Understanding Your Workspace Mode
How Solo, Startup, and Scale Up modes shape your Crewie experience
Crewie adapts to where you are in your business journey. It does this through Workspace Modes — three different configurations of the platform, each tuned to a specific stage.
The three modes
Solo Operator
For established business owners running the whole show on their own. You get a simplified, focused version of Crewie — a one-page strategy framework, CrewieAI as your thinking partner, Projects, Workboards, My Sprint, and My Day. Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Startup
For early-stage founders — solo or small team — moving from idea to traction. You get the full StartupPath (an 8-stage guided journey from Founder Clarity to Scale), Team Plans with Anchors, Workcrews for your founding team, and CrewieAI tuned to startup mode.
Scale Up
For growing organisations executing strategy across multiple teams. You get the complete strategy stack — Vision, Mission, BHAG, North Star Metric, Strategic Goals, and Initiatives — plus Team Plans, all Workcrews, Business Insights, and CrewieAI with full business context.
How your mode affects the platform
- The language and terminology changes to fit your stage
- CrewieAI's quick prompts are tuned to your most relevant questions
- The features and planning frameworks available adapt to what you actually need
- Your onboarding flow is specific to your mode
How to change your mode
Go to Settings → Workspace → Mode. You can switch modes at any time. Your existing data stays intact — only the platform's configuration changes.
If you're not sure which mode is right for you, start with the one that feels closest and adjust from there. Crewie is designed to grow with you.
