# Autopilot

> Set up a series once. Crealix plans, produces and publishes new episodes on your schedule — with or without your approval.

Autopilot turns Crealix into a channel that runs itself. You describe a **series** once — the format, what it's about, the look, the schedule and where it goes — and Autopilot takes it from there, episode after episode.

① Filters · ② A series card · ③ Days it posts this week · ④ How many episodes your credits cover · ⑤ Play / pause and more · ⑥ Series running and New series

## How it works

**1. Plans**

For every slot in your schedule, Autopilot invents a new episode idea from your **brief**, your own idea list, the pages you gave it and your rules. It remembers what it already covered, so it never repeats a theme.

**2. Produces**

Before each slot it writes, voices and generates the episode — picking a voice, visual style, music and caption style from the **pools** you chose, so the channel stays fresh without going off-brand.

**3. Waits for you (optional)**

If the series uses approvals, it emails you a preview. Rendering and publishing only happen after you click **Approve & render**.

**4. Publishes**

It renders and posts to your TikTok, YouTube and Instagram accounts at the scheduled time — or emails you a link to watch and download each episode.

## The Autopilot page

Open **Autopilot** in the sidebar to see every series you have.

* **Filters** (①) — *All*, *Active*, *Paused* and *Draft*, with a count on each. Switch between grid and list view at the top right.
* **Series cards** (②) — the series name, its format, its status (*Active*, *Paused* or *Draft*) and why it's paused, if it is.
* **This week** (③) — one dot per day for the next seven days; filled dots are days with an episode.
* **Episodes left** (④) — roughly how many more episodes your current credit balance covers.
* **Play / pause** and **⋯** (⑤) — pause or resume a series without opening it; the menu has the rest.
* **Series counter** and **New series** (⑥) — how many series are running out of the number your plan allows, and the button to start a new one.

## What a series can make

Every episode is a full video in one of these formats: Topic to AI Story, Script to AI Story, Music Video, Talking Objects, AI Dramas, AI Movies, AI Skeleton, Reddit Stories, Fake Text Messages, Twitter Videos, Split Videos and Stock Video. Each format works exactly as it does by hand — see [Video formats](https://docs.crealix.ai/formats/overview.md).

## Limits by plan

| Plan | Series running at once | Times per series per day | Options per variety pool | Most episodes a day (all series) |
| - | - | - | - | - |
| Starter | 1 | 1 | 3 | 1 |
| Creator | 2 | 2 | 5 | 4 |
| Pro | 3 | 3 | 8 | 6 |
| Studio | 5 | 3 | 10 | 6 |
| Enterprise | 7 | 3 | 10 | 7 |

* **Most episodes a day** is your series × times a day, with a ceiling of 6 a day across all your series (7 on Enterprise) — so Starter publishes at most 1 a day and Creator 4.
* **Drafts don't count.** You can keep drafts around; the limit applies when you activate a series.
* **Three times a day at most** per series on every plan — more than that reads as spam to the platforms.
* **Without a paid plan** you can build one draft series and test how the planner reads your brief, but you can't activate it.

## What it costs

Each episode costs the same as making that video by hand, plus the render: **+1 credit** per episode at 720p or **+4 credits** at 1080p (recommended). Series settings show a live estimate in the footer — for example *\~11 credits per episode · \~77 per week — you have 1,418 → \~18 weeks*.

Credits are only spent when an episode is actually produced. Skipped episodes cost nothing, failed work is refunded, and with approvals on you never pay to render something you didn't approve.
