Understanding Autopilot in Vyvern

Learn how Vyvern Autopilot automatically approves proposals, controls workflow priorities, and protects organizations through configurable approval settings.

Last updated July 1, 2026

What is Autopilot?

Autopilot is Vyvern’s automated proposal approval system.

When enabled, Autopilot can automatically approve AI-generated proposals that match your organization’s configured rules and restrictions. This allows organizations and MSPs to streamline workflow deployment without manually reviewing every proposal.


Enabling Autopilot

To configure Autopilot:

  1. Navigate to the Proposals page

  2. Open the Autopilot dropdown in the top-right corner

  3. Enable Autopilot Mode

Once enabled, Vyvern will begin evaluating incoming proposals against your configured approval settings.


Setting the Maximum Auto-Approve Priority

Autopilot allows you to control which proposal priorities can be automatically approved.

Available approval levels include:

  • Low

  • Medium

  • High

  • Critical

For example:

  • Selecting Medium allows Autopilot to automatically approve Low and Medium priority proposals only

  • High and Critical proposals would still require manual review

This helps organizations maintain tighter control over higher-risk operations.


Eligible Campaign Types

You can also choose which workflow categories are eligible for automatic approval.

Supported campaign types include:

  • Social Engineering

  • Phishing Campaign

  • New Target

  • Permission Request

  • Technical Testing

  • Physical Security

  • Compliance Check

Disabling a category ensures proposals of that type always require manual review.


Compliance Review Protection

The Require compliance review setting prevents Autopilot from approving workflows if compliance checks are still pending.

This adds an additional layer of organizational safety and approval validation before workflows are executed.


Autopilot for New Organizations

For newly created organizations, Vyvern temporarily limits Autopilot functionality during the onboarding phase.

The first workflows generated for a new organization are manually reviewed by the Vyvern team to:

  • Ensure the AI understands the organization correctly

  • Validate workflow safety and platform usage

  • Confirm organizational restrictions and targeting are appropriate

  • Reduce inaccurate or unsafe proposal generation early in deployment

After this initial review period, organizations can fully utilize Autopilot according to their configured settings.


Recommended Usage

Autopilot is best used after:

  • Initial organization onboarding is complete

  • Employee and workflow data have been validated

  • Your organization understands its preferred approval thresholds

Many organizations begin with stricter approval settings and gradually increase automation over time.
