Engage Settings

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Engage settings are under Settings → Engage. This is where you configure how your outreach engine runs — lead approval, ownership, and hot-lead scoring.

Lead approval

Choose whether new leads are automatically activated or require manual approval before outreach begins. Lead Approval Mode sets the org-wide default:

  • Autopilot — leads are automatically activated for outreach as soon as they are assigned.

  • Copilot — new leads land in the Tasks queue and wait for manual approval before any message is sent.

This is the default applied across your workspace. You can then choose whether to keep or override the mode in each sequence. See 📄 Approving or declining a lead (Copilot mode)for how approvals work in the queue.

Assignment

Decide how new leads are assigned an owner across your sequences by default. Existing assignments are preserved when you switch modes.

Owner assignment

Behaviour

Per sequence

Assignment follows the configuration set on each sequence.

Per contact

All future tasks for a contact go to the team member who owns that contact.

Per company

All tasks for contacts at a company go to the team member who owns that company. Recommended for ABM and account-based outbound.

Warning: this is a global setting that applies to the whole workspace. It should be set up during onboarding and never touched again. We do not recommend to change this setting after onboarding.

Please speak with your workspace's admin before making changes to this setting.

Hot Lead Detection

Configure how hot leads are detected based on engagement activity.

Setting

What it does

Open Points

Points awarded when a lead opens an email.

Click Points

Points awarded when a lead clicks a link.

Threshold

Minimum points required to mark a lead as hot.

Time Window (Days)

Number of days to look back for engagement events.

Example: open points 1, click points 2, threshold 6, time window 7 — over the last 7 days, any lead reaching 6 points is marked hot, with clicks weighted twice as much as opens.
