Workspace Model
Why Raydo uses focused and full workspaces, and how that helps govern complexity.
Raydo does not split the product into a crippled beginner mode and a hidden expert mode. Its two workspace modes, focused and full, are a complexity-governance model.
The two workspace modes
| Mode | Purpose | Best for |
|---|---|---|
focused | Result-first path with the next useful action emphasized | New users, fast starts, narrow tasks |
full | Complete workspace with organization, workflow, approval, and operating controls | Power users, operators, and ongoing system work |
Why this is not "lite vs pro"
- The underlying system does not change when you switch.
- Existing organizations, roles, workflows, and settings are preserved.
- The goal is not to lock features away. The goal is to reveal complexity when the user is ready for it.
First-result onboarding
Raydo is designed to let users choose a path instead of asking them to understand the whole map on day one. Typical entry points are:
- start a conversation immediately
- run a sample workflow
- create a first company or role
This creates a smoother path from first value to deeper operating usage.
Gentle reveal instead of hard walls
Even when a user starts in the focused workspace, deep links and advanced flows do not force them backward. Raydo gradually exposes the full workspace model when the task requires it.
The product logic behind the model
The point of the dual workspace is simple: beginners should get to useful output fast, while advanced users should still have a serious control plane. Raydo treats this as product design, not account-tier packaging.
