Every team is a draft until you say otherwise.
Teamer never publishes a team on its own. Draft teams land in front of staff first, where you can inspect them, move students, explain a choice, and release them only when they are right.
How it works
What happens, in order. Staff stay in charge at each step.
Open the draft
See the full set of proposed teams for the cohort in one place, not one group at a time.
Inspect a team
Look at who is in each team and the survey answers that shaped it, so you can judge whether it works.
Adjust by hand
Move a student, rebalance a group, or reform a team. Your changes hold, and the draft stays yours until you publish.
Publish to students
Release the teams when you are happy with them, and students see the result straight away.
Ways to shape a draft
A draft is a starting point. Change anything about it before it becomes real.
Move a student
Shift someone into a team that suits them better.
Rebalance a team
Even out a group that is too heavy or too light in one area.
Reform a team
Break up and rebuild an arrangement that is not working.
Leave a note
Explain a decision so other staff have the context.
What students see
- Only the teams you choose to publish
- A clear view of their team and the people in it
- Nothing in-progress or provisional
Your data
Drafts, edits, and published teams are stored in Australia, in the Sydney region on Supabase. Only staff with the right course role can see or change a draft.

Can I edit teams before students see them?
Yes. Every arrangement is a draft until you publish it. Open any team, move students, rebalance a group, or reform it entirely, and your changes hold. Students only ever see the teams you approve.
Does Teamer publish teams automatically?
Never. Draft teams land with staff first, not students. Teams go live only when you choose to release them.
