How to remove Powered by Manychat from Instagram DMs
If your Instagram DM automation shows Powered by Manychat, the cause is usually the Manychat Free plan branding. Manychat says this branding appears the first time you message a contact, and removing it means moving to a paid Manychat plan.
Why the label appears
Manychat Free includes Manychat branding. Their pricing and help docs describe Powered by Manychat as a first-message branding text when you message a contact.
The official fix
The straightforward way to remove Manychat branding is to upgrade to a paid Manychat plan. If you only need Instagram comment-to-DM automation, that may be more platform than you need.
The Instagram-first alternative
CommentKeyword is built specifically for Instagram comment-to-DM campaigns, so you can send automated DMs without Manychat branding and without paying for channels you do not plan to use.
If your goal is Instagram comment-to-DM, compare the whole free tier
