What We Set Up So You Don't Have To

We handle the setup and security configuration so you can focus on using your AI assistant, not managing servers.

Pre-Hardened Security Configuration
We configure nftables firewall, fail2ban, AppArmor profiles, and security best practices out of the box. A solid starting point for your AI assistant.
Loopback-Only Dashboard
The web dashboard binds to localhost by default, not exposed to the internet. Access it securely via SSH tunnel when needed.
Multi-Channel Access
Connect via Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, or Signal. One AI assistant accessible from all your favorite messaging apps. Pre-configured plugins ready to activate.
Claude & GPT Models
Works with Anthropic Claude and OpenAI models. Connect with your API key or login directly with your Claude/ChatGPT account token. Your credentials stay on your server.
Desktop Mode (Optional)
Full XFCE desktop where AI operates like a human. It can browse websites, fill forms, click buttons, and complete tasks autonomously. Watch everything happen in real-time via VNC.
Full Root Access
Complete control over your VPS. Install additional tools, change any configuration and connect it to your existing systems.
Your Data, Your Server
Your conversations, files and settings stay on your own server. You choose which model provider and apps it talks to.
Automated Setup
Ready in minutes. SSH in, add your API key and connect your channels; the welcome message guides you through each step.

What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is a free, open-source AI assistant that runs on your own server. Your history and settings stay there, and the model you choose only receives the prompts you send it. Chat through Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, or Signal, and it can do much more than just answer questions.

What It Can Do

AI Agent Capabilities
  • • Browse the web: Navigate, read content, extract data
  • • Fill forms & click: Automate sites like a real user
  • • Execute code: Python, JavaScript, shell in sandboxes
  • • Process files: Documents, images, spreadsheets
  • • Voice mode: ElevenLabs voice synthesis

How You Access It

Multi-Channel Messaging
  • • Telegram: Message like a contact, send images
  • • WhatsApp: Phone or Web, fully integrated
  • • Discord & Slack: Team channels or DMs
  • • Signal: End-to-end encrypted chats (iMessage needs a Mac relay)
  • • Web Dashboard: SSH tunnel access

Why Self-Host?

Your Server, Your Data
  • • Your history: Stays on your server
  • • Full control: Choose model, configure, integrate
  • • Always available: online 24/7, even when your computer is off
  • • No extra subscription: The server plus your API usage
  • • Extensible: Plugins, MCP, open-source

OpenClaw is developed by a global open-source community. Learn more on the official site.

Open Source & Transparent

The whole setup script is open source, so you can inspect every line that runs on your server.

Inspect the Code

See exactly what gets installed on your server

OpenClaw can act on your behalf, so an open install is a real risk. Security researchers have found thousands of exposed instances in the wild running without authentication. We created this hardened setup to fix that.

Our setup script implements 8 layers of security: nftables firewall, fail2ban, SSH hardening, gateway authentication, AppArmor profiles, Docker sandboxing, systemd isolation, and screen lock for desktop mode. You do not have to take our word for it: read the code yourself.

Security researchers and developers are welcome to review the script, report vulnerabilities and send improvements.

Questions Before You Order

What is OpenClaw?
OpenClaw is a free, open-source personal AI assistant that runs on your own infrastructure. It lets you interact with AI models (Claude, GPT) through messaging apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, and Slack, while your history and settings stay on your own server. It can browse the web, run code, and automate tasks.
What security measures are included?
We pre-configure several security layers: nftables firewall with minimal open ports, fail2ban for brute-force protection, AppArmor profiles, automatic security updates, and the OpenClaw dashboard bound to localhost only. This gives you a hardened starting point, though as with any software, security also depends on how you use and configure it.
What's the difference between Server and Desktop mode?
Server mode runs headless with minimal resources (4GB RAM): great for production use where you access AI through messaging apps. Desktop mode includes a full XFCE desktop with real browsers (8GB RAM) where the AI works like a person: browsing sites, filling forms, clicking buttons. You can watch everything via VNC and some websites that block headless browsers work perfectly in Desktop mode.
Do I need technical knowledge?
Minimal. You'll receive connection details via email. SSH to your server, and follow the simple guide shown on login: add your API key, restart the gateway, connect your messaging channel. That's it. Everything else is pre-configured.
How do I connect my AI model?
You have two options: use an API key from Anthropic or OpenAI, or login directly with your existing Claude/ChatGPT account token. Either way, your credentials stay on your server; we never see them.
How do I access my AI after setup?
Mostly through messaging apps. SSH into your server, run a few commands to connect Telegram/WhatsApp/Discord, and then just message your bot like any contact. You can also access the web dashboard via SSH tunnel for advanced configuration.
Can the AI browse websites and run code?
Yes. OpenClaw includes browser control for web interactions: searching, reading pages, filling forms, taking screenshots. It can also execute code in sandboxed environments. These are core features of OpenClaw that make it more than just a chat interface.
How is this different from using ChatGPT or Claude directly?
Three main differences: (1) History: your conversations are stored on your server, and the model provider only sees the prompts you send; (2) Integration: access AI through any messaging app, not just a web browser; (3) Automation: OpenClaw can browse the web, run code, and execute tasks autonomously. It's an AI agent, not just a chatbot.
Why host OpenClaw on a VPS instead of my local machine?
A VPS provides 24/7 availability: your AI assistant is always online, even when your computer is off. It also offers better connectivity for messaging integrations, dedicated resources, and a stable IP address. Plus, you don't need to worry about port forwarding or dynamic DNS.
What if it isn't right for me?
You can ask for a refund within the first 14 days, as described in our terms.
What messaging platforms does OpenClaw support?
OpenClaw supports WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Signal, iMessage, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Matrix, and more. You can connect multiple platforms simultaneously and manage them all from one AI assistant. iMessage needs a Mac running a relay.
