Autopilot

Your calendar, drafted as each post comes due

Turn on autopilot and Wavefront drafts every active strategy's posts ahead of their dates, filling open slots from your idea backlog with the editorial mix. You still approve each one, unless an owner allows auto-approve for drafts that pass every check.

What it does

Autopilot, in detail

Drafted as posts come due

Each calendar post starts drafting as it comes due, so it reaches review in time for its date.

Fed by your backlog

Open slots take the best idea from the backlog: your ideas, the strategist's and the ones suggestions add.

Balanced by the editorial mix

Formats, pillars and subjects rotate to their target shares, with spacing rules and deadlines respected.

Gated auto-approve

An owner can turn it on for articles from calendar items a person or an owner's own agent wrote. It only passes drafts with zero blockers whose documents no import, and no other agent or key, changed.

One automatic revision

With auto-revise on, a draft that fails a check gets one revision before it waits for a person.

Limits you set

Spend caps and cadence live under Settings, and every autopilot post records why it took its slot.

How it runs

Step by step

  1. 1

    Save a plan

    A strategy with a calendar and a cadence.

  2. 2

    Turn on autopilot

    One switch covers every active strategy.

  3. 3

    Review as posts arrive

    Approve, revise or reject each draft.

  4. 4

    Allow auto-approve, if you want

    An owner allows it for drafts with zero blockers.

When auto-approve applies

A person approves each draft unless an owner turns on auto-approve, and even then it covers only these cases.

  • Only autopilot's own article drafts, or the one revision it asked for
  • Only from calendar items a person or an owner's own agent wrote, or ideas one of them added
  • Only with zero blockers in the draft's checks
  • Never when an import, or an agent or API key that isn't an owner's, changed what the draft read
  • Every owner is emailed when it is turned on

Questions about autopilot

Does autopilot publish without me?

Not by default. Autopilot writes the drafts and you approve them. Auto-approve is a separate switch only an owner can turn on, and it only covers drafts that pass every check.

What does autopilot cost?

Drafts use credits like any other generation. Autopilot cadence isn't limited by the plan; credits and the spend caps you set are the only limits.

What happens if a payment fails?

You get seven days of grace. After that autopilot pauses until the payment goes through. Drafting by hand still works while credits last.
