seat

1. In the relevant row in the Members table, hover and click their seat to open a dropdown menu.
2. Assign the desired seat.
3. The member’s seat will be updated.

Transfer ownership

To transfer ownership of a workspace, you can assign someone else owner permissions first, and then revoke owner permissions for yourself.

1. Click ••• on your row in the Members table to open the context menu.
2. Select Transfer ownership.
3. In the dialog, select which member you would like to transfer ownership to and confirm.
4. Your role will be changed to the new owner’s current role.
