# Roles & Permissions There are **three main user types** within CollabMind: * Design Professionals * One Design Professional will be the Admin and the one who holds the subscription * Clients * Contractors Because CollabMind is built on the premise that projects are more successful when there is collaboration and shared information, the large majority of the interface is the same for all users. That means that anything uploaded can be viewed by all. There are a few exceptions to this: * Contractors may or may not have access to view the Billing tab in the Build section. This permission is set by the Design Professional Admin * Messages are only seen by those on that chain. This allows for some private conversations - for example maybe the client wants to ask their designer a question without the contractor seeing. The client could message just the designer and the contractor would not have access to that message chain. * The Design Professional Admin has access to the Subscription informaiton and the ability to set a custom color scheme within the Settings. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
