# Auto-engagement

> Comment on, like or repost your own post automatically, a few minutes after it goes live.

Auto-engagement queues actions on a post that run after it publishes: a first comment with the link, a like from your
company page, a repost from a teammate's account. Set it on the post, and Orbitwrite does it at the right moment.

> **Note:** Auto-engagement is part of the Pro and Advanced plans, which include a monthly allowance of interactions.

## Add it to a post

In the composer, open the channel's auto-engagement options and turn on what you want:

- **Auto-comment**: one or more comments, each from a chosen account, each after a delay you set (five minutes by
  default). A common use is putting the link in the first comment, on networks that show posts with links less.
- **Auto-react**: a like from one of your accounts.
- **Auto-repost**: a repost from one of your accounts.

Each action can come from any channel in the workspace on the same network, so your company account can like your
founder's post.

## Where it works

| Network        | Comment                       | Like | Repost |
| -------------- | ----------------------------- | ---- | ------ |
| X              | Yes                           | Yes  | Yes    |
| Bluesky        | Yes                           | Yes  | Yes    |
| Mastodon       | Yes                           | Yes  | Yes    |
| Threads        | Yes                           |      | Yes    |
| Facebook Pages | Yes                           | Yes  |        |
| LinkedIn       | From the posting account only |      |        |

On LinkedIn, only a comment written when the post is composed, posted by the account that published it, is allowed.
LinkedIn's terms treat automated reactions, reshares and comments from other accounts as artificial engagement.

## Defaults for a channel

To start every new post from a channel with the same actions, set them under the channel's settings in
**Settings → Channels**. Anyone can change them on a particular post.

## Notify Slack or Discord

The same panel can **Notify Slack** or **Notify Discord** when the post goes live, by posting to a channel you pick.
See [Notifications](https://orbitwrite.com/docs/guides/workspace/notifications).

## Auto-DM

To message the people who repost or reply to a post, see [Auto-DM](https://orbitwrite.com/docs/guides/grow/auto-dm).
