What happens when an existing Cosmo user receives an invitation?

Existing users receive an email with a direct link to the invitations page. They do not need to create a new account.

The problem

Onboarding delays slow teams down

Every hour a new team member spends waiting for access is an hour they can't contribute. Complex onboarding flows and unclear instructions make the delay worse.

Getting colleagues access is slower than it should be

Manual account creation, credential setup, and permission assignment add friction to onboarding. New team members wait for access instead of starting work.

Different paths for new and existing users cause confusion

Users already on Cosmo and first-time users need different instructions. Without a clear flow for each, some accept invitations incorrectly or create duplicate accounts.

Admins have no visibility into pending invitations

Without a central view of outstanding invitations, it's easy to lose track of who has been invited, who has accepted, and who still needs access.

Our solution

A simple invitation flow that handles both user types

One invitation flow, two paths. New users get what they need to create an account and join. Existing users get a direct path to accept. Both end at the invitations page where the decision is theirs.

How invitations work

Admin navigates to organization settings and enters the invitee's email address.
Cosmo sends an invitation email tailored to the invitee's status.
New Cosmo users receive instructions to set up a password and then log in.
Existing Cosmo users receive a direct link to the invitations page.
The invitee accepts or declines from the invitations page.
Upon acceptance, the invitee gains immediate access to the organization.

From invitation to access in a few clicks. No admin involvement after the initial send.
