Question 1

What is OpenClaw?

Accepted Answer

OpenClaw is an open-source AI executive assistant that connects to your tools (email, calendar, Slack, etc.) and automates workflows. It's built for teams who want AI that actually does work, not just answers questions.

Question 2

Do I need technical knowledge?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. That's the whole point of SetupOpenClaw — we handle every technical detail. You just tell us what you want your AI assistant to do.

Question 3

Can you set this up remotely?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our Hosted Setup and Mac Mini Remote tiers are fully remote. We can deploy for teams anywhere in the UK (and worldwide). Only the Mac Mini In-Person tier requires Leeds & West Yorkshire proximity.

Question 4

Is this related to the OpenAI acquisition?

Accepted Answer

No. OpenClaw is an independent open-source project. It uses various AI models and is not owned by or affiliated with OpenAI.

Question 5

Can I set up OpenClaw myself?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely — it's open source. But most teams find that security hardening, integration configuration, and ongoing maintenance take significantly more time than expected. We do it in hours with enterprise-grade security.

Question 6

What if something goes wrong?

Accepted Answer

During the 14-day hypercare period, we actively monitor and fix any issues. After that, we offer support packages. Plus, every installation includes audit trails and monitoring.

Question 7

What infrastructure do I need?

Accepted Answer

For Hosted Setup: nothing — we deploy to a cloud VPS (~£5-10/mo). For Mac Mini tiers: a Mac Mini (~£500). We handle all software configuration.

Question 8

Can I have multiple agents?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each additional agent is £350. Teams often run separate agents for different departments or workflows.

Question 9

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We use Docker sandboxing, Composio middleware, OAuth token management, audit trails, and read-only defaults. Your data stays on your infrastructure — we never store it.

Question 10

What about ongoing maintenance?

Accepted Answer

OpenClaw requires minimal maintenance after setup. We provide documentation for common tasks. For hands-off operation, ask about our maintenance packages.
