Managed Secure OpenClaw
Right now, hundreds of OpenClaw instances are sitting on the public internet with zero authentication. Admin panels wide open. API keys exposed in plaintext. And every single one of them started as “I'll lock it down later.”
Clawctl is managed, secure OpenClaw — hardened runtime, audit trails, human approvals, from the second you deploy. Starting at $49/mo.
You deploy OpenClaw on a Friday afternoon. Everything works. You're excited. The agent is browsing the web, writing code, running shell commands. You feel like the future.
Then Monday hits.
Your security team finds the admin port exposed on Shodan. Your Anthropic API key is in a config file with no encryption. There's no audit log, so nobody can tell if the agent already did something it shouldn't have. And you can't get the project approved because there's no approval workflow, no 2FA, no RBAC, no SIEM integration — nothing your compliance team will sign off on.
OpenClaw works great. Production is the problem.
So you have two choices. Spend weeks building security infrastructure that isn't your core competency. Or use managed, secure OpenClaw that's already built.
Let's do the math on “free” self-hosted OpenClaw.
You need authentication. That's a week if you're fast. Audit logging with search and replay? Another week, minimum. Encrypted secrets management so your API keys aren't sitting in environment variables? Two days if you already know how. Sandbox configuration, egress allowlists, human-in-the-loop approvals? Now you're building an infrastructure product, not shipping your actual product.
And the kicker: you still have to maintain all of it. Security patches. Version updates. Monitoring. The 3am page when something breaks. That's not a one-time cost. That's forever.
At $49/mo, Clawctl costs less than a single hour of your engineering time. Every month.
| DIY OpenClaw | Clawctl | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to production | 4-6 weeks | < 60 seconds |
| Authentication & 2FA | Build it | Built in |
| Audit trail & replay | Build it | Built in |
| Encrypted secrets | Build it | Built in |
| Human-in-the-loop approvals | Build it | Built in |
| Security patches | Your problem | We handle it |
| Compliance evidence | Manual | Auto-generated |
| Ongoing cost | Engineering hours, forever | $49-999/mo |
Clawctl isn't a different agent. It's the same OpenClaw you already know — running inside a managed, hardened runtime that your security team will actually approve. We don't replace OpenClaw. We complete it.
Here's what that means in practice:
No exposed ports. No localhost exploits. Sandboxed execution with egress allowlists. Your OpenClaw instance runs in isolation — not on the open internet.
High-risk actions require your sign-off. Approve from your phone at 3am, or whitelist patterns so they run automatically. You stay in control without babysitting.
Every prompt, every tool call, every output — logged, searchable, and replayable. When your compliance team asks "what did the agent do last Tuesday?" you have the answer in 10 seconds.
Your LLM API keys are encrypted at rest and injected at runtime. Not in a .env file. Not in plaintext. Not sitting in ~/.openclaw/credentials/ for anyone to read. Actually encrypted.
Security patches, OpenClaw version updates, monitoring, backups. We do it so you don't have to. You focus on what your agent does. We handle everything underneath.
Most AI infrastructure companies make money by marking up your API calls. You pay Anthropic $10 in tokens, they charge you $15. Then you can't predict your bill because it scales with usage. Fun.
We don't do that.
You bring your own API keys. You pay your LLM provider directly — no markup, no middleman. We charge a flat monthly fee for the runtime, security infrastructure, and managed operations. That's it.
$49/mo for Starter. $299/mo for Team. $999/mo for Business. You know the number before you sign up. It doesn't change based on how many tokens your agent burns.
And if you pay annually? 20% off. Because we like predictable revenue as much as you like predictable costs.
Every plan includes the full OpenClaw security stack. The difference is scale — more agents, more runs, longer audit retention, bigger local models.
Full power. Full accountability. One agent to start.
Your agents work at 3am. You approve what matters from bed.
Your security team signs off. No theater required.
Your cloud. Our ops team. Compliance paperwork included.
Cancel anytime — 30-day grace period to reactivate.
Downgrade? Excess agents are paused, not deleted.
Sure. And you can also change your own oil, do your own taxes, and build your own furniture.
The question isn't whether you can harden OpenClaw. It's whether you should.
Your time is worth something. If you're building an AI-powered product, every hour you spend writing auth middleware and audit log infrastructure around OpenClaw is an hour you're not spending on the thing that actually makes money.
And here's the thing about OpenClaw security: it's not a one-time project. It's a commitment. New CVEs drop every week. OpenClaw updates regularly. Your compliance requirements evolve. Someone has to keep up with all of it.
We already did the work. We manage secure OpenClaw so you don't have to.
(And the straight answers.)
Your agents pause until the next billing cycle. That's it. We never charge overage fees. You will never wake up to a surprise bill. The number on the pricing page is the number you pay.
Upgrade instantly, any time. Downgrade at the end of your billing cycle. When you downgrade, excess agents get paused — not deleted. Your work is safe.
No. Zero markup. You bring your own API keys and pay Anthropic, OpenAI, or whoever directly. We charge for the runtime and security infrastructure. That’s a fundamentally different business model than “we’ll add 50% to your token costs.”
No free trial. If managed OpenClaw doesn't work for you, contact us and we'll work with you. Cancel anytime.
Same features. Same limits. 20% cheaper. Pay for 12 months upfront and keep more of your money. That’s it.
Your agents stop running. You have 30 days to reactivate and pick up where you left off. After 30 days, your data is deleted. No lock-in, no exit fees, no guilt trip.
No. Clawctl runs the same OpenClaw you already know. Same tools, same skills, same config. We generate a hardened openclaw.json and wrap your instance in a managed, secure runtime. Your OpenClaw workflow doesn’t change.
60 seconds from now, you could have managed, secure OpenClaw with audit trails, approvals, and encrypted secrets — ready for production.
Or you could spend the next 6 weeks doing it yourself. Your call.
Cancel anytime. Starts at $49/mo.
