Your Personal AI,
Running on Your Hardware.
OpenClaw connects to your life—WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, and iMessage. It's not just a chatbot; it's an agent that lives in your terminal and talks to your services.
By connecting it to Routstr, you bypass the need for OpenAI or Anthropic subscriptions. Just top up with sats and pay only for what you use.

Skills That Come With the Setup
Routstr Balance Manager
Your agent can check your Routstr balance, request top-ups, and monitor your spending on LLM requests automatically.
Cashu Wallet
Built-in Cashu e-cash wallet for private, instant payments. Send and receive sats without on-chain transactions.
LNVPS Manager
Your agent can manage its own VPS through LNVPS—restart services, check status, and handle deployments via Bitcoin payments.
Install & Config
The setup script installs Node.js, OpenClaw, and configures the `routstr` provider in `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` automatically.
LLM Top Up
Ask your LLM to help you topup, and it'll send you a lightning invoice.
Connect
Use `openclaw onboard` to link your preferred chat apps like WhatsApp or Telegram.
