Thanks for the questions!
You are correct, you are not seeing the Windows Autopatch experience in the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center as you do not meet the licensing pre-requisites.
Windows Autopatch is included with Window 10/11 Enterprise E3 or higher and is not available to Business Premium users, A3/A5 SKUs or as a standalone add on license at this time.
Check out our Prerequisites Doc for more details on licensing requirements for Windows Autopatch.

What a pain not to have autopatch for educational license payers?
What replacement or alternative service do we have?
Being a school, Eductional licenses are designed for us, we have educational licenses, should we also buy enterprise licenses on top of our Edu licenses? or should we kick off Edu licenses and replace with Ent licenses?
What's the point here? I didn't get this?
