    What is Autopilot in Lemwatch?

    Autopilot watches your sites, triages incidents, and executes safe remediations — from acking flappy alerts to re-running suspected false positives.

    Autopilot safety rails

    Guardrails that stop Autopilot from doing anything destructive — rate limits, confidence thresholds, blast radius caps, and one-click kill switch.

    Setting Up Alerts

    Configure 11 notification channels — email, push, chat, on-call, and automation tools.

    How do CSS selectors work in visual monitoring?

    Restrict visual monitoring to a specific region using a CSS selector so Lemwatch only diffs the part of the page that matters, like pricing or hero.
