Organizations and Projects
Organizations and projects provide the main control structure for enterprise customers.

Organization layer
An organization is the top-level container for:
- members
- projects
- billing
- settings
- security policies
The organization creator becomes the first Admin.
Project layer
Projects create operational isolation inside one organization.
Use projects to separate:
- teams
- environments
- workloads
- API keys
- usage views
Why projects matter
Projects solve three real problems:
- knowing which usage belongs to which team
- letting project owners manage their own resources
- keeping cost attribution clean
Practical model
One user can belong to multiple organizations and multiple projects. A project owner should only see and manage the project context they own, while the organization admin sees the full org.
Suggested mental model
Organization owns policy. Project owns execution context.
