FAQs / Common Issues

Q: Do I need AI Crew Pilot to add crew members?
A: No, manual entry is always available. AI parsing is an optional feature for efficiency.

Q: The crew member didn’t receive the activation email.
A: Check for typos in the email address and verify the email did not go to junk/spam. Resend from the crew member’s profile if needed.
