# Workspaces (/docs/organizations/create-and-switch)

A workspace holds one company's records, people and settings. Factory OS is invite-only, so
workspaces are not created from the app: the VIGOR team creates each customer's workspace when it
invites the owner (see [Invite a customer](/docs/organizations/invite-a-customer)).

Open `/workspaces` to see the workspaces your account belongs to and use the **Open
workspace** Combobox to switch between them.

Belong to more than one workspace? When you sign in, Factory OS opens the one you used last. The
first time, or if you were removed from that one, it asks **Which workspace?**: tap a workspace to
open it.

If your account is not in any workspace, the page says so and names the email to ask your
administrator to invite. Removed from a workspace by mistake? The same person can invite you again.
