Manage team member roles

Who has access?
- Grammarly Business and Grammarly for Education admins

Every team member using Grammarly Business or Grammarly for Education is assigned one of three roles: admin, account manager, or user. In Grammarly Business teams on the Enterprise Tier, team members with the user role can also be granted group manager permissions.

Roles

The user role is for the end-users of a Grammarly Business or Grammarly for Education subscription. Users will receive Grammarly’s full range of writing suggestions and have limited view-only access to account analytics. This role is assigned by default when team members join a subscription.

The user role with group manager permissions is designed for team members who need to manage and maintain aspects of their specific team's product usage. This includes viewing analytics as well as managing style rules and other writing configurations for their team. Team members with group manager permissions can manage the settings only for the teams they are specifically assigned to as group managers. User role with group manager permissions might be suitable for managers or team leaders. You can grant group manager permissions to multiple team members with the user role.

Note: The group manager permissions are available only to Grammarly Business customers on the Enterprise Tier. To learn more, please see this article: Group manager permissions for team members

The account manager role is designed for team members who want to manage and maintain aspects of their organization’s subscription related to product usage. This includes viewing analytics as well as managing style guides and other writing configurations for multiple teams or across the whole organization. Team members with the account manager role might be department heads or managers. You can assign the account manager role to multiple team members.

The admin role is designed for team members who need full control over all aspects of the team’s subscription. Admins have access to everything available under the account manager or group manager roles, plus they can manage IT configurations (including single sign-on) and subscription details for billing purposes. Team members with the admin role might be founders and executives, senior leadership, or someone from the IT department who provisions licenses or handles account administration. You can assign the admin role to multiple team members.

Permissions

Below is the list of permissions for each role.

Note: The group manager permissions apply only to the teams the group managers are specifically assigned to manage. To learn more, please see this article: Group manager permissions for team members
