# Organizations and multi-org

{% hint style="info" %}
**Available in Stratix Premium.** This surface is part of the logged-in workspace at [stratix.layerlens.ai](https://stratix.layerlens.ai). Stratix Public users can browse the catalog but cannot use this feature.
{% endhint %}

Stratix supports users belonging to **multiple organizations**. Each organization is a tenant — separate data, separate ECU balance, separate roles. A user can be a member of many.

## Org switcher

When you belong to ≥2 orgs, the top bar shows an **org switcher**. Click to flip between active orgs. The dashboard, catalog, and Settings refresh for the active org.

## Belonging to multiple orgs

You join an org via:

* **Creating** it (you're auto-added as Admin)
* **Accepting an invitation** (Admin invites you by email)

Email-domain auto-join is supported per-org if the org admin enabled it.

## Active org

At any time, exactly one org is active. The active org determines:

* What's shown in catalog views (the public catalog plus that org's private items)
* Who you appear as in audit logs
* Which ECU balance bills your runs

## Switching consequences

When you switch orgs:

* The dashboard refreshes
* In-flight queries are cancelled and re-issued against the new org
* API keys are scoped per-org; if you have an SDK terminal open, it uses the key for the org it was issued under (not the active dashboard org)

## Multi-org best practices

* **Personal account + work account** are common — Stratix supports both
* For consultants who serve many customers, a separate org per customer keeps audit clean
* Don't share a single org account across people; invite teammates instead
