SettingWhat it means
Tell me, don't actEric tells you what he finds and does nothing else.
Ask before anything goes liveThe default. Eric prepares changes and waits for your yes.
Get on with the small stuffNot available during the beta. Eric says: "Autopilot is switched off during the beta, so I'll ask you before any change."

Only the owner can change this setting.

Pause Eric

On Autopilot, turn on Pause me. Eric keeps watching and keeps telling you things, but doesn't act on anything without you.

What Eric does after you say yes

  • If a change measures worse, he puts your original back by himself, and tells you.
  • If you approved something that has to wait (for example another test is on that page), he starts it when the page is free.
  • When a change wins, he keeps it for everyone, unless he asks you first.
