Overview

Organization admins can manage team members and control who has access to Gitar features through seat assignments. The members page provides a centralized view of everyone in your organization, their roles, and their seat status.

Inviting Members

Gitar syncs members directly from your connected code hosting platform — no manual invites are needed.
  • GitHub: All organization members are automatically synced. Outside collaborators also appear and are marked with a “Collaborator” badge.
  • GitLab: All group members are automatically synced.
Once you connect your code host, members appear in your Gitar organization automatically.

Seat Management

Seat management applies to the Team plan. Enterprise plans include unlimited seats.
Seats control which users get Gitar’s automatic features on their PRs. Admins assign seats from the organization settings page at app.gitar.ai.

With a Seat

Users with an assigned seat get full access to Gitar’s automatic capabilities, including:
  • Automatic code review on their PRs
  • CI failure analysis
  • All other Team-plan features

Without a Seat

Users without a seat can still open PRs, but Gitar will not process them automatically. They will see a message asking an admin to assign them a seat.

Seat Tiers

The seats page groups users into three tiers:
  1. Seated — Users who currently have a seat assigned and receive full Gitar features.
  2. Active without a seat — Users who are actively contributing but do not have a seat assigned.
  3. Inactive — Users who have not had recent activity.

Trial Period

During a trial, seat limits are not enforced. All members get full access to Gitar features regardless of seat assignment.

MemberCan use Gitar features on their PRs when assigned a seat.

Billing Context

How seats relate to billing depends on your plan:
  • Team plan: Usage is allocated per seat on a monthly billing cycle. You are billed based on the number of seats assigned.
  • Enterprise plan: Unlimited usage with no seat limits.
For full details on pricing and plan features, see Plans & Billing.

Troubleshooting

Members are synced from your connected code hosting platform. Ensure the person is a member of your GitHub organization or GitLab group. Once they have been added there, they will appear in Gitar automatically.
An admin needs to assign them a seat from the organization settings page. Navigate to your organization settings at app.gitar.ai and assign a seat to the user. During a trial period, seat limits are not enforced, so this message should not appear.
