Roles and permissions

Cadigence has three account roles: Admin, Manager, and Designer.

Account role	What they do
Designer	Produces drawings in AutoCAD, submits for review, resolves comments. Uses a seat.
Manager	Sets up projects, pipelines, and people, and reviews drawings. Reviews for free.
Admin	Full control of the company workspace, billing, and settings. Reviews for free.

Checker, approver, and client are not separate account roles, they are review functions. Each pipeline level is given an authority type (technical check, engineering approval, or client acceptance), and a reviewer is assigned to it. Whoever checks or approves signs off from the browser; no plugin is needed.

Only designers consume seats. See Pricing and Multi-level approval.
