<sup>2</sup> For Autopilot for Everyone, the following limitations apply:

* **Personal Workspace**—Automations created by users
* **Autopilot**—Automations installed and deployed with the Autopilot for Everyone installation
* **Tool Automations** and subfolders—Out-of-the-box automations deployed by Autopilot for Everyone administrators

<sup>3</sup> Previously known as **Autopilot Express**, and as **Automation Express** in legacy assignments and default groups. The product retains the earlier names for existing assignments. Refer to [Express User license](#express-user-license).

:::important
If you, as an administrator, previously deployed out-of-the-box automations from the Marketplace solution, we recommend:
* reinstalling the out-of-the-box automation bundles from the Autopilot for Everyone Admin experience, and
* removing any manually deployed out-of-the-box automations.

### AI units consumption

Each Autopilot for Everyone action consumes one AI unit. This consumption begins after the monthly limit and any administrator-granted top-up are spent.

### Platform units consumption

Each Autopilot for Everyone action consumes 0.2 platform units. This consumption begins after the monthly limit and any administrator-granted top-up are spent.

### Platform units consumption for Serverless robots

Autopilot for Everyone uses Serverless robots to run cross-platform automations. Each user receives a monthly grant of 300 free platform units. When you consume this grant, to continue running automations, Serverless robots draw platform units from the tenant allocated pool.

## AI and Agentic usage pool

All Enterprise licensed users receive a monthly AI and Agentic usage pool, shared across UiPath AI and Agentic products and usable for Autopilot for Everyone. The pool replaces the previous Autopilot actions entitlement of 50 actions per user per year.

When you use the AI and Agentic usage pool for Autopilot for Everyone, usage is drawn from the pool per action. The pool capacity varies by user license, so the number of actions it covers differs, as shown in the following table.

| **User license** | **AI and Agentic usage pool** |
| --- | --- |
| Basic User | Basic Usage Pool (~50 Autopilot actions / month) |
| Plus User | Basic x7.5 (~375 Autopilot actions / month) |
| Pro User | Basic x20 (~1,000 Autopilot actions / month) |
| App Tester | Basic x7.5 (~375 Autopilot actions / month) |
| App Tester Developer | Basic x20 (~1,000 Autopilot actions / month) |

When the monthly limit and any administrator-granted top-up are spent, Autopilot for Everyone continues by drawing from paid units: AI Units on Flex, or 0.2 Platform Units per action on Unified Pricing.

The limit of 6 actions per user per minute still applies. It is a technical rate limit rather than a licensing entitlement, so it applies to all users regardless of license.

For details on how the monthly limit, top-ups, and paid-unit fallback work, refer to [AI and Agentic usage pool](https://docs.uipath.com/automation-cloud/automation-cloud/latest/admin-guide/ai-and-agentic-usage-pool).

:::important
The AI and Agentic usage pool applies to Automation Cloud and Test Cloud only, on the Unified Pricing and Flex licensing plans. It is not available on Community. In Automation Suite, Autopilot for Everyone action entitlements are unchanged at 50 Autopilot actions per user per year.

## Express User license

**Express User** (previously known as **Autopilot Express**, and as **Automation Express** in legacy assignments and default groups) is a user license intended for end users who run automations rather than build them. The product retains the earlier names for existing assignments, so you may see all three names referring to the same license.

The following table summarizes what an Express User can and cannot do.

| Capability | Express User | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Develop in Studio Web | ✅ | Full Studio Web access. |
| Use StudioX | ⚠️ Read-only (attended mode) | StudioX launches in read-only mode. Authoring and editing are not available. |
| Use Studio Desktop | ❌ | Studio Desktop development was included with the original Automation Express license but is not included with Express User. |
| Run personal automations in **Personal Workspace** | ✅ | Refer to [Prerequisites for Autopilot for Everyone](https://docs.uipath.com/autopilot/other/latest/overview/prerequisites). |
| Run out-of-the-box automations in **Autopilot** and **Tool Automations** folders | ✅ | Includes automations installed by Autopilot for Everyone administrators. |
| Run automations in other Orchestrator folders | ❌ | Restricted since the [Autopilot for Everyone 2025.7.1 breaking change](https://docs.uipath.com/autopilot/other/latest/release-notes/2025-7-1#breaking-change). |
| Receive Studio Web governance policies | ❌ | Express User accounts are ungovernable. Studio Web policies, including preview activities and packages, do not apply. |
| Have client update policies edited | ❌ | The update policy is locked to the latest enterprise version. Refer to [Auto-updating client components](https://docs.uipath.com/orchestrator/automation-cloud/latest/user-guide/auto-updating-client-components#configuring-policies-for-users%2Fuser-groups). |
| See the Automation Dashboard in UiPath Assistant 2025.10 | ❌ | The dashboard does not display for Express User accounts in Assistant 2025.10. |
| Add more than one process to a workspace | ❌ | From **Workspace > Automation > Add process**, only one process can be added. |
| Receive Studio Desktop packages published to their workspace | ❌ | Users with an Automation Developer license cannot publish from Studio Desktop to an Express User workspace. |

### Not available with Express User

The following capabilities are not included with Express User. They were available with the original Automation Express license and are the most common source of confusion during license renewal:

* Studio Desktop authoring
* StudioX authoring (StudioX launches only in read-only mode)
* Running automations in Orchestrator folders other than **Personal Workspace**, **Autopilot**, and **Tool Automations**
* Studio Web governance through Automation Ops policies
* Editing the client update policy

:::important
Express User licensing is not available in Automation Suite. For details, refer to [Autopilot for Everyone feature comparison](https://docs.uipath.com/autopilot/other/latest/user-guide/autopilot-for-everyone-feature-comparison).
