# Creating an organization

> Step-by-step guide for creating and managing a Tinfoil organization

Organizations let your team share API keys, billing, and usage under a single account.

## Step 1: Open the Account Switcher

From the dashboard, click the **"Personal account"** dropdown in the top right corner.

## Step 3: Name Your Organization

Enter your organization **Name** and **Slug**. You can also upload a logo. The slug appears in your dashboard URL and API requests, so keep it short and memorable (e.g., `acme`, `initech`, `wayne-labs`). Click **"Create organization"** when ready.

<Warning>
  The slug is unique to your organization, public-facing, and cannot be changed after creation. It should represent your organization (e.g., your company name or an abbreviation of it). Choose carefully.
</Warning>

## Step 4: Invite Members

Enter the email addresses of team members you want to invite, separated by commas. Select a **Role** for the invitees and click **"Send invitations"**. You can also click **"Skip"** to do this later.

## Step 5: Manage Your Organization

You're now in the organization dashboard. Use the account switcher to switch between your personal account and your organizations. Click **"Manage Members"** to add or remove team members at any time.
