You already pay for Claude or OpenAI. Connect once, and Hermes and OpenClaw run on your subscription, not on a token meter that spikes at 2 AM. This is not a VPS, it is a managed agent runtime. Per-tenant isolated machine. Hard-capped OpenRouter sub-key. Flat monthly price for the bundle.
These are connection options, not endorsements. Model access depends on the provider and your account. A consumer subscription may have different limits from API access.
What ships with every plan
01
Two full agents, one bill
Hermes from Nous Research and OpenClaw. Both agents, one dashboard, one $10 monthly subscription. The included active hours are shared across your agents.
02
Bring your subscription
Connect an available provider account, or use the included pooled inference credit. Your provider decides which models and allowances your account can use, and may charge separately.
03
OAuth that survives
Provider sign-ins are saved with your agent state across sleep and restart. You may need to reconnect when a provider session expires or you revoke access.
04
Sleeps when idle, wakes on demand
Idle machines sleep automatically. Sleeping time does not use your active-hour allowance. Background work counts while the machine is awake; wake timing varies.
Pricing
Flat monthly. Clear hours. Capped pooled inference.

The practical details
Before you commit.
01How does billing work?
Subscription is flat: $29 for Hermes or OpenClaw, $49 for both. If you connect your own provider account (BYOK), your token usage stays with that provider. If you use our key, spend is hard-capped by plan.
02What do active hours mean?
Active hours are running time per billing cycle: 40 on Hermes or OpenClaw, 80 shared on Both. Sleeping or stopped time does not count. Background work counts while the machine is awake, even if you close the tab.
03What happens when I hit a limit?
At the hour limit, new launches and workspace access are blocked until renewal. Pooled inference also stops at your plan's included credit cap. Your own provider has separate costs and limits; connecting one does not reset used hours. There are no automatic overage charges for these included allowances.
04Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Email privacy@clawd.run to cancel, as described in our terms. Access continues until the end of the paid period. Partial periods are not refunded. Export important files first, since cancellation can delete hosted workspaces.
05What happens to my data, and how is it protected?
Your workspace keeps files across sleep and restart, and offers an archive download. Workspace access requires authentication and an active plan. Stripe handles payment details. Model requests go to your selected provider, whose data policies also apply. Read our privacy and security pages before connecting sensitive accounts.
06Which models can I use?
Hermes and OpenClaw are agents, not models. Available provider connections include Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, and Gemini, plus supported OpenRouter models. Model access, rate limits, and any provider charges depend on your connected account. The subscription does not include every provider's paid plan.
07Is there a free trial?
No. Agent checkout starts a paid monthly subscription. Computer access has a separate waitlist on our homepage, with no charge to join. Joining that list does not start a subscription or unlock paid agents.
Two planes. Each picked for the job it's actually good at.
01
Edge
Browser
Your laptop.
Start your provider connection in the browser. The provider controls the permissions and model access you grant.
02
Dashboard
Tenant Machine
<product>-<uid>.clawd.run
Your agent runs on its own machine and sleeps when idle. Saved state persists across restarts. Export important files before cancellation.
03
Spend
OpenRouter sub-key
Hard cap: mapped to your active plan.
Pooled inference uses a separate OpenRouter key for each user, with a spending limit set by the active plan. Your own provider account has separate charges and limits.
