# Workspaces Overview

> Collaborative spaces for your team's AI conversations

## What Are Workspaces?

Workspaces are shared collaboration spaces where teams can have AI-powered conversations grounded in a common set of files and knowledge. Every workspace has its own conversations, uploaded documents, member list, and persistent AI memory -- keeping your team's work organized and contextually relevant.

<Note>
  Workspaces are different from personal chats. In a personal chat, only you see the conversation and your uploaded files. In a workspace, every member shares the same files and can participate in conversations together.

## Why Use Workspaces?

    Upload documents once and every conversation in the workspace draws from that shared knowledge base.

## Creating a Workspace

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Workspaces page">
    Navigate to **Workspaces** in the left sidebar. You will see a list of workspaces you own or have been invited to.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Create Workspace">
    Click the **Create Workspace** button in the top-right corner. Enter a name and an optional description for your workspace.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start collaborating">
    Once created, you are the **Owner**. You can immediately upload files, invite members, and start conversations.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## The Workspace Detail View

When you open a workspace, you will see several tabs and sections:

* **Conversations** -- A list of all conversations in the workspace. Click any conversation to open it, or start a new one. Every conversation is scoped to the workspace's files and knowledge, so the AI's answers are grounded in your shared documents.
* **Files** -- All documents uploaded to this workspace. Files are processed through the RAG pipeline so the AI can reference their contents. See [Workspace Files](/workspaces/files) for details.
* **Members** -- The people who have access to this workspace, along with their roles. See [Members & Permissions](/workspaces/members-permissions) for role definitions and management.
* **Memory** -- The workspace's persistent AI memory, including Core Memory entries and Memory Crystals. See [Workspace Memory](/workspaces/memory) for a full explanation.

## How Workspace Conversations Work

Conversations started inside a workspace are automatically scoped to that workspace's files and knowledge. When you ask the AI a question, it searches the workspace's indexed documents to find relevant context before responding.

<Tip>
  If you need the AI to reference a specific document, upload it to the workspace's Files tab first. The file will be indexed and available to all future conversations in that workspace.
</Tip>

This scoping means that two workspaces can have entirely different knowledge bases. A "Sales" workspace might contain pricing sheets and CRM exports, while an "Engineering" workspace holds API docs and architecture diagrams -- and the AI tailors its answers accordingly.

## Workspace Limits

Every RelayHub subscription plan includes workspace support. The number of workspaces you can create and the storage available for files depend on your organization's plan. Contact your administrator if you need additional capacity.
