Teams, Spaces, Pages & Decisions

Decimake uses four nested levels. Understanding each level helps you set permissions and visibility correctly.

Team

  • Your billing and membership boundary.
  • Has a plan (Free, Pro, Enterprise), seat limit, storage quota, and optional SAML SSO (Enterprise).
  • Can be Private (members only) or Public (guests can preview read-only content).
  • Contains roles (Owner, Admin, Editor, Member by default) and members.

Routes: /teams/:teamId/ (overview), /teams/:teamId/_settings/, /teams/:teamId/_change-plan/.

Space

  • A top-level folder for a department, product line, or project.
  • Has its own visibility: Restricted, Private, or Public.
  • Opens to a statistics dashboard (totals, status breakdown, recent decisions) rather than a page list.
  • Contains pages (browsed from the sidebar tree) and optional space-level member permission overrides, available on every plan.

Routes: /teams/:teamId/:spaceSlug/, /teams/:teamId/:spaceSlug/_settings/.

Page

  • A decision log—not a free-form wiki article, but a container listing related decisions.
  • Has visibility independent of its parent space (Pro+ can change; Free is fixed to Restricted).
  • Supports page-level permission overrides, available on every plan.
  • Gets its own Slack channel automatically once your team connects Slack (Pro+).

Routes: /teams/:teamId/:spaceSlug/:pageSlug/, /teams/:teamId/:spaceSlug/:pageSlug/_settings/.

Decision

  • The atomic unit of work: one proposal with lifecycle status.
  • Fields: title, icon, description, reasoning, deadline, tags, involvement positions, attachments.
  • Has comments (threaded discussion), a Signatures panel when its configuration gates a transition, and—once Slack is connected—a thread inside its page’s channel.
  • Status drives what can be edited—published decisions freeze content for non-managers.

Routes: …/:pageSlug/:decisionId/ (view), …/:decisionId/_edit/ (edit), …/:pageSlug/_new/ (create).

Involvement positions

Instead of a flat list of assignees, each decision can use a named, configurable set of positions—RACI, DACI, RASCI, RAPID, or fully custom—each with its own headcount rules, optional signature gating, and decision-scoped permissions. See Involvement Positions & Signatures for the full workflow.

How visibility stacks

LevelPrivateRestrictedPublic
TeamInvited members onlyAnyone with link can preview (guest mode)
SpaceNamed space members onlyAll team membersBroader read when team is public
PageNamed page members onlyTeam members (typical default)Readable when team/space allow

On the Free plan, space and page visibility are locked to Restricted until you upgrade to Pro.

Real-time updates

When teammates create or update spaces, pages, or decisions, the sidebar and lists refresh over a live connection—you do not need to reload the page manually.
