Autopilot

Your docs, kept in sync with the code that ships. Connect a repo. When repository events arrive, DocuWriter looks at what changed and tells you which pages may need updating.


How it works

Preview mode (Trial / Pro) lets you see exactly what Autopilot would suggest, free. When you upgrade, the same suggestions become apply-able.


When Autopilot fires

Autopilot runs when a connected repository sends a supported event for a linked branch or pull request.

    Repo[Repository event] --> Supported{Supported event?}
    Supported -->|Yes| Run[Autopilot runs]
    Supported -->|No| Skip[Skipped]
    Draft[Draft PRs] --> Skip

Supported event timing can differ by provider. GitHub supports open, reopened, updated, and merged pull request events. Other providers may trigger primarily on merged or fulfilled pull request events, depending on the event data they send to DocuWriter.ai.

You pick which events run for each repo link when that option is available.


What gets skipped (at no cost)

  • Lockfile-only changes: package-lock.json, composer.lock, yarn.lock, and similar
  • Docs-only changes: *.md, README*, docs/**, CHANGELOG*
  • Tiny changes: fewer than 3 lines

Triage runs before any AI call. Skipped events show in the Activity tab with a clear status.


Credits, simply

Trial / Pro: $0. Preview never touches your credits. Enterprise / Unlimited: 1 credit per suggestion generated (not per click). Apply, auto-apply, and dismiss are free.

Example: a PR touches 3 doc pages -> 3 suggestions generated -> 3 credits.
