Free and Starter plans include a small "Powered by Dokly" badge in the footer of the published site. Pro plans and above can remove it.
Pro plan or higherWhere the badge is#
On Free and Starter, a single line in the site footer:
Powered by DoklyIt's small, low-contrast, and links to dokly.co. It does not appear in the editor or the dashboard — only on the published site.

How to remove it#
Upgrade to Pro
Settings → Billing → Upgrade. The badge removal is included automatically — no separate toggle needed once you're on Pro.
Confirm it's gone
Visit your published site and scroll to the footer. The badge is removed within ~10 seconds of the upgrade taking effect (CDN cache).
That's it. There's no setting to flip — the badge presence is tied to your plan.
Why we keep it on lower tiers#
Two reasons:
- It's how indie devs find us. Most of our growth comes from someone seeing "Powered by Dokly" in a docs site they like and clicking through.
- It funds the free tier. Free has real costs (storage, bandwidth, support). The badge is part of the trade.
If you're using the free or starter plan and the badge is a dealbreaker — that's a fair signal you've outgrown the tier. Upgrade to Pro and it disappears, alongside everything else Pro unlocks.
What's not part of the badge#
The badge is one small footer line. It's not:
- A floating widget
- A header banner
- An interstitial
- An ad
If you ever see anything more intrusive than a footer line, that's a bug — file an issue.
