Radar Autopilot: What It Does by Itself

The Radar Autopilot is a mode in which the system updates the strategy and launches promotions on pages at the top threshold for the amount you set, once a month by itself. This is the only place in the service where money is deducted without your involvement at the moment of deduction, so let's break it down honestly and in detail.

How to Enable

1. In Radar, set the amount "how much you pay per month", priority, and schedule ("Immediately" or "Spread" up to 4 weeks).
2. Check the table "What We Will Launch" — this is the strategy for the first month; it can be adjusted.
3. Select "Every month — autopilot" and click "Enable autopilot and launch". Confirm the amount — the first month will start immediately.

The same is available in the app — on the "Strategy and Launch" screen.

What Happens Next

• First month — exactly the strategy that was on the screen: the same pages, cascades, and start days.
• Every 30 days — Radar takes fresh data from Search Console, skips pages that have been promoted in the last 60 days (counting from the start of the cascade), and collects a new plan with the same priority and schedule for the same amount.
• One wave per month. Stretching on autopilot — no more than 4 weeks, so waves do not overlap. 1–2 months before the peak season, cascades start immediately.

Money

• Only from the PromoPilot balance. The autopilot never touches the card.
• No more than your amount for 30 days. The monthly budget includes both already deducted and what will be deducted on start days.
• Deduction — on the start day of each cascade, not all at once.
• Insufficient balance — we launch for as much as available, the rest is caught up after replenishment; the planned cascade waits for replenishment for up to 14 days and informs about it.
• Discount. The larger the monthly amount, the cheaper the cascades (up to -20%), within the overall discount ceiling. If the personal discount is already maximum, the autopilot retains it.

Safeguards

How to Monitor the Autopilot

• Summary "Autopilot is On" — at the top of Radar, on the dashboard, and on the main screen of the app: for each project the monthly amount, the bar "started / waiting", the nearest start, published links, how much has been spent and how much will be deducted on start days, when the next month is.
• In the project — for pages managed by the autopilot, there is a mark "autopilot · start 18.10", "autopilot · ongoing" or "autopilot · repeat from 09.12".
• In balance history — each deduction as a separate line, just like with manual launches.

Manual Promotion Alongside Autopilot

Any page can be additionally promoted manually — as a cascade in the project or by adding it to the Radar plan (autopilot pages are marked there 🤖). If the page is already managed by the autopilot, a warning will appear before manual launch: re-promoting it before the end of 60 days is usually unnecessary — you will pay twice for one page.

How to Enable Cautiously

1. Start with the "Optimum" that Radar sets on the slider.
2. After a month, verify deductions with the result from Pulse.
3. Only after that increase the amount.

When It’s Better to Turn It Off

If you are redesigning the site, changing page addresses, or there is a seasonal decline. It can be turned off in the "Launch Strategy" block by clicking the "Turn Off" button — immediately. Already launched cascades will continue to work, no new deductions will occur. How the plan is arranged is explained in the article strategy under budget.
