Warm-up
Using a new account or profile like a normal person for days or weeks before launching ads or other risky actions, so it builds history, cookies and an ordinary pattern of use before it carries any risk.
Also called: account warm-up, account warming, warming up accounts.
A warm-up usually means logging in on a schedule, browsing, following pages, filling in the profile and making small, normal actions before the first campaign. Antidetects add tools for it: Dolphin{anty}'s Cookie Robot visits a list of sites to collect cookies, and no-code automation and synchronizers repeat routine steps across profiles.
The risk is uniformity. Check Point's October 2026 report notes that account warming simulated by antidetect tools over several weeks "may be indistinguishable from legitimate organic behavior without cross-referencing device fingerprint consistency over time." In other words, detection teams are told to check whether the device stays the same, and a batch of accounts warmed with identical steps at identical times is the kind of pattern behavior analysis looks for.
Warm up each account in its own profile with its own proxy, vary timing and actions, and keep the fingerprint unchanged from the first day to the first ad.
