The Colony
Manage your team, configure SSO, and handle subscription billing from The Colony.
The Colony
The Colony is the team and organization management area, available at /colony in the Zaru
client. It is where you manage members, configure identity federation, and handle your
subscription.
Members
The Members tab shows everyone in your organization.
Inviting Members
Click Invite Member and enter the recipient's email address. The invitation link is bound to that email address — only the same email can redeem it. When the invitee authenticates and accepts, they become an active member of your team, their seat is added to your subscription automatically, and their paid-tier access is covered by the team subscription for as long as they remain a member.
You can cancel a pending invitation at any time from the member list; cancelled invitations cannot be redeemed even if the email was already delivered. You can also resend a pending invitation if the original email was missed.
Team features are available on Pro, Business, and Enterprise tiers. Free accounts cannot create or join teams. Pro teams are capped at 5 seats, Business teams at 25 seats, and Enterprise teams have unlimited seats.
Removing Members
Click the three-dot menu next to a member and select Remove. Removing a member revokes their access to all shared agents, workflows, and volumes within the organization, removes their seat from your subscription on the next invoice, and returns their tier assignment to whatever their personal account entitles them to (Free if they do not have a personal subscription). Removal is immediate — the member loses access as soon as the action completes.
Updating Roles
Each member has a role that determines their permissions within the organization:
- Owner — full administrative control, including billing and member management
- Admin — manage agents, workflows, volumes, and members (cannot manage billing)
- Member — create and execute agents and workflows, manage own resources
Click a member's role badge to change it. Only Owners and Admins can modify roles.
SAML SSO
Enterprise tier organizations can configure SAML Single Sign-On for centralized authentication.
From the SSO tab, provide your identity provider's metadata URL or upload the metadata XML. Once configured, all members authenticate through your corporate identity provider instead of individual credentials.
SAML SSO is available exclusively on the Enterprise tier.
Subscription and Billing
The Billing tab shows your current plan, usage against tier quotas, and payment details.
Viewing Your Plan
The billing overview displays:
- Current tier (Free, Pro, Business, or Enterprise)
- Quota usage — concurrent agents, total agent count, storage consumed, and seats used
- Billing period and next renewal date
Upgrading
Click Upgrade or visit the /pricing page to compare tiers and select a new plan. The
upgrade flow redirects to Stripe's hosted checkout for secure payment processing. Your tier
updates automatically once payment succeeds.
Managing Billing
Click Manage Billing to open the Stripe Customer Portal, where you can update payment methods, download invoices, and change between monthly and annual billing.
Per-Seat Pricing
Pro, Business, and Enterprise tiers use per-seat pricing when operated as teams. Each active member in your organization counts as one seat. Seats increment automatically the moment an invitee accepts their invitation, and decrement automatically the moment a member is removed or leaves. Every seat change is prorated on your next invoice through Stripe.
As long as a member is active in your team, their paid-tier access is covered by the team subscription — they do not need their own individual subscription while they are on the team. When they leave, that coverage ends and they fall back to their personal subscription tier (Free if they do not have one).
