Configure supervised Autopilot

Review current configure supervised autopilot behavior, availability, limits, and operating details for Slash Social.

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

What it includes

Autopilot runs in the Plan work center for brand managers, owners, and admins on Team plans and above; see Plans for your workspace.

Supervised modes:

Mode What Autopilot does
Off Autopilot does not run
Suggesting Proposes planning ideas for humans to review
Drafting Generates drafts without auto-publishing
Queued for review Prepares 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.

If Slash Social cannot start the scheduled run, it makes the brand eligible for a later retry. It skips organizations with a past-due account and brands that do not have access before creating suggestions or drafts.

Every configuration change, manual run, pause, resume, block, and review-queue action is recorded with the organization, brand, actor, workspace, and request reference.

Details

Settings in the Autopilot modal today:

  • Enable or disable Autopilot for the brand
  • Choose a supervised mode
  • Select eligible platforms
  • Set Max posts per week (default is three)

Campaign, pillar, media, failure-handling, and notification constraints may affect Autopilot when your workspace configures them, but they are not editable from this Slack modal today.

Safety defaults for supervised modes:

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