Your Personal AI Assistant, Fully Under Your Control

OpenClaw is a free, open-source, self-hosted AI assistant that connects to the messaging apps you already use, including WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. Unlike a typical chatbot, it can take real action on your behalf: browsing the web, managing files, running commands, and scheduling tasks, all from a single server that you control. With OpenClaw VPS hosting, you get full ownership of your assistant's environment, including its memory, configuration, and connected accounts.

Setting up OpenClaw on a VPS is straightforward and is commonly done using Docker. The general steps include:

• Selecting and deploying a VPS plan
• Accessing the server using SSH
• Updating the operating system and installing required packages
• Installing OpenClaw using Docker (recommended)
• Connecting your preferred messaging channels and AI provider keys
• Configuring environment variables for security and storage
  
  

Most users follow the official OpenClaw documentation, and our VPS servers are fully compatible with these installation methods.

Yes. OpenClaw hosting on a VPS can be highly secure when best practices are followed. The VPS provider secures the physical infrastructure, networking, and virtualization layer. As the server owner, you control:

• Operating system updates and firewall rules
• HTTPS/SSL encryption for any exposed endpoints
• Channel allow-lists and access controls
• API key storage and credential security
  
  

With proper configuration, a self-hosted OpenClaw setup offers strong data privacy, making it suitable for both personal and business use.

Yes. OpenClaw is built around a single gateway that can serve several channels at once, including WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, iMessage, and Microsoft Teams. Since it is self-hosted, you can enable as many channels as your plan and API usage allow, without paying extra per platform.

OpenClaw and hosted chatbots serve different purposes. OpenClaw is ideal for users who want full control, persistent memory, and the ability to let an assistant act on real infrastructure, such as running commands or managing files. Being open-source, it allows custom skills and integrations without platform limits when self-hosted. A hosted chatbot, on the other hand, is designed for simplicity and requires no server management. The right choice depends on your comfort with self-hosting, your privacy requirements, and how much autonomy you want your assistant to have.

Support is divided into two areas:

• VPS Support: We assist with server uptime, virtualization, networking, and basic OS-level issues.
• OpenClaw Application Support: For channel setup, skills, and assistant configuration, users can rely on the official OpenClaw documentation and community resources.

This separation ensures reliable infrastructure while keeping full flexibility for application-level customization.

Yes. OpenClaw supports enterprise-oriented capabilities for teams that need more oversight, including policy-based execution guardrails, review workflows for proposed skills, and audit-friendly logging. This makes it suitable for organizations that want the flexibility of a self-hosted assistant along with stronger governance controls.
