# Platform Account management

The Tailor Platform enables comprehensive account management for admins and developers through the [Console](https://console.tailor.tech).
This functionality is key to managing user permissions, roles, organization accounts, folders, and teams, facilitating effective collaboration and resource organization.

The Platform implements a hierarchical structure to organize accounts and manage access:

Structure Overview

* Organizations
  * Folders
    * Workspace

* Teams
  * Members

Each level (Organization, Folder, Team) supports role-based access control to help manage permissions efficiently at every layer.

 To get started, please [contact us](https://www.tailor.tech/demo) to create an Organization. 

## Organization

Organization admins and editors manage teams and folders, while viewers can develop apps within assigned workspaces.

Roles and permissions define access and responsibilities.

Here's a list of permissions for each role
