FAQs
Can I edit Auto-Pilot articles?
Yes — you can edit them in your CMS after they’re generated. If you have your CMS set to 'Sync as draft' and not 'Published' status, then you can edit the article in IndexPilot or your CMS and then manually publish.
What if I run out of keywords?
Auto-Pilot will automatically use AI to generate new targeted keywords for article creation.
Does each site have its own settings?
Yes, you control Auto-Pilot per site.
With AutoPilot enabled, you’ll get a steady flow of optimized content every day — no manual effort required.
