OpenClaw lets you run a personal AI assistant that works across WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, and more. The project is open source, actively maintained, and genuinely impressive.
The Deployment Problem
The catch? Getting OpenClaw running on real infrastructure requires provisioning a server, installing dependencies, configuring reverse proxies, managing TLS certificates, and setting up webhooks for each messaging platform. Most developers either stalled during setup or spent entire weekends debugging networking issues.
Our Approach
We built OpenClawBotHosting as a BYOS-first platform. You bring a server from any provider — [DigitalOcean](/byos/digitalocean), [Vultr](/byos/vultr), [Hetzner](/byos/hetzner), [AWS](/byos/aws), [Akamai](/byos/akamai), or [any SSH-accessible machine](/byos/custom-server) — and we handle the deployment pipeline.
What the Platform Does
What You Bring
You supply your own AI provider key (Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, or a local model via Ollama) and your own server. We supply the management layer.
