Organizations in LangMart enable teams to collaborate on AI model access, share resources, and manage usage centrally.
What are Organizations?
An organization is a workspace where multiple users can work together with shared access to AI models. Organizations provide:
- Shared Model Access: All members can access models configured for the organization
- Centralized Billing: Organizations can fund model usage for their members
- Usage Tracking: Monitor and control how team members use AI models
- Role-Based Permissions: Control who can manage settings, invite members, and view billing
Organization Types
LangMart supports two main organization types based on how they use the platform:
Consumer Organizations
For teams that use AI models together
- Internal teams, departments, or projects
- Members collaborate on shared AI resources
- Focus on consuming AI services
- Typical size: 5-50 members
Examples: Engineering teams, research groups, startup teams
Inference Providers
For organizations that provide AI services to their members
- Cloud providers, enterprise IT, research institutions
- Members are customers/users who consume services
- Focus on providing and managing AI access
- Can scale to hundreds or thousands of members
Examples: GPU cloud providers, university IT departments, enterprise AI platforms
