Will I be charged for adding a new team member to my Growth plan project?

Based on the official Sanity documentation, yes, adding a new member to your Growth plan project will likely result in charges, depending on how many seats you're currently using.

Here's what I can confirm from the Sanity pricing documentation:

Growth Plan Pricing:

• The Growth plan costs $15 per seat per month
• The plan supports up to 50 user seats

When you invite a new member to your project, they will consume one of your available seats. If you haven't reached your seat limit, the new member will be added to your existing subscription. However, you'll be billed for each seat that's actively being used.

What you should check:

1. Review your current seat usage: Log into manage.sanity.io, navigate to your project's Settings → Billing section to see how many seats you currently have and how many are in use.

2. Understand your billing: The Growth plan bills per seat at $15/month, so each additional team member will add to your monthly costs unless you have unused seats already included in your current plan.

3. Consider the role assigned: The documentation confirms that the Growth plan includes 5 different permission roles (Administrator, Viewer, Editor, Developer, and Contributor), but it doesn't explicitly state whether certain roles like "Viewer" are free versus paid.

My recommendation: Since the documentation doesn't clearly specify whether certain roles (like Viewer) consume paid seats or not, I'd suggest contacting Sanity support directly through your dashboard or at support@sanity.io to get a definitive answer about:

• Whether all roles consume paid seats equally
• Your current seat usage and available capacity
• How the new member will affect your billing

This will ensure you have accurate information specific to your account before the new member starts using the system.
