Always-on personal assistantOpenClaw

Install OpenClaw
on managed AI hosting.

Run an always-available assistant connected to the messaging channels and tools your team already uses. Darwa adds the managed runtime, HTTPS, persistent storage, and lifecycle tracking around it.

Why OpenClaw

An assistant that lives in your messaging apps

OpenClaw is built for the case where nobody wants another browser tab. It connects to the channels a team keeps open all day and stays available on a schedule rather than only when someone opens a window.

Deployment
Managed Compose stack
Included configuration

OpenClaw features prepared for a managed deployment.

The visible capabilities come from the verified catalog entry; secrets and signed installer assets remain private to the backend.

01

Pinned official revision

The deployment tracks a reviewed upstream release rather than a moving latest tag.

02

Generated gateway token

Inbound messaging traffic must present a token unique to your deployment.

03

Tracked Compose services

Every container in the stack is recorded in the backend, not just the entrypoint.

04

HTTPS routing

A working address with a valid certificate from the first health check, no manual TLS setup.

05

Messaging gateways

Persistent connections to chat channels so the agent is reachable where your team already talks.

06

Persistent assistant state

Assistant context is written to durable storage and survives restarts.

Gateway runtime

How OpenClaw stays reachable.

Messaging gateways hold persistent connections, so an inbound message reaches the assistant without you exposing anything else.

What teams build

Useful starting points for OpenClaw.

Team assistance

Make an approved assistant reachable from the communication tools a team keeps open.

Daily summaries

Collect activity on a schedule and deliver a concise operational digest.

Persistent memory

Retain approved context and configuration beyond one browser or local development session.

Managed runtime

What Darwa runs so you do not have to.

The hosting layer is the same for every agent, which is what makes a one-click install honest.

Verified manifest

Deployments run from a reviewed catalog entry rather than an arbitrary image you have to trust.

Isolated runtime

Each agent gets its own workload boundary, not a shared container with an unrelated website.

Persistent storage

Plan storage is allocated up front so application state survives restarts and releases.

Managed HTTPS

A working address with a certificate from the first health check, with custom domains where supported.

Health tracking

Runtime and resource signals come from the actual workload, so a failure is visible rather than silent.

Subscription lifecycle

Grace, suspension, retention, and restoration follow the plan instead of an untracked server.

Pricing

Plans that can run OpenClaw.

One AI Agent subscription covers the managed runtime, storage, and endpoint. Model provider usage is billed by that provider.

Live pricing is temporarily unavailable. OpenClaw needs at least 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, and 10 GB of storage.

FAQ

OpenClaw questions.

Darwa hosts the open-source application independently; upstream licensing and product behavior remain with its project.

Which messaging channels can it connect to?+

OpenClaw supports the gateways included in its upstream project, commonly covering major chat platforms and email. Each gateway needs its own credentials, which you provide and can revoke.

Does it keep running when nobody messages it?+

Yes. The runtime stays on for scheduled work and inbound events, which is the main reason to host it rather than run it on a laptop.

Is the assistant reachable publicly?+

Inbound traffic is authenticated with a generated gateway token, so only your configured channels can reach it, not the open internet.

What does it remember between conversations?+

Assistant state is written to persistent storage and survives restarts. What is retained depends on the memory and tool configuration you enable.

What does Darwa manage for OpenClaw?+

Darwa manages the verified deployment manifest, isolated runtime, persistent storage allocation, HTTPS endpoint, health tracking, usage visibility, and paid-plan lifecycle. You manage the agent's models, credentials, tools, content, and decisions.

How do I install OpenClaw?+

Choose Install OpenClaw, sign in, and select an AI Agent plan if the workspace does not already have one. The launch flow keeps OpenClaw selected while you choose its address and start the managed deployment.

What resources does OpenClaw require?+

The current catalog minimum is 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, and 10 GB of storage. Real requirements depend on concurrency, models, document volume, integrations, and enabled features.

Does OpenClaw data survive restarts?+

Darwa allocates persistent storage according to the selected plan. Important application data should still follow the backup and recovery practices required by your business.

Can OpenClaw use a custom domain?+

The application can start with a managed Darwa address. A domain you own can be selected when custom-domain support is available for the launch flow and its DNS is verified.

Is Darwa affiliated with OpenClaw?+

No affiliation is implied. OpenClaw is a third-party open-source project. Darwa provides independent managed hosting and links to the upstream repository for project information and licensing.
