MyClaw runs a private OpenClaw or Hermes Agent instance on a managed cloud server, handling setup, updates and daily backups. It suits people who want an AI agent working on schedules and chat channels without keeping their own machine online.

MyClaw is a managed cloud service that keeps an AI agent such as OpenClaw or Hermes Agent running on a dedicated server, so the agent stays online when your own computer is off. The company describes MyClaw as the managed platform for deploying, running, and scaling AI agents, with one-click setup and no DevOps work on the customer side.
The product began as OpenClaw hosting. MyClaw calls itself managed cloud hosting for OpenClaw, the open-source AI assistant, and says it takes care of the servers, updates and maintenance so customers do not have to touch a terminal.
MyClaw is not the OpenClaw project. In its own words: "MyClaw is an independent service. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to the OpenClaw project or its maintainers." In practice it is a separate, paid hosting layer that runs open-source agent software on a customer's behalf. The site footer carries a copyright notice for Cubo World Inc.
Scope matters when reading the marketing. The plan cards state that each plan is available for OpenClaw and Hermes Agent. The homepage agent switcher also shows Claude Code and Codex, but the plan cards name only OpenClaw and Hermes Agent.
MyClaw's managed AI agent hosting pairs a cloud machine with agent software that arrives installed and configured.
MyClaw says OpenClaw and Hermes Agent go beyond chat: they browse, write code, generate files, draft pages, and return results you can use. Scheduling is central to the pitch. Daily reports, price monitoring, inbox triage and page watching are the named examples, with the hosted agent running on schedule and asking only when review is needed.
For Hermes Agent hosting, MyClaw describes Hermes as an agent that researches, writes code, runs tools, and turns successful work into reusable skills. The company says every solved task updates the agent's memory and skills, which is a vendor description of how Hermes improves rather than a measured result.
A single MyClaw Slack app serves a whole workspace. You connect a Slack workspace once, then choose which OpenClaw or Hermes instance, or sub-agent, can work in each channel. A task starts when someone mentions @MyClaw, and follow-up messages in the same thread continue the selected agent's task without another mention.
New OpenClaw instances can start from an existing backup instead of a blank setup. You can pick a backup already stored in your MyClaw account or upload a local OpenClaw backup in .tar.gz or .zip format, up to 2 GB. The restore option is limited to OpenClaw instances, so a new Hermes instance cannot be created from a backup this way.
For a private Slack channel, invite @MyClaw to the channel before enabling it in MyClaw.
MyClaw publishes guides for recurring agent jobs:
Customer quotes on the OpenClaw page show the intended pattern. A UK sales lead says leads now get checked five times a day, with Monday's numbers sent to WhatsApp before standup. A US startup founder says the agent returned research, positioning and a 12-slide deck from an industry name and three competitors. These are testimonials selected by MyClaw, not independent case studies.
MyClaw's comparison page names four groups:
It fits less well in a few situations. MyClaw's own Alibaba Cloud page says self-hosting is the better route when a team truly needs cloud-account ownership, provider-specific architecture, or a policy that keeps deployment inside its own account. The terms require users to be at least 18 years old, or the legal age in their jurisdiction. Users located in U.S.-embargoed countries, or listed on U.S. restricted-party lists, may not use the service.
The service also assumes customers will supervise their own automation. The terms make the customer solely responsible for configuring and supervising any agents built on the service, and MyClaw disclaims liability for what those agents do.
MyClaw pricing is a flat subscription for the cloud machine, with AI model usage billed on top. The plan cards captured on October 4, 2026 showed the yearly view:
| Plan | Shown per month (yearly view) | Yearly charge | Struck-through price | vCPU / RAM / SSD | Monthly traffic | Extra AI credits shown |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lite | $16.6 | $199 | $29/mo | 2 / 4 GB / 40 GB | 3 TB | None listed |
| Pro | $33.3 | $399 | $59/mo | 4 / 8 GB / 80 GB | 5 TB | $100 |
| Max | $66.6 | $799 | $119/mo | 8 / 16 GB / 160 GB | 10 TB | $150 |
| Ultra | $133.3+ | $1,599 | $239/mo | 16 | 20 TB | $200 |
AI token usage isn't included in the subscription, so model calls cost extra beyond the plan price. Priority support is listed for Pro and above. Ultra adds high-performance guaranteed resources.
The monthly-billing price is not settled by the public pages. The struck-through figures above sit next to the yearly price, while MyClaw's comparison page says plans start "From $19/mo" and the refund policy's worked example charges the Lite plan $19 per used month. These pages disagree, and the monthly checkout price was not visible without signing in.
The legal terms are stricter: they state that fees are non-refundable unless required by law, and that subscriptions may renew automatically. The refund policy itself says the Terms of Service prevail if the two conflict. Approved refunds take 5–10 business days and are calculated in USD.
Because MyClaw hosts open-source software, the main alternatives are other ways of running the same agent:
One third-party review platform showed 10 reviews with a 2.0 score for MyClaw as captured on October 4, 2026, which is too small a sample for a quality verdict. Within those 10 reviews, two describe crashes or freezing sessions, and two say they only learned after subscribing that AI usage needs separately purchased credits.
MyClaw's marketing promises an isolated container, an encrypted connection and zero data sharing, adding: "We don't access your conversations. We don't train on your data. Ever." The legal documents are narrower in places:
No. MyClaw says it is an independent service with no affiliation, endorsement or official connection to the OpenClaw project or its maintainers. It hosts the open-source software for paying customers.
No. Token usage is billed separately from the subscription. The yearly cards for Pro, Max and Ultra show extra AI credits of $100, $150 and $200, while Lite lists none.
Yes, for OpenClaw. On your local machine, run the command openclaw backup create to produce an official backup file, then upload it while creating a new MyClaw instance. If the restore fails, the instance is still created as a fresh OpenClaw instance.
Not necessarily. A MyClaw backup may remain available even after its original instance has been deleted, and you can use it to create a new instance. The instance itself, with its memory and history, is erased when deleted.
