Getting Started

Everything you need to go from sign-up to a running AI agent in under 90 seconds.

Quick Start

You can have a running AI agent in three steps. No server knowledge required.

Step 1 — Choose a plan

Head to the Pricing page and select Basic ($5.99/mo) or Premium ($29.99/mo). You'll be taken to a Stripe checkout — no ClawdPro account needed, just your email and card.

Step 2 — Wait ~90 seconds

After your payment completes, our system automatically:

  • Allocates a dedicated VM with your chosen resources
  • Installs and configures OpenClaw AI on your VM
  • Creates a Cloudflare tunnel and DNS record for your subdomain
  • Sends your subdomain to the email address you used at checkout
Your subdomain format: You'll receive a human-readable domain like john-doe.clawdpro.ai. Bookmark it — that's your agent's permanent address for as long as you're subscribed.

Step 3 — Access your agent

Open your-name.clawdpro.ai in any browser. You'll see the OpenClaw interface — no login, no app install, no VPN. Your agent is ready to use immediately.

Accessing Your Agent

Your agent runs 24/7 on its dedicated VM. You can access it from any device with a modern browser.

Direct URL access

Simply navigate to your subdomain directly:

https://your-name.clawdpro.ai

Via the portal on this site

Go to clawdpro.ai/#portal, enter your domain name (just the part before .clawdpro.ai), and click Go to My Portal. Your browser will redirect directly to your agent.

What if my agent is unreachable?

  • Wait 2–3 minutes after signup — provisioning can occasionally take slightly longer
  • Try a hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R / Cmd+Shift+R)
  • Check that you're using the exact subdomain from your confirmation email
  • If still unreachable after 5 minutes, email [email protected]

Using the Portal

The portal login on the ClawdPro homepage lets you quickly jump to your agent without memorizing the full URL.

  • Go to clawdpro.ai/#portal
  • Type the first part of your subdomain (e.g., john-doe for john-doe.clawdpro.ai)
  • The full URL is previewed below the input as you type
  • Press Enter or click Go to My Portal
Tip: Bookmark your subdomain directly in your browser for even faster access — you won't need the portal after that.

Common Agent Commands

OpenClaw AI understands natural language. Here are examples of what you can ask it to do. Just type in the chat interface at your subdomain.

File operations

Show me all files in the /home directory
Create a new file called notes.txt with the content "Hello World"
Read the contents of config.json
Delete all .log files in /var/log

Code and execution

Run the script at /home/user/app.py
Install the requests Python package
Check what processes are currently running
Show me the last 50 lines of the error log

Web browsing

Go to https://example.com and tell me what it says
Search the web for "best Python web frameworks in 2026"
Download the file at [URL] and save it to /home/downloads/

Content and writing

Write a professional email about [topic] and save it to email.txt
Summarize the document at /home/report.pdf
Create a weekly schedule for me in markdown format

File Operations

Your VM comes with a dedicated filesystem. Your agent can read, write, edit, and organize files freely within your VM's storage.

  • Basic: 5 GB disk — suitable for scripts, configs, documents, and light data
  • Premium: 20 GB disk — suitable for larger datasets, media files, and code repositories

Files are persisted on your VM's disk for as long as you're subscribed. We don't access or read your files.

Web Control

OpenClaw AI can browse the web on your behalf — navigating to URLs, reading page content, filling forms, and scraping data.

  • Ask it to visit a page and summarize the content
  • Monitor a page for changes and notify you
  • Download files from the web to your VM's storage
  • Interact with web-based tools and apps

Integrations (Premium)

Premium subscribers can connect messaging apps and external services to their agent.

Messaging

Connect your agent to Telegram, Slack, or Discord. Once connected, you can chat with your agent directly inside those apps — no need to open a browser.

API Integration

Your agent can call external APIs, connect to databases, and integrate with tools in your stack. Ask it to:

Call the GitHub API and show me my open pull requests
Query my PostgreSQL database at [connection string] for all users
Post a message to my Slack #general channel

Upgrading from Basic to Premium

To upgrade, email [email protected] with your subdomain. We'll:

  • Migrate your VM to Premium hardware (2 vCores, 2 GB RAM, 20 GB disk)
  • Keep your subdomain and all existing files intact
  • Unlock all skills and messaging integrations
  • Pro-rate the difference for the current billing period

Cancelling Your Subscription

To cancel, email [email protected] or use the Stripe billing portal (link is in your receipt email).

  • Your agent stays live until the end of the current billing period
  • No further charges after cancellation
  • Your VM and subdomain are decommissioned at period end
Before cancelling: Make sure to export or download any files you want to keep from your VM's filesystem. Once decommissioned, data cannot be recovered.

FAQ

Can I run my own software on the VM?

Your agent can install packages and run software via execute commands. If you need specific software pre-installed at provisioning, contact support and we'll accommodate where possible.

Is my agent's data private?

Yes. Each customer's VM is fully isolated — no shared processes or filesystems between tenants. We don't access your agent's data or files. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

What happens if I exceed my disk limit?

Your agent will warn you when approaching the limit. You can delete files to free space, or upgrade to Premium for 20 GB of storage.

Does my agent run when I'm not connected?

Yes. Your VM runs 24/7 regardless of whether you're connected. If you've asked your agent to do something long-running, it will complete in the background and the results will be there when you return.

I lost my subdomain — how do I find it?

Check your original Stripe receipt email — it includes your subdomain. If you can't find it, email [email protected] with the email address you used at checkout.
