# Introduction

> Staff management for Roblox groups — workspaces, roles, events and a public API.

Crovant gives a Roblox group a staff portal: a workspace backed by your group,
roles mapped from the group's own ranks, and the events, posts and training
records that go with them. Everything the portal does is also reachable over
the [API](/api-reference/introduction).

## How it fits together

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Workspaces" icon="building" href="/guides/workspace-setup">
    A workspace is bound to a Roblox group you own. Staff sign in with Roblox
    and their group rank decides what they can reach.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Roles and permissions" icon="key" href="/guides/roles-and-permissions">
    Group ranks map to Crovant roles. Panel access and individual permissions
    are granted per role.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Events and posts" icon="calendar" href="/guides/events-and-posts">
    Schedule trainings and publish announcements to your staff.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Billing and usage" icon="credit-card" href="/guides/billing-and-usage">
    Premium plans include monthly API credits; the free plan is pay as you go.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Signing in

Authentication is Roblox OAuth — there is no separate Crovant password. The
first person to sign in for a group is its owner, and everyone else inherits
access from their rank in that group.

<Note>
  Panel access is off by default for every role. A new staff member can sign in
  successfully and still see nothing until their role is enabled under
  **Configuration → Roles & Permissions**.
