--- title: "Done-For-You AI Workforce on OpenClaw — Astra AI" description: "Hundreds of AI workers that run on hardware you own and reply right in your team's chats, each with its own logins. OpenClaw, installed and run by Astra AI." canonical: "https://www.m-i-n-d.ai/get-openclaw" updated: "2026-10-14" --- # The AI workforce with a brain that answers where you already chat. Hundreds of AI workers, live on day one — each with its own computer, logins, and permissions, sharing one memory that gets smarter weekly. $2,500/month, plus AI running costs. Astra AI installs and manages an OpenClaw AI workforce running in a client's business or life for $2,500 a month — An open-source, self-hosted AI assistant that runs on your own hardware and talks to 20+ messaging platforms — Discord, Slack, iMessage, Telegram, and more — with native apps on macOS, iOS, Android, Windows, and Linux. We handle setup, configuration, monitoring, and incident response; the client gets a working AI workforce without owning the operational burden of running it themselves. ## Six jobs it takes off your plate - **Answers where you already chat** — It replies in Slack, Discord, text messages, and more, so nobody has to open a new app. - **Runs on a computer of its own** — It lives on hardware you own, or on a dedicated machine we run for you. Either way it is never shared with anyone else. - **Picks the right brain for the job** — For hard thinking it uses a smarter helper, and for simple work it uses a cheaper one, so you never overpay. - **Grows new skills any time** — New abilities are just switched on, no waiting on a company to approve it or raise your bill. - **Works on your desk and your phone** — The same agent follows you from your computer to your phone, wherever you check in. - **Keeps your other tools in sync** — It kicks off scheduled jobs and passes messages between your other tools and agents, so nothing falls through the cracks. ## A day with it - **7:02am** — Your briefing is already sitting in your messages. - **Midday** — It answers a question in Slack, right where your team asked it. - **3:00pm** — It runs the afternoon job you put on its schedule. - **Evening** — The report is already sitting in your inbox. ## What's included ($2,500/month) - We set up your computer and secure it before OpenClaw runs on it. - We route each task to the right AI model, so you don't overpay for simple work. - We test new skills before adding them, so nothing risky runs in your business. - We connect OpenClaw to the chat apps your team already uses, like Slack or text. - We watch for problems around the clock and fix them fast. - You get a monthly call where we tune what OpenClaw handles for you. ## How it starts 1. **Discovery call** — We find out which chat apps and tasks matter most to your business. Then we decide together: your own computer, or one we set up for you. 2. **Setup** — We install OpenClaw, secure it, and connect it to the chat apps your team uses. 3. **Verification** — We run it next to your team for two weeks, watching closely and fixing what goes wrong. 4. **Ongoing management** — We monitor it daily, add new skills once we've checked them, and call you every month. ## FAQ **Could I just set OpenClaw up myself instead of hiring you?** You could — OpenClaw itself is free, open-source software with no license fee, and the install script is genuinely one line. What it doesn't do is choose your infrastructure, harden credentials and network access, curate which plugins/skills are safe to run, wire the messaging platforms you actually use, or notice when the setup quietly breaks at 2am. That's the part we run. If you're comfortable doing all of that yourself and keeping up with it, you don't need us. **What happens if I want to leave?** Everything runs on infrastructure in your name or one we hand over on request — your data, your config, your credentials. Cancel any time; we'll hand off a clean export and walk your team (or your next vendor) through it. No lock-in by design. **What's actually included for $2,500/month?** Installation and initial configuration, the specific setup work listed above for this product, ongoing monitoring, incident response when something breaks, and a monthly review where we tune what your agent workforce is doing. It is a managed service, not a one-time setup fee — see "What you get monthly" above for the full list. **Who owns the agent and its data?** You do. It runs on your own hardware or a VPS provisioned in your name, with your credentials. We operate it; we don't own it. **Do you actually use OpenClaw yourselves, or is this just a product you sell?** We run OpenClaw ourselves, in production, as the orchestration layer behind our own AI systems — scheduled jobs, multi-channel messaging, coordinating other agent sessions. The friction we describe above (things quietly breaking, mismatched plugin versions, failures when it hands off between models) is friction we've personally hit and fixed, not vendor marketing. **What if I already have technical staff who could set this up?** If your team already knows OpenClaw's failure modes and has time to own uptime, security, and plugin curation ongoing, you may not need us. Most SMB teams we talk to have neither the spare bandwidth nor the specific experience — that's the gap this retainer fills. ## Facts - Vendor: OpenClaw Foundation (Open source, MIT license) - Self-hostable: yes — Self-hosted on your own hardware or a VPS — your data and credentials never leave infrastructure you control. - Price: $2,500/month, cancel any time - Provider: Astra AI (https://www.m-i-n-d.ai)
