Enabling Autopilot

You enable Autopilot per idea. You can have multiple ideas on Autopilot at the same time, but be mindful of credit consumption.

How to enable

1. Open the idea you want to put on Autopilot
2. Navigate to the Validate section (your Z2X Path)
3. Click the Autopilot toggle in the top-right of the plan header
4. Review the confirmation dialog — it shows:
   • How many steps are Ready to run
   • Estimated credit cost for the next session
   • The next decision gate (where Autopilot will pause)
5. Click Enable Autopilot

Autopilot starts immediately and begins running your plan steps.

Pre-flight checks

Before enabling, Z2X checks:

• Your credit balance is above the minimum threshold (20 credits by default)
• At least 1 step is in Ready status
• Your idea brief has a target customer, description, and business model filled in

If any check fails, Autopilot shows an error with a specific fix required.

Configuring Autopilot

Open the Autopilot settings panel (click the gear icon next to the Autopilot toggle) to configure:

Credit threshold

Default: 20 credits — Autopilot will pause if your balance drops below this. Increase it if you want a larger buffer.

Low confidence pause

Default: on — Autopilot pauses and queues the low-confidence output for your review rather than automatically proceeding. Turn this off only if you trust the agents' judgment on your specific idea.

Session limit

Default: none — You can cap how many steps run per session. For example, set it to 5 to only run 5 steps between reviews.

Running Autopilot across multiple ideas

You can enable Autopilot on multiple ideas simultaneously. Each idea runs its steps independently. Credits are consumed across all active Autopilots, so keep an eye on your balance if you have several running at once.

The Autopilots stat card on the Home screen shows a count of how many ideas are currently running on Autopilot.

Disabling Autopilot

• Open the idea → Validate → click the Autopilot toggle to turn it off
• Or use the Emergency stop — see Emergency stop →

Disabling Autopilot doesn't discard work in progress. Any step currently running will complete, and its output will be queued for your review.
