create a new account

I have an account But I'd like to set up a new account for a startup I am working with, and I'd like to keep the two accounts seperate. Currently, I only have one github login. I am a member of the startup's organization and have an email from the organization, but am not currently using that email to login to github

You generally just use one account for both, as the different teams provide separation. If you really want to have a completely separate login, you'll need to make a seprate GitHub account and use that.

but how do I create a new team. I want to be able to log into the new team, but it wouldn't be my property log term necessarily, like I want to set it up for this company

hmm I've heard of transfering individual projects, not sure about entire teams

but if I invite team members they can see all projects under the team?

Yeah that's correct You can set up separate teams so folks only have access to the projects you want them to

Docs on teams, there's a good amount of control, you can set admins for team or project: https://docs.convex.dev/dashboard/teams#roles-and-permissions
Teams | Convex Developer Hub
In Convex, your projects are organized by team. Teams are used to share access

But all team members do have visibility of all projects on the team
