Configure supervised Autopilot

Current configure supervised autopilot facts for Slash Social.

Autopilot prepares planning suggestions and drafts in the background while your team keeps review control. Autonomous publishing is not supported. This capability is in beta.

What it includes

Autopilot runs in the Plan work center for admins, creators, and approvers. Plan access is required; see Plans for your workspace.

Supervised modes:

ModeWhat Autopilot does
OffAutopilot does not run
SuggestingProposes planning ideas for humans to review
DraftingGenerates drafts without auto-publishing
Queued for reviewPrepares drafts and queues them for approval

Autonomous publishing is blocked. If you select it in settings, the form shows an error: “Autonomous publishing is not supported. Choose a supervised Autopilot mode.”

How to use it

  1. Open Plan App Home for the active brand.
  2. Choose Configure under Autopilot.
  3. Enable Autopilot, pick a supervised mode, select eligible platforms, and set Max posts per week.
  4. Save and confirm App Home shows the expected state after the next eligible run.

Autopilot runs on a morning schedule in the brand timezone when enabled. App Home shows state such as Suggesting, Drafting, Queued for review, Paused, or Blocked, plus last action and next eligible run.

  • Publishable drafts without media stay blocked when media is required
  • Failures can pause the brand until someone resumes Autopilot
