Set your frequency. Jottler handles the rest.
Autopilot is fully autonomous writing and publishing on your schedule. Configure how many articles you want per day, and Jottler researches, writes, and publishes them without you lifting a finger.

A 4-phase cron that never sleeps
Every 2 hours, a Vercel cron job fires. Every 30 minutes, a pg_cron job inside Postgres runs recovery checks. Together, they keep your publishing pipeline moving 24/7.
Auto-Approve Topics
When your approved topic queue is empty, autopilot scans pending topics and auto-approves the highest-scoring candidates so the pipeline never stalls.
Stuck Recovery
Any article stuck in a processing state for more than 10 minutes is automatically detected and reset. Autopilot retries the article from its last successful phase.
Write Articles
The cron picks up the next approved topic, runs the full 12-agent content engine, and moves the finished article into review or directly to published status.
Smart Auto-Replenish
When the approved queue drops below your configured threshold, autopilot generates a fresh batch of data-backed topics from your taxonomy and keyword research.

Configure once, publish on schedule
Step 1
Pick your frequency
Choose from 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, or 10 articles per day. This controls how aggressively autopilot publishes content.
Step 2
Toggle autopilot on
A single switch in your project dashboard activates the autonomous loop. The cron starts on the next 2-hour cycle.
Step 3
Watch articles ship
Autopilot approves topics, runs the content engine, publishes to your CMS, and replenishes the queue — all without you.

Your pipeline never runs dry
Traditional content workflows break when you run out of topic ideas. Autopilot monitors your approved topic queue and triggers auto-replenish when it drops below a healthy threshold. New topics are generated from your taxonomy, niche keywords, and real search volume data — then scored and queued automatically.

Guardrails you can trust
Autonomous does not mean uncontrolled. Every autopilot cycle checks daily caps, monthly allocations, and article health before doing anything.
Daily cap enforcement
Your configured articles-per-day frequency is enforced using timezone-correct counting. Publish 1, 3, 5, or 10 per day and autopilot stops precisely at your limit.
Monthly plan limits
Every plan has a monthly article ceiling (Starter 15, Growth 40, Scale 100, Max 250). Autopilot tracks usage and halts before you exceed your allocation.
Timezone-correct counting
Daily resets happen at midnight in your project timezone, not UTC. A Postgres RPC function ensures articles are counted against the correct local day.
Stuck article detection
Articles that hang mid-pipeline are detected within 10 minutes and automatically reset. No manual intervention needed, no lost work.
