Key concepts
This page is your glossary. You don’t need to memorize it — skim it once, then come back whenever a word is unfamiliar.
Organization
Section titled “Organization”Your team’s private workspace, and the boundary around everything you do. Every file, member, and setting belongs to one organization. If you work with more than one team, you can belong to several organizations and switch between them.
Member
Section titled “Member”A person who belongs to your organization. You add members by inviting them by email. Once they accept, they appear in your team and can start collaborating.
What a member is allowed to do across the organization. There are two:
- Admin — can manage the organization: invite people, change roles, edit settings, manage billing.
- Member — can do the day-to-day work (files, calls, dashboard) but not manage the organization itself.
Roles are about organization-wide authority. They’re different from access levels, which are about individual files (see below).
A paid slot for one member. Your plan includes a certain number of seats, and each member — or pending invitation — takes one. When your seats are full, you either free one up or move to a larger plan before adding more people.
Platform
Section titled “Platform”A focused tool inside LMG Core. Rather than one giant app, LMG Core is a suite of platforms you move between:
- Geniviv — file management. Your shared, versioned music library. (Available today.)
- Titan — the next platform in the suite. (Coming soon.)
File & folder
Section titled “File & folder”Inside Geniviv, your work is organized into folders and files, just like a computer — but shared with your team and backed by history and access controls.
Version
Section titled “Version”Every time someone uploads a new take of a file, LMG Core keeps the previous one. The set of all those takes is the file’s version history. The newest is the current version, but older versions are never lost — you can always look back.
Access level
Section titled “Access level”What a specific person can do with a specific file. There are three, from least to most:
- Viewer — can open and download the file.
- Editor — can also upload new versions and organize it.
- Owner — can also manage who else has access, and delete it.
The person who creates a file is automatically its owner.
Activity / history
Section titled “Activity / history”A running record of what happened — who uploaded, shared, renamed, or moved something, and when. Every file has its own activity trail so nothing is a mystery.
Notification
Section titled “Notification”A heads-up when something relevant happens — for example, when a teammate shares a file with you or uploads a new version of a file you care about.
