# Warming & Engage (/docs/creators/managed-accounts/warming-and-engage)

How warmup sessions establish your managed account, how to follow them, and how to add more.

A brand-new account that starts posting on day one looks like spam. **Warmup** is normal activity in your topics, done by a person from the account, so it looks established before its first post.

## How warmup works [#how-warmup-works]

For each of your topics, a person searches it from the account, watches matching videos, and likes, saves and comments the way a real viewer would. Warmup runs in **sessions of 3 topics**. Every new account gets **3 warmup sessions (9 topics)**; Express accounts get 1 session (3 topics). Each topic comes with a recording as proof.

Your first posts go out once warmup finishes.

## Follow warmup [#follow-warmup]

Open the account's **Warming** tab. Each run shows its status (**Scheduled**, **In progress**, **Finished**, **Finished, not all verified** or **Stopped early**) and totals for videos watched, likes, saves and comments.

Each topic shows what was done (**Watched**, **Liked**, **Saved**, **Commented**) and its status: **Waiting**, **In progress**, **Verified** or **Needs attention**. Click **Watch the proof recording** to see it.

## Add more warmup [#add-more-warmup]

Accounts that have gone quiet or were paused can be warmed up again. Once a warmup has finished, the **Warming** tab offers **More warmup sessions**: click **Add warmup sessions**, or add them from the **Add-ons** tab.

You can add **1 warmup session** (3 topics) or **3 warmup sessions** (9 topics). Current prices are on <UiPath>Managed accounts › Pricing</UiPath>.

Warmup is paid from the account's balance. Only one warming run can go at a time.

## Engage [#engage]

Engage (comments and replies posted from your account) has its own **Engage** tab. If you don't see the tab, Engage isn't available on your account.
