How do I warm up a new LinkedIn account before automating?
Answered by the Crispy team · July 17, 2026
Quick answer
Warm-up is optional. Crispy does not start it when you connect an account. When you enable the auto preset, it ramps for 14 days and only lowers the cap.
Crispy does not start warm-up when you connect an account. You start it if you want a ramp. First turn on advanced tools for the account in Security settings.
The auto preset
When you enable the auto preset, the ramp lasts 14 days. Invitations start at 3 per day and rise to 15 per day. Messages start at 10 per day and rise to 100 per day. Profile views start at 25 per day and rise to 150 per day. Engagement starts at 10 per day and rises to 80 per day. Searches start at 30 per day and rise to 200 per day. Posts start at 1 per day and rise to 5 per day.
What warm-up changes
Warm-up only lowers the cap. It never raises a cap above the daily cap already in force. An aggressive preset uses 7 days. A custom preset uses the start, target, and ramp you set.
Warm-up and your daily limits
Warm-up lowers how much Crispy sends while an account is new. Daily limits stop each action when the count is reached. You can set them lower.
What no tool can promise
Warm-up does not change LinkedIn's rules. LinkedIn's terms do not allow most outside tools, so no tool can promise zero risk. Crispy keeps your activity inside daily limits.
Enable warm-up yourself. First turn on advanced tools for the account in Security settings. The auto preset takes 14 days and only lowers the cap.
