# Create organization
Learn how to create a new organization in Coupler.io to manage teams, workspaces, and billing under one account. Step-by-step setup instructions included.
You can create multiple organizations in Coupler.io - for example, to separate billing, teams, or projects. Each organization has its own billing, settings, data flows, connections, and users.
Follow the steps below to add a new organization.
***
### Requirements
Before creating a new organization, make sure **you are a member of at least one paid organization.** Organization creation is available only to users with an active paid subscription.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Free-trial organizations cannot create new organizations. If you only have a trial org, the Add organization option will be disabled.
{% endhint %}
***
### What happens when you create a new organization?
The new organization starts in a clean state. It is completely isolated from existing organizations:
* **No data flows are copied**
* **No source or destination connections are copied**
* **No users are copied**
* Only **you** (the creator) are added as the **Organization Owner**
{% hint style="info" %}
New organizations start with a free 7-day trial, so you can prepare your setup before starting a paid plan.
{% endhint %}

{% endstepper %}

### FAQ
What happens with my organizations if I downgrade to the Free plan or leave all paid organizations?
You will **no longer be able to create new organizations**, but **all organizations you created earlier will remain available**. You keep access to them; nothing is removed.
Is there a limit on how many organizations I can have?
There is **no limit**. You can create an unlimited number of organizations (as long as you meet the creation requirements).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.coupler.io/account-management/workspaces-and-organization/how-to-create-organization.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
