How Autopilot Works

​

Overview

Autopilot is Sight AI’s hands-free content generation system. Once activated, it automatically researches keywords relevant to your business and generates fresh, SEO-optimized articles every day — without any manual input. You can configure Autopilot to produce between 1 and 30 articles per day, depending on your plan and content goals.

​

How It Works

​

Step 1: Keyword Research

When you activate Autopilot, Sight AI analyzes your website, industry, and target audience to build a pool of 90 targeted keyword phrases. These keywords are strategically selected to drive organic traffic and improve your AI visibility.

​

Step 2: Instant First Article

As soon as Autopilot is activated, Sight AI immediately generates your first article using the highest-priority keyword from the pool. You’ll see it in your Planner within minutes.

​

Step 3: Daily Generation Cycle

From that point on, Autopilot runs on a daily cycle:

1. Selects the next keyword(s) from your queue based on priority and relevance.
2. Generates articles using the full multi-agent AI pipeline (research, strategy, writing, editing, SEO, visuals, and linking).
3. Publishes articles to your connected CMS automatically.
4. Moves to the next keyword(s) the following day.

This cycle repeats every day until the keyword pool is exhausted, at which point Sight AI generates a new batch of keywords.

​

Configuring Articles Per Day

You can adjust how many articles Autopilot generates each day to match your content strategy:

• 1 article/day (default) — A steady, sustainable pace. Great for most businesses.
• 2—3 articles/day — Ideal for building topical authority quickly in a competitive space.
• 5—30 articles/day — Aggressive content production for rapid growth, large sites, or agencies managing multiple brands.

To change your daily article count, go to Settings > Autopilot and adjust the slider.

​

Activating Autopilot

1. Navigate to Autopilot in the left sidebar.
2. Review your site and content settings.
3. Set your preferred articles per day.
4. Click Activate Autopilot.

Sight AI will begin keyword research immediately and generate your first article within minutes.

Managing Autopilot

​

Turning Off Autopilot

You can turn off Autopilot at any time directly from the Planner:

1. Navigate to Planner in the left sidebar.
2. Locate the Autopilot toggle at the top of the Planner page.
3. Toggle Autopilot off.

Turning off Autopilot stops daily generation but preserves your keyword queue so you can resume later without losing progress.

​

Turning Autopilot Back On

To resume Autopilot, go back to the Planner and toggle Autopilot on. It picks up right where it left off in your keyword queue.

​

Keyword Queue

View and manage your keyword queue from the Autopilot dashboard. You can:

• See upcoming keywords and their priority order.
• Add custom keywords to the queue.
• Remove keywords you don’t want articles for.
• Reorder keywords to change generation priority.

​

Best Practices

• Let it run — Autopilot works best with consistency. Give it at least 2—4 weeks to build momentum before evaluating results.
• Review generated articles — While Autopilot produces high-quality content, periodically review articles to ensure they align with your brand voice.
• Add custom keywords — Supplement the auto-generated keyword pool with your own ideas to cover topics specific to your business.
• Monitor performance — Use the AI Visibility dashboard and your analytics to track how Autopilot content performs over time.
