# What are the Different User Permissions on CoHost?
## Learn about the different user types and their associated permissions in CoHost.
CoHost is built for modern podcast teams that don’t all do the same job and don’t need the same level of access. From marketing, sales, product, tech, and finance teams, every role interacts with the platform differently.
That’s why CoHost uses role-based permissions to ensure each user has exactly the access they need. Plus, all plans include **unlimited seats**, so you can bring in as many people as you need without worrying about per-user costs.
To learn how to add users to your CoHost account, please see [this support article](https://help.cohostpodcasting.com/how-to-invite-other-users-to-my-cohost-account?hsLang=en-us).
Now, let’s dive into the different types of users and their associated permissions:
