Organizational design tool for org redesign

Resorcerer is an organizational design tool: you model your structure as a tree of units and positions, price every position with cost rules instead of a spreadsheet, and test changes in disposable copies before anything touches the real organization. Design the organization you're becoming, not just the one you have.

1. 01 / 05

   Start from the structure you have

   Departments, teams and squads, each labelled in your own words, with every position and the person in it.

2. 02 / 05

   See it as one tree

   Reporting lines run between positions, so the same model reads as an org chart as well as a set of units.

3. 03 / 05

   Add the team you need

   Add a Platform Team where it belongs, under Engineering, in a draft that leaves the real organization untouched.

4. 04 / 05

   Fill it, or leave seats open

   Place a person you already have, and leave the other positions open to hire. Open roles are part of the plan.

5. 05 / 05

   See what it costs

   Cost rules price every position by role, level and location, filled or vacant, so the new team is costed as you build it.

Every plan is a model

In Resorcerer, a model is one version of your organizational structure: the hierarchy, the positions inside it, who fills them, and the reporting lines. Models are independent. One can describe how your team looks today while another describes next quarter, and editing one never changes another. Resorcerer tells you precisely how two models differ, and what the difference costs.

People, roles, levels, and locations live at the workspace level and are shared by every model, so a plan never duplicates your data. It arranges it.

Redesign the organization on a copy

An organization redesign changes many things at once: which teams exist, who leads them, where each position sits and what the whole structure costs. In Resorcerer you draft that redesign on a copy of the real organization, so you can try a bolder version and a cautious one side by side, compare each against today, and merge only the one you choose. Nothing the redesign touches is real until a reviewed merge lands it.

The workflow Resorcerer is built around: protect the model that represents your real organization so nobody edits it by accident, copy it into a draft, change the draft freely, compare the two to see exactly what you've done and what it costs, then merge back only the changes you accept, one at a time. A protected model still accepts merges: edits are blocked, reviewed changes are not, so there's exactly one way in.

That's the difference between an organizational design tool and an org chart drawing app: the drawing shows a structure; the model lets you propose, review, and land a change. See how compare and merge works in the docs.

Costs that follow the structure

A cost profile is a rule: describe the shape of a position (a role, a level, a location) and give that shape a price. Every matching position is costed automatically, and stays correct as the structure changes. No spreadsheet to keep in step.

Reading it back, a model shows headcount and cost split into filled and vacant: not just what the organization costs today, but what it costs fully staffed. Costs roll up the unit tree, so you can expand toward whichever branch looks expensive, and a problems report flags positions no rule covers.

Put the plan on a calendar

Two independent ways to express when: dates on a position ("this role opens in March, this contractor rolls off in Q3"), and a timeline of dated models ("what does the whole organization look like at each point we planned for"). Use neither, either, or both.

Design is a team sport

Invite collaborators into the workspace, control who can see which models, and review what changed with a full audit log. Drafts stay private while you work; the protected model stays safe while you share.

Works with your tools, and your agents

Bring people in via import, get data out via export or the REST API. And Resorcerer speaks MCP, so an AI assistant can read your organizational structure, and change it if you let it, as a first-class participant. "Which teams have no senior engineer?" and "what would this restructure cost?" become questions an agent can actually answer.

Start with a working example

The free preview gives you a worked example organization to explore: org chart, diagram and matrix views, costs, breakdowns and problem checks. It stays read-only until you upgrade, so you can judge the tool on a real structure before building yours. Paid plans start with a 14-day free trial; see pricing.
