Before you start
Steps
Open "Billing" in Settings
Go to Settings, then the Billing tab. Only billing admins see it. If you can't open Billing, ask an account owner to upgrade this business to Pro.
You should see: The Billing page, with a "Plans" section.
Open PlansTap "Upgrade to Pro"
Follow the Stripe window. The steps are in how to upgrade to Pro. If you're on a trial, you already have Pro. Add a card with "Add a card to keep Pro" so it carries on.
You should see: A message says "Your plan is now Pro."
Check "Brand and content" in Settings
On Free, the bottom of the "Brand voice" section has a box titled "Post without the watermark". On Pro, that box is gone.
You should see: No upgrade box about the watermark appears on the page.
Open Brand and content
What the watermark is
When Autopilot schedules a post for a Free account, it adds one line after the text and before any hashtags: "Powered by Ampere Autopilot. Try it free at ampere-autopilot.com". Pro posts go out with only your own words.
After you upgrade
- Posts Autopilot schedules after you upgrade go out without the line.
- Posts already on your schedule were written with the line in them, so they may still carry it. Open one on your schedule to check. Here's how to read your schedule.
- If you cancel and your account moves to Free, the watermark comes back on new posts. See how to cancel your subscription.
Pro also posts up to 3 times a day and has unlimited voice training. Compare plans on the Pricing page.
What happens next
- Edit any upcoming post with how to edit a post.
- Check the cost and terms in how to upgrade to Pro.
- Free limits still matter until you upgrade. See how many posts each plan gets.
If something's not right
You upgraded, but a scheduled post still has the line
That post was written while you were on Free, so the line is already in it. New posts won't have it. See how to read your schedule.
You upgraded, but Billing still shows Free
Stripe may still be confirming the payment. See what to do when a payment is still processing.
You can't remove it without upgrading
Pro is the only way to remove it. If cost is the worry, read how the Pro trial works or email support@ampere-autopilot.com.
