Common questions
Everything you need to know before getting started.
What is OpenClaw?
OpenClaw is an open-source AI assistant platform that runs on your own infrastructure. It connects to LLMs like GPT-5 or Claude and can integrate with Telegram, browse the web, and maintain long-term memory.
Why Hetzner specifically?
Hetzner offers excellent value for EU-based VPS hosting with strong privacy protections. You pay them directly (~£10/month), keeping full ownership and control of your server.
Is my data private?
Completely. Your bot is locked to your Telegram account only. All memory and conversations stay on your server. We never retain access after setup is complete.
What happens after setup?
You get a fully working AI assistant plus documentation. For 7 days, you can email us with any setup questions. After that, you're self-sufficient — or you can book consultancy hours.
Can I add more features later?
Yes. The consultancy option covers custom integrations — Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, custom workflows, and more. Book hours as you need them.
What if something breaks?
The setup includes security hardening and automatic updates for stability. If you need help beyond the 7-day support window, consultancy hours are available.

Important Notes
- This service requires you to share temporary root access and your Telegram bot token. Our access is removed after setup is complete.
- Security hardening significantly reduces risk but cannot guarantee absolute protection. You are responsible for keeping the server updated and your API keys secure.
- Service provided as-is. ClawSetup is not liable for data loss, security breaches, or downtime.
