In the Part 135 regs you need an autopilot if you are carrying passengers and you are single pilot, then you may use an autopilot in lieu of an SIC. However, if the AP is NOT working then an SIC is required.
When is comes to cargo the FAA does not care. Almost all freight operators operate single pilot. With the exception of the aircraft that require two pilots by the regs.
