We built OpenClaw Hosting because deploying a personal AI agent should not require a DevOps team.

Why OpenClaw Stands Apart

OpenClaw is not a glorified FAQ responder. It is an autonomous AI agent built to take action:

  • **File operations** - Read, create, organize, and transform documents on your behalf
  • **Terminal execution** - Run scripts, manage processes, and automate command-line workflows
  • **Web navigation** - Browse sites, extract information, fill out forms automatically
  • **50+ tool connections** - Calendar, email, databases, cloud storage, and more
  • **Long-term recall** - Retains your context, preferences, and prior conversations
  • **Self-extending** - Develops new capabilities and refines its own workflows
  • The Challenge We Address

    Self-hosting an AI agent means dealing with provisioning, networking, TLS certificates, and continuous maintenance. We spent months watching skilled engineers burn hours on infrastructure instead of leveraging their AI agent for productive work.

    The pattern was unmistakable: the operational overhead was eclipsing the actual value of having an autonomous assistant.

    How OpenClaw Hosting Solves This

    We strip away the infrastructure burden so you can focus on results:

  • **Three-minute deployment** - From sign-up to a running AI agent in roughly 180 seconds
  • **Fully managed operations** - We handle servers, patches, security updates, and capacity
  • **Bring your own server** - Connect a VPS from DigitalOcean, Vultr, Hetzner, AWS, Akamai, or any Linux machine
  • **Cross-platform messaging** - Talk to your agent via WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, and more
  • Reach Your Agent From Anywhere

    Set up connections to your preferred messaging apps:

  • [WhatsApp connection](/integrations/whatsapp) - Full Business API support with rich media
  • [Telegram connection](/integrations/telegram) - Native bot features including inline queries
  • [Discord connection](/integrations/discord) - Slash commands and interactive components
  • [Slack connection](/integrations/slack) - App Home tab and workflow automation
  • See all available [messaging integrations](/integrations).
