RunClaw helps technical solo builders and small teams deploy and operate self-hosted AI agents on infrastructure they control, without doing ops manually.
Free beta is open to a small cohort. Pick the setup path that fits your infrastructure, then launch.
Product proof
RunClaw is not just a provisioning button. The beta already exposes the operator surfaces you use to launch, verify, and recover your self-hosted agents.
Account-level view
Track every server, agent type, region, and provisioning state from one place before you drop into any instance.
Instance access
Validate DNS, gateway reachability, and operator links for the agent you just launched without guessing what the public entrypoint looks like.
Troubleshooting surface
Open the instance shell, inspect logs, and debug real deployment output instead of relying on optimistic status labels alone.
Start with the infrastructure you control, then let RunClaw handle the repetitive ops work.
Start with Hetzner for the easiest cloud path, choose Vultr when that provider fits better, or use SSH for infrastructure you already run.
Choose OpenClaw, Agent Zero, or Goose, then add the credentials that match your path. Cloud API tokens stay encrypted in your browser, and SSH uses the Ubuntu server you already control.
RunClaw provisions the cloud server or connects your existing Ubuntu machine, gives your agent a URL, and keeps monitoring, updates, and status in one control plane.
Compare Setup Paths
Start with the easiest new-server path, choose a provider alternative, or connect the Ubuntu box you already manage. Every option keeps the agent on infrastructure you control.
Easiest path
Provision a fresh VPS on your Hetzner account with the fastest self-serve setup flow.
Provider alternative
Provision a new VPS on Vultr when its regions or provider fit is better for your deployment.
Advanced path
Connect an Ubuntu server you already manage when you want RunClaw on existing infrastructure.
RunClaw is free during beta. You either pay your provider directly or reuse the Ubuntu server you already own.
Deploy once. Manage everything from your browser.
Real-time fleet overview. CPU, memory, disk at a glance. Status indicators for every agent.
Full management dashboard for OpenClaw instances. Monitor conversations, manage contacts, configure channels.
Real-time CPU, memory, disk monitoring. Live log streaming and full-text search across containers.
Zero-downtime agent updates. Choose when to update or let it happen automatically on schedule.
Your agent on your own domain. Auto-TLS via Let's Encrypt. Simple CNAME verification.
Intrusion detection and SSH brute-force alerts. Security event timeline with account lockout.
SSH into your VPS from the dashboard. Full terminal in your browser. No local setup.
Point-in-time snapshots. Restore anytime. Your data, always recoverable.
Your server, your data, your API keys. RunClaw is the control plane -- you keep the infrastructure.
A dedicated VPS just for you -- on Hetzner, Vultr, or your own existing server. Not shared, not multi-tenant. Your server runs your agents and nothing else.
Your cloud provider API token is encrypted in your browser and stays there. RunClaw stores only a one-way hash for verification -- we cannot reconstruct your token from it.
Everything lives on your VPS. Cancel anytime and take it all with you. No lock-in, no data hostage.

Cloud Provider
Hetzner / Vultr
Your cloud provider API token is encrypted using PBKDF2 key derivation (600,000 iterations) combined with AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption. All cryptographic operations use the browser's native WebCrypto API. No JavaScript crypto libraries. Your provider token is never sent to RunClaw's servers.
When you create, resize, or delete a server, your browser calls the cloud provider API directly (Hetzner) or through a stateless proxy (Vultr, due to CORS restrictions). The decrypted token exists only in browser memory during the API call. RunClaw's server stores only one-way SHA-256 hashes of tokens for verification.
During initial provisioning, some secrets -- such as an access gate token and optional LLM API keys -- are temporarily sent to RunClaw so they can be injected into your server's cloud-init script. LLM keys are encrypted at rest and deleted from our database after provisioning completes. These are setup-time secrets, not long-lived stored credentials.
After provisioning, RunClaw's dashboard provides optional management features -- logs, terminal, workspace file access, and configuration updates -- that relay content through the control plane when you use them. These features are customer-initiated: RunClaw does not continuously inspect your server. When you are not using these features, no content flows through RunClaw beyond system-level metrics (CPU, memory, disk).
Verify it yourself: open DevTools, go to the Network tab, and watch the requests when you manage a server. You'll see your browser calling api.hetzner.cloud directly (or /api/vultr-proxy for Vultr). Check the Content-Security-Policy response header to confirm the enforcement.
Post-beta preview
RunClaw is free during beta. You either pay your provider directly or reuse the Ubuntu server you already own. The tiers below are a preview of where RunClaw is heading after the beta ends.
Cloud infrastructure stays on your bill with Hetzner or Vultr, or you can keep using an Ubuntu server you already control.
No RunClaw platform fee during beta. Infrastructure and AI-provider costs stay yours.
RunClaw is free during beta. No credit card, no subscription. You pay only your cloud provider or AI-model vendor directly.
Deploy one instance of each supported type -- OpenClaw, Agent Zero, and Goose -- each on its own dedicated server you control.
Your infrastructure stays under your control when beta ends. Beta users who provision a cloud server also earn 3 months of Pro free.
No RunClaw platform fee during beta. Choose your setup path, then let RunClaw handle the launch and day-two control plane.
No credit card required during beta
