OpenClaw, installed. And locked down.
OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot and Moltbot) is a free, open-source AI agent you run yourself. Installing it is the easy part. Making sure it can't leak your data or act on a stranger's instructions is the part we do.
01 · In plain English
OpenClaw is an AI agent you host yourself, on a small server or a spare computer. You message it from a chat app and it can work through tasks using the accounts you give it.
- You run it. It runs on a machine you own or rent. You also need an AI model to power it, paid to that provider.
- It has real access. Email, calendar, files, a browser. That's the point of it, and the risk.
- Security is the job. Self-hosted agents can be tricked by instructions hidden in emails or web pages. We set it up to limit the damage if that happens.
02 · What you get
One fixed price for teams of up to 20 people (bigger team? ask us). Here's everything that's included.
Where it runs, chosen with you
A small cloud server or a computer at your office. We tell you the running costs before you commit.
Installed and hardened
Separate accounts for the agent, no admin rights, secrets stored safely, remote access locked down.
Connected to your chat app
So you can message it, with only approved people able to give it instructions.
Limits on what it can touch
Accounts connected one at a time, read-only first, with a person approving anything it sends or changes.
Your first tasks
Two or three real jobs set up and tested with you.
Your AI policy
A short, plain-English policy written with you: what the tool may touch, what must never go in, and who checks its work.
A one-page handover
Who your admin is, how to add and remove people, what's connected, and how to switch it off. Everything you need to run it without us.
03 · Who pays what
| What | Paid to | How much |
|---|---|---|
| AI Setup | AI Workers | $1,500 once, fixed |
| Server or computer | Your hosting provider, directly | A small monthly cloud bill, or hardware you already own |
| AI model usage | The model provider, directly | Pay as you go; we estimate it with you |
| Ongoing support (optional) | AI Workers | Only if you want it; ask us |
04 · Before you start
- Prompt injection is real. An email or web page can contain instructions aimed at your agent. Limits and human approval are how you contain it.
- Someone has to maintain it. Open-source software needs updates. We show you how, or can do it as ongoing support.
- It might not be the right tool. For most teams, a properly set-up Claude or ChatGPT does the job with less to look after. We'll tell you honestly.

05 · Other tools we set up
- Claude: Claude on a business plan, connected to the tools you approve, with Cowork and Claude Code if you need them.
- ChatGPT: Your team off personal ChatGPT accounts and onto a business plan you own, with GPTs built for your work.
- Microsoft Copilot: Copilot in Microsoft 365, with your sharing permissions checked first so it can't surface the wrong files.
- Grok Bot: An AI agent that works through tasks for your team. We set the limits before it starts.
- Hermes Agent: Nous Research's open-source agent, installed on hardware you own with limits on what it can reach.
Questions
What is OpenClaw?
A free, open-source AI agent you run on your own server or computer. It was previously called Clawdbot and then Moltbot.
How much does OpenClaw setup cost?
$1,500, fixed, paid to us. You also pay for the server (or use one you have) and for the AI model it uses, directly to those providers.
Is OpenClaw safe for business?
It can be, with limits. Out of the box it can reach whatever you connect. We give it its own accounts, the least access it needs, and a person approving anything that leaves the business.
Can't I install it myself?
Yes, and plenty of people do. What you're paying us for is the security setup, the limits, and tested tasks that work for your business.
Do you also set up Hermes Agent?
Yes. See our Hermes Agent setup page. We'll help you choose between them.
