OpenClaw is the most popular open source AI agent on the planet. Running it yourself? That's the hard part. KiloClaw is a fully managed, hosted version of OpenClaw. We handle the infrastructure, security, updates, and monitoring so you can focus on what your agent actually does - not keeping it alive.
If you've played around with @OpenClaw, you know the drill: 30-60 minutes of SSH, environment config, dependency juggling, unexpected crashes, and manual updates... It's fun at first, then we move on.
Looks like a great solution minus the headache. How will this work for local tasks or actions like editing files, folders, browser navigation etc?
Excellent one-click install of OpenClaw. Everything works beautifully. I was able to log in and chat with the OpenClaw bot.
The challenge here is that there is no terminal access, so we don't have any control over the instance. If you guys know, let me know. I tried putting the Telegram bot token, and it's asking to restart; then I restarted multiple times. It never worked. Finally, the bot recognizes in the chat window that Telegram is activated, but still, when I messaged from Telegram, the pairing is not happening and the pairing request keeps spinning. Nothing is happening there.
Can you guys troubleshoot this pairing with Telegram? I'm sure Discord and Slack also have similar problems. Better to give us the terminal access so we can troubleshoot this.
@realolearycrew I understand that we pay for metered AI compute, but are there also hosting costs? I could not find information about that on the site.
Great work guys! Self hosted setup is kind of tricky. I can see this helping a lot of people out!
I've been self-hosting OpenClaw on a mac mini for months now — the setup tax is real lol. spent way more time fighting node versions and proxy configs than actually building useful stuff. so yeah the value prop here is pretty obvius: trade infra headaches for shipping time. one q tho — any plans to support bring-your-own-API-keys so users keep full control of their model spend? thats been one of the best parts of self-hosting for me tbh.
Been using this since early access, pretty flaky experience with frequent downtimes 🤣 but generally positive experience so far as this is my first time using OpenClaw. Learnt a lot of new stuff and really impressed with the whole ecosystem.
Congrats on the launch!
i was going to setup openclaw, then i saw this! straight to the kiloclaw signed up & used openclaw without a mac mini saved an hour of manual setup😄
The gap between "this open source tool is incredible" and "I actually run it in production" is where most developer tools lose people. SSH, environment config, dependency juggling ... that's not the work anyone signed up for.
I've been through this exact cycle building my own infrastructure. You spend a weekend getting something deployed, it works great, then three weeks later a dependency update breaks it silently and you're back to debugging infra instead of building product. Curious about the 500+ AI models integration. How are you handling model-specific quirks in tool calling and context window management across that many providers? That's always been one of the trickiest parts in my experience.
SO I could use this as the brain on my raspberry pi voice assistant at home????? Im not a developer, is it easy? haha. ( dont trust chatgpt opinion on this)
I'm finding my KiloClaw super helpful as a research assistant -- some glitches in the first release but now running smoothly and really amazing to have the always-on agent working for me!
Kudos to the team! Nothing but great things i've seen from this team — especially @realolearycrew, one of the GOATs :)
a killer launch from the @Kilo Code team, congrats! I have been trying other solutions in the past few weeks and this is definitely the most elegant and gives you loads of control.
I think this is a great step in increasing adoption of AI assitants like OpenClaw. As a developer the setup already takes me some time, so I can only imagine what its like for someone non-technical.
The move from self-hosted to managed infra follows the same arc as databases a decade ago — same privacy debate, same setup/maintenance tax, same eventual outcome. Most teams traded local control for managed convenience once the offering was mature enough. Curious if dedicated instances for teams with stricter data requirements are on the roadmap?
