Frequently asked questions
How does Autopilot's Pelosi Tracker+ portfolio work, and what are the associated risks?
The Pelosi Tracker+ automatically replicates equity trades disclosed by Nancy Pelosi and other tracked politicians into a user's personal brokerage account. Because it relies on Periodic Transaction Reports, there is a mandatory reporting lag of up to 45 days, meaning users may buy or sell well after the original transaction. The portfolio is highly concentrated in individual stock picks and carries no diversification mandate, leaving performance entirely dependent on the trading patterns of a single elected official.
Is Autopilot a registered investment advisor?
Autopilot does not publicly claim RIA registration or any equivalent regulatory status. By framing its service as a technology platform that automates trades based on public filings rather than providing personalized advice, it appears to operate outside the typical fiduciary framework that governs investment advisors. This structural choice is central to its business model.
Who creates the investment portfolios on Autopilot?
Portfolios are created both by Autopilot directly and by external individuals the firm calls "Pilots." These include self-identified former Citadel employees, anonymous entities like "Wall St. Rank," and third-party data services such as Unusual Whales and Quiver Quantitative. The platform lists over two dozen Pilots, but Autopilot makes no formal vetting or performance guarantees beyond the displayed return figures.
What investment stages or asset classes does Autopilot target?
Autopilot's model is exclusively focused on publicly traded equities, drawn from the mandated disclosures of politicians and registered fund managers. It does not participate in private markets, venture capital, fixed income, real assets, or any other asset class. The platform has no stage-based investment thesis beyond tracking the public-market activity of its chosen subjects.
Which sectors does Autopilot explicitly avoid?
Autopilot does not impose its own sector exclusions; the sector exposure in any given portfolio is determined solely by the trading activity of the tracked individual or the strategy design of the Pilot. However, the platform's reliance on equity disclosures means it has no natural exposure to private credit, infrastructure, real estate, or other non-publicly-reportable asset classes.
