Before you start
Nothing. You can start right away.
The short version
Autopilot writes each post from a short list of facts: your business details, the products the post is about and anything you've told it to remember. Then it checks the finished post against that same list. If a post says something that list doesn't support, Autopilot doesn't use it.
What gets checked
| The check | What it looks for |
|---|---|
| Facts | Web addresses, phone numbers, emails, prices, percentages, offers, credentials, customer quotes, health claims and client names that your details don't back. |
| Fit | Does the post match its idea, sound like you, stay a sensible length and avoid repeating your recent posts? |
| Claims | A second read of the finished text, looking for any claim that isn't grounded in your details. |
| Images | When Autopilot makes an image: does it match the post, look right, and avoid a made-up location, fake text or a drawn logo? |
If Autopilot can't confirm a claim, it drops the post instead of letting it through. Photos of real things, like your products, your work, people and your place, are rejected when they can't be verified.
Which posts it covers
| Where the post comes from | Checks it goes through |
|---|---|
| Autopilot Mode, planned overnight | All of the checks above, on every plan. |
| Generate posts, in Review Mode | The fact check, before the post reaches your card. A post with an unsupported detail is dropped. |
The posts you swipe through in "Generate posts" get the fact check. Do not count on the other checks for these, so read each card before you swipe right. See how to approve a post.
What happens when a post fails
- Autopilot tries the post again, with notes on what to fix.
- If it still fails, the post is dropped and you never see it.
- Autopilot may plan a replacement for that slot.
What happens next
The check works from what Autopilot knows. The more accurate your details and products are, the more it can safely say. See how to manage what Autopilot remembers.
- Learn how images are picked in how Autopilot picks or makes an image.
- Turn on hands-off posting with how to turn on Autopilot Mode.
If something's not right
A post has a price or detail that's wrong
Edit the post, then fix the product or detail it came from. See what to do when a post has a wrong detail.
My schedule has fewer posts than I expected
Posts that fail the check are dropped, and Autopilot may plan a replacement. If posts are still missing, see what to do when a post didn't go out.
A post says nothing specific about my business
Add products and details so Autopilot has more to work with. See how to manage what Autopilot remembers.
