Pricing & deployment paths

Choose the right OpenClaw rollout.

Start in cloud for speed. Move into ship-in or on-site only when the environment needs tighter control. Keep model usage separate so the base plan stays clean.

Launch fast Three cloud tiers for getting a live operator into production quickly.
Control when needed Ship-in and on-site stay available for hardware-heavy or private environments.
Usage scales separately Credits keep model consumption flexible instead of bloating the base plan.

Cloud for speed. Ship-in or on-site when the environment says otherwise.

Keep implementation, hosting, and model usage separate so you can scale the right line item instead of paying for bundles you do not need.

Managed cloud

Fastest path to a live operator.

For most teams, this is the right starting point. Pick the amount of headroom you need now, then move up only when the workload actually earns it.

Starter launch

Starter

$29 /mo
Scale up whenever workload increases

Best for a first live assistant, early workflow volume, and proving a useful operator without overcommitting.

Start Starter
  • 2 vCPU / 2 GB RAM / 40 GB SSD
  • 1 OpenClaw deployment
  • Browser automation + integrations
  • Telegram-first onboarding
Higher sustained load

Business

$89 /mo
Scale up whenever workload increases

Built for more persistent autonomous work, higher concurrency, and teams that need more headroom before moving into custom environments.

Start Business
  • 4 vCPU / 8 GB RAM / 160 GB SSD
  • 1 OpenClaw deployment
  • Dedicated support path
  • Better fit for heavier workflow spikes
Implementation paths

Install for controlled environments.

Some deployments need hardware handling, tighter training, or a real on-site install. These options exist for those cases, not as default upsells.

Support Hours

Hourly
$99 total

Remote troubleshooting, implementation help, review sessions, and system fixes. The more hours you commit, the lower the effective hourly rate.

OpenClaw Credits

Keep model usage flexible.

Credits are the usage layer. They let a deployment access model capacity without forcing provider setup on day one.

FAQ

Questions before launch.

These are the questions that usually come up before a team chooses a deployment path.

What is included in the cloud plans?

The cloud plans cover the hosted OpenClaw deployment footprint and the onboarding path for getting the system live. Credits and custom implementation work are handled separately so they scale with usage instead of being buried inside the base plan.

Do I need my own model API keys?

Not necessarily. You can use OpenClaw Credits and avoid managing provider accounts yourself, or bring your own keys later if your control requirements change.

When should I choose ship-in or on-site instead of cloud?

Choose ship-in or on-site when the environment, security requirements, or rollout process requires more control than a managed cloud deployment gives you. For most buyers, cloud is still the fastest path to value.

What do OpenClaw Credits actually pay for?

Credits cover AI model usage inside the platform. That keeps access flexible across different providers and makes it easier to top up compute without changing the underlying deployment plan.

Next step

Pick the path first.

Start with the environment that fits the work. Add credits, services, or implementation help only when the rollout needs it.
