OpenClaw setup is harder than it should be

One Reddit user spent 30–40 hours configuring their agent. A setup tutorial hit 228,000 views because that many people were stuck. And those who do get it running? 135,000 instances are sitting exposed on the internet right now — with API keys in plaintext.

The DIY way

60+ minutes if you're lucky

Install Docker & Docker Compose
Clone repo, configure .env file
Set up Node.js 22, build gateway
Configure API keys (4+ providers)
Set up messaging platforms
Configure firewall & reverse proxy
Set up SSL certificates
Hope it survives a reboot

How it works

From zero to running agent

01

Choose your model

Claude, GPT, DeepSeek, Gemini — pick any model or let smart routing choose the best one per task. Your agent remembers previous conversations automatically.

02

Connect your channels

Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Signal, Email — all connected from day one. Just sign in and go.

03

Set your budget and go

Choose a hard monthly cap. Smart routing keeps costs down. Real-time dashboard shows exactly where every dollar goes.

Cost controls

Never get a surprise bill again

Without cost controls, a single runaway loop can burn through $200 in a weekend. One Reddit user reported spending $100/day on Claude Sonnet alone. We're the only OpenClaw host with hard spending caps and smart model routing — nobody else even offers this.

60–90%

typical savings on API costs with smart model routing

Smart model routing

Simple tasks go to cheap models. Complex tasks go to Opus. Automatic, invisible, saves 60-90% on tokens.

Hard monthly cap

Set your ceiling. When you hit it, your agent pauses — not your wallet. Zero other hosts have this.

Real-time dashboard

See exactly what each task costs. Per-agent breakdowns. Per-model tracking. No silent fallbacks.

Token optimization

Automatic context compression, smart caching, and loop detection prevent your agent from burning tokens.

Security

Your agent, locked down

Sandboxed environments

Each agent runs in its own isolated container with dedicated resources. If one gets compromised, the rest stay safe. Most competitors run agents on shared infrastructure.

Skill malware scanning

Every skill is scanned before install. 341 malicious skills were found in the official marketplace — we vet everything before it touches your agent.

Permission boundaries

Control what your agent can access. Read-only email? Write to CRM? You set the rules.

Encrypted credential vault

API keys stored with AES-256-GCM encryption. Never exposed in plaintext — unlike the 135,000 instances with exposed credentials right now.

No exposed endpoints

Your agent isn't discoverable on the internet. We proxy all traffic through Cloudflare — no open ports, no public URLs to find, no exposed control panels.

Prompt injection protection

Input sanitization and output filtering stop malicious web pages from tricking your agent into leaking API keys.

Workflow templates

Ready-made AI workflows

Pre-built, security-audited templates. One click to install, fully configured.

Popular

Email Assistant

Scans 50+ emails in seconds. Flags urgent items, drafts replies, archives newsletters. One user saves 45 minutes every morning.

What people are saying

This has taken 30-40 hours of constant back and forth, debugging, having the agent tell me it's working when it's not working.

I'm an airline pilot. I send the PDF via Telegram and it sends me back a clean version with everything I need. It syncs my calendar and gives me weather briefings before each flight.

Watch your session tokens! OpenClaw will throw all your session memory at a prompt and loop — you can watch money burn.

I sent it a WhatsApp voice note asking to book a restaurant. It couldn't find a booking form, so it used their contact page. Ten minutes later I had an email confirmation.

OpenClaw wrappers are doing $6K-$32K/mo in revenue. But most just slap a UI on Docker and charge you $40. No cost controls, no security, no SSH.
