Guest Access & Permissions

User Permissions That Let You Collaborate Without Access Creep

When something important happens, you might need to bring more people into the room: outside counsel, a consultant, a board advisor, a leadership stakeholder who just wants the facts.

Org IQ makes that easy, with guest access, role-based permissions, and scoped visibility built for how real organizations work.

The old way

Say Goodbye to Permissions Liabilities and Trade-Offs

This outmoded user access status quo may sound familiar, where sharing your archive is either a bottleneck, or a risk.

Risk

too many people end up with too much access

Bottleneck

everything requires an admin

Instead, Org IQ presents a clean middle ground

Invite guests into your account with limited, read-only access, so you can share what matters without creating extra overhead or a security loophole.

Outside counsel reviewing a matter

Consultants supporting a leadership team

Auditors verifying communications

Executives who want visibility without operational controls

Temporary Access That Doesn't Overstay Its Welcome

Guest access is useful… until it becomes permanent by accident. Org IQ supports guest expiration, so you can grant access for a specific window, then let it shut off automatically when the work is done.

This keeps your organization from accumulating:

  • Old logins
  • Forgotten third-party access
  • "Wait, who is this person again?" accounts

And other common security liabilities

Simple by design

Clear Roles You Don't Have to Commit to Memory

Org IQ keeps permissions simple, with four user states — so instead of guessing who can do what, admins can spot and update access levels instantly.

Admin

Full access, including billing, exports, and user administration.

User

Access to Search, Reports, and Exports within granted scopes.

Guest

Limited read-only access with optional expiration.

Pending

Invited but not accepted — resend or delete anytime.

Zero invite drift

Invites You Can Easily Keep Track Of

Org IQ makes pending invites visible and manageable. Admins can:

  • Resend an invitation email
  • Delete a pending user if access is no longer needed

This matters more than it sounds, because invite drift is one of the sneakiest ways access control gets messy, stalling momentum.

Advanced access control

Scoped Visibility to Limit Overexposure

Some organizations need more than generic roles. They need selective visibility, where users can only view and manage what they're allowed to.

Org IQ supports restricted access models where:

Scoped admins & users

only see users in their assigned domain or organizational group.

Search visibility

follows the same restrictions as user access.

Editing & deletion

only applies to the users they're permitted to manage.

User edit form with restricted search scope

This is particularly valuable for teams managing sensitive data across HR, Legal, Finance, leadership, and client-facing departments.

Speaking of securing your emails… giving you full control over who sees what (and for how long) in your Org IQ archive is just one part of how we protect your comms.

Org IQ is built with security and access control woven into the platform, so you can collaborate confidently without widening access, creating bottlenecks, or losing oversight.
