Collaboration
Invite a co-GP, analyst, or adviser to edit a saved fund model when both owner and editor have qualifying product access.
How to invite
- Open a model you own.
- Click Collaborators.
- Type the email of someone you want to edit with you. They don't need a Hemrock account yet.
- They sign in or create an account using the invited email. Editing also requires their own qualifying Fund Economics product access; an invitation alone does not supply it.
Invites and existing collaborators are listed together in the panel. Revoke either one at any time, with or without an active license. Revoking a pending invite frees the slot it was holding.
Limits
- 5 per model. Existing collaborators plus pending invites count together.
- 5 across all your models. Same total cap, applied to your account as a whole.
Both caps are reversible. Revoke an invite or remove a collaborator and the slot is yours to reuse.
Owner vs. invitee
- Owner manages share links and collaborators, can delete the model, and must have access to the underlying product.
- Invitee needs their own qualifying product access to edit. They cannot delete the model, change its share link, or manage other collaborators.
Invitees who already have a Hemrock account get access to the shared model on the email you invited. Invitees without an account get a magic-link email; after signing up with that email they return to the shared model. An invitation grants access to that model only; it does not add an independent product entitlement.
Access
Collaboration is included with eligible product access for both owner and invited editor; it is not sold as a separate collaboration license. Qualifying Fund Economics workbook purchases and historical collaboration purchases are recognized. An active Fund Economics compute subscription also qualifies during its paid term: $20/year for 6,000 successful API/MCP calculations. Manage it in Developer access.
Browser calculations, personal editing, and saving with an account do not require payment. Read-only recipients do not need paid access. Sharing spreadsheet files is separate from hosted collaboration. A workbook or historical collaboration purchase does not grant perpetual API/MCP compute.
When product access expires
Saved models and collaboration history remain in the account. Editing and new invitations follow the underlying product-access rules shown in the account.
