People
This section covers managing the people who use Metrognome—individual users and the organizations they belong to.
Users vs Organizations
Users are individual accounts—each person who books studios, whether they're a casual customer or a regular member.
Organizations are groups that share resources. When a company or collective wants their members to draw from a shared credit pool, you create an organization and add users as members.
Organization (optional)
└── User ← books studios, has access code
└── User
└── User
Most users operate independently. Organizations are for cases where multiple people share a budget or benefit.
When to Use Each
| Scenario | What to Create |
|---|---|
| Individual signs up to book studios | User (automatic on signup) |
| Company wants employees to share credits | Organization + add employees as members |
| Band wants to pool rehearsal budget | Organization + add band members |
| School provides student access | Organization + add students as members |
How Credits Work
Without organization:
- User has personal credit balance
- Bookings consume from personal balance
With organization:
- Organization has shared credit balance
- Member bookings consume from organization balance
- Individual members don't need personal credits
