Know who changed what, and when
Four roles for your team, and a record of their changes that nobody can edit.
Four roles, each a step up
Everyone on a team has one role, and each can do all the role below it can.
Viewer
Sees the team's sites and reports. Can't change them, and can't see customers or form submissions.
Member
Builds, changes and publishes sites, and answers customers, bookings and form submissions.
Admin
All a member can do, plus inviting people, reading the activity log and deleting sites.
Owner
All an admin can do, plus billing and deleting the team. Ownership moves only by a transfer.
A record nobody can edit
The activity log is your team's record of the changes that matter. It says who was invited, whose role changed, who published or took a site offline, who downloaded a customer list and who turned a workflow on. Each entry names who acted, someone on the team or Shingle itself, and when.
An entry is written in the same step as its change, so a change that fails leaves no entry, and there's never an entry for something that didn't happen. After that, the app gives nobody a way to edit or delete it, whether an admin, the owner or Shingle's own staff, and the database refuses the attempt. A correction is a new entry. The only thing that removes the log is deleting the whole team.
It's written from the day your team starts, and admins and the owner can read all of it, back to that day. Entries hold no email addresses, so someone can delete their account and the log stays readable.

Four, called viewer, member, admin and owner. A viewer reads. A member builds, changes and publishes sites and answers customers. An admin also manages people, reads the activity log and deletes sites. The owner also handles billing and can delete the team. Each role includes everything below it.
No. Nobody on your team can, and Shingle's staff have no tool for it. The app has no way to do it, and the database itself refuses an edit or a delete. The one exception is deleting the whole team, which takes its log with it. A correction is a new entry.
No. It comes with the plan and its trial, and it takes an admin or the owner to read it. It's written from the day your team starts, so you see your history from the start. The four roles come with it too.
As many as you like. There's no limit on people, and they cost nothing extra. A client you invite to one site isn't on your team, and what they publish still shows under their name.
Sign-ins and sessions, which your sessions list holds, and each site's AI changes, edits and restores, which that site's history holds. It also leaves out anything someone only read. You can't export the log yet, or stream it to another system.
