How to move your ManyChat keywords to Clickless

To move your ManyChat keywords to Clickless, paste or upload the keyword list you already use. Nothing in that list goes live until you switch it on, and the switch waits on Instagram comments and DMs, which are rolling out. Your Product Expert link works today.

AI Product Experts that sell. You pay only when they do.

Clickless is brand-expert agents, called Product Experts, that help sell a brand's products and offers 24/7. Clickless: AI Product Experts that sell. You pay only when they do. The commerce layer for AI agents. A creator's Product Expert is a chat that knows the products that creator approves. It answers in your voice, answers the question that comes after a keyword, says it earns a commission before any link, and sends the shopper to the brand's own checkout. Brands pay only when it sells. There is no setup or monthly fee. For a creator, it is free to start, and no following is needed.

What is a keyword in this move?

In ManyChat, a keyword is a word you chose so a comment on a post or reel starts a reply you wrote. ManyChat's Instagram comment trigger, updated October 29, 2026, can watch one post or reel, every post or reel, or the next one you publish. It can start on words you include, skip words you exclude, or start on any comment. It can leave a public reply under the comment and follow up in a DM.

On Clickless, the matching idea is a keyword comment that opens your Product Expert from your own account and keeps answering until checkout, traced to the post. That path is rolling out. Meta's testers have Instagram comments and DMs today. Other accounts get them once Meta approves Clickless's app. App Review was submitted on October 14, 2026.

How do you move the list?

  1. Get your Product Expert link. Sign up at Clickless for creators. Pick the products you would recommend, practice with the Product Expert, and run its final check of 9 test questions before you share it. Web chat at your link is live, including in phone browsers and in-app browsers. YouTube has no DMs, so put the same link in video descriptions and comments. A TikTok ad can open that web chat. TikTok DMs are not a Clickless channel.

  2. Paste or upload the keyword list. Moving from ManyChat is rolling out. Bring the words you already use. Nothing you bring goes live until you switch it on.

  3. Leave the switch off until Instagram is on for your account. Switching keywords on waits on Instagram. Comments and DMs answer Meta's testers today and reach other accounts once Meta approves the app. Share the link in the meantime. Followers can ask the Product Expert at that link this week.

  4. When a keyword is switched on, the Product Expert keeps answering. A person comments that word on a post or ad. The Product Expert DMs them from your own account and stays in the conversation until they are ready for the brand's checkout. The chat is traced to the post. Do not tell followers this is on for every account today.

  5. Keep the old flow pointed at your link until then. A ManyChat keyword can keep sending people to your Product Expert link today. You do not have to turn ManyChat off to start.

What does the follower get after the keyword?

A keyword tool sends the message you designed. A Product Expert answers the next question as well: size, price, shipping, or "will it fit?" It recommends the products you approve. It applies the brand's deal and hands the shopper to the brand's own checkout. The brand stays the merchant. Shoppers pay the brand, and the brand ships. Clickless does not take the payment and does not hold the goods.

The opening message follows this shape: "Hi! I'm {your name}'s product expert, here 24/7 to answer any questions you may have." It never poses as you. Before any link it says it earns a commission, in these words: "Heads up: I earn from links I share." Asked whether it is a person, it says it is your AI product expert, not a person. You can read every conversation and pause the Product Expert everywhere at once.

On a brand that sells on Clickless, the conversation carries a token from the link or comment that opened it. The token rides to the brand's checkout, and the store reports the order back, so the sale is credited to you. An order that did not start from an ad is credited within 60 days of the Product Expert showing the deal.

Payouts are rolling out. Until they switch on, earnings wait in the balance.

How do the two tools differ on a keyword?

  • What starts it

    ManyChat (help center, updated Oct 29, 2026)
    A comment on a post or reel you choose, on words you include, skipping words you exclude, or on any comment. A story reply counts as a contact in ManyChat's billing.
    Clickless Product Expert
    A word in a comment, rolling out on Instagram. A tap on your link, live today.
  • What the person gets next

    ManyChat (help center, updated Oct 29, 2026)
    The flow you built: a public reply, a private message, buttons, and the later steps you add.
    Clickless Product Expert
    Answers to the questions that follow, using the products you approved.
  • Who sends it

    ManyChat (help center, updated Oct 29, 2026)
    The Instagram account you connected.
    Clickless Product Expert
    Your own account, once comments and DMs are on for you. Your link does not need that step.
  • Where checkout happens

    ManyChat (help center, updated Oct 29, 2026)
    Wherever the link in your flow goes.
    Clickless Product Expert
    The brand's own checkout. The sale is traced to the link or comment that started the chat.
  • What it costs to run

    ManyChat (help center, updated Oct 29, 2026)
    A monthly plan billed by active contacts. That model started March 2, 2026, for accounts created on or after that date. ManyChat says plan availability varies by region.
    Clickless Product Expert
    Free to start for creators. No setup or monthly fee. Brands pay only when it sells.
  • Instagram right now

    ManyChat (help center, updated Oct 29, 2026)
    Comment replies and DM follow-ups are part of the product ManyChat documents today.
    Clickless Product Expert
    Comments and DMs are rolling out. Meta's testers have them. Other accounts, once Meta approves the app.

ManyChat defines an active contact, in that same article, as a person who interacted during the current billing month, not as a follower. That article names ManyChat AI, broadcasts, and live chat as ways a stored contact can become active. The comment-trigger article describes tags on a flow. Clickless has no broadcast tool today. A wider look is in ManyChat alternative for creators and Clickless vs keyword auto-DM tools.

When is ManyChat the tool to keep?

Keep ManyChat, or run both, when the job is one of these:

  • You want Instagram comment replies and story replies running on your account today. Clickless comments and DMs are still rolling out.

  • The messages are giveaways, list building, or tags.

  • You want to design each step of a flow, including public replies that rotate.

  • You want several messaging channels in one builder. Confirm the current channel list on ManyChat's pricing page, since availability varies by region (Active Contacts, updated Oct 29, 2026).

Clickless is for the shopping question that follows the keyword, and then the brand's checkout. It is not a list builder, and it is not a coupon or deals site.

6

Can both stay on?

Yes. Leave ManyChat on for giveaways and list building, and send shoppers to your Product Expert. A button or a link inside a ManyChat flow can open your link today. Once Instagram comments are on for your account, the Product Expert can have a keyword of its own. The two tools do not have to share a word.

Do not describe Clickless as answering every comment. A reply to a buying question that is not one of your keywords is part of the same Instagram rollout, and the public wording is "rolling out."

7

What does Meta allow this to do?

Clickless uses Meta's official messaging API. You connect your own professional account through Meta's login. The Product Expert replies to people who message you or comment. It never sends a cold DM. Clickless never uses unofficial tools, burner accounts, or phone farms.

Clickless is not affiliated with Meta or with ManyChat.

ManyChat's comment article, updated October 29, 2026 and read November 3, 2026, says Instagram runs a comment trigger for a person's comment under a post or reel, and that a later comment from that same person with the same keyword does not run it again. ManyChat says the limit applies to every tool on Instagram's API. That is ManyChat's account of the rule, not a Clickless measurement.

What should you do this week?

  1. Put your Product Expert link where a keyword used to send people: the profile, stories, a pinned comment, and YouTube descriptions.

  2. Paste or upload the keyword list so it is waiting, and leave it switched off.

  3. Read what a Product Expert is for the short definition, and how Clickless works for the path from a question to the brand's checkout.

  4. If you also buy ads for a brand, the brand-side note is comment-to-DM for brands. That path is rolling out on the same Meta approval. It is not on for every brand today.

Questions creators ask

Can I move my ManyChat keywords before Instagram is on for every account?

Yes. Paste or upload the list now. Nothing in it goes live until you switch it on, and that switch waits on Instagram comments and DMs. Those are rolling out: Meta's testers have them today, and other accounts get them once Meta approves Clickless's app. Your Product Expert link works today.

Is comment-to-DM live on Clickless?

No. Comment replies and DMs are rolling out. Meta's testers have them today, and other accounts get them once Meta approves Clickless's app. Your Product Expert link is how followers reach your Product Expert today.

What does a creator pay?

It is free to start. There is no setup or monthly fee, and no following is needed. Brands pay only when it sells.

Will the Product Expert pretend to be me?

No. It never poses as you. The opening message says it is your product expert, it says it earns a commission before any link, and asked whether it is a person, it says it is your AI product expert, not a person.

Do I need a big following?

No. Your Product Expert answers whoever asks it, at your link, so it works with any audience.

Should I turn ManyChat off?

Not unless you want to. Keep ManyChat for giveaways, list building, and story replies, which it runs today. Send shopping questions to your Product Expert link, and switch keywords on here once Instagram is on for your account.
