Managed vs Self-Hosted
A clear side-by-side so you can pick the right path for your team.
| Category | Managed (ClawPilot) | Self-Hosted |
|---|---|---|
| Runtime support | Openclaw and Hermes Agent from one hosting layer. | Separate install, maintenance, and recovery paths per runtime. |
| Agent scale | Create multiple agents and workflows without repeating server setup. | Each new runtime can add setup, secrets, monitoring, and update work. |
| Device exposure | Agents run away from your personal laptop and local files. | Local installs can share a boundary with personal apps and credentials. |
| Best fit | Teams and builders who want fast, reliable hosted agents. | Infrastructure-heavy teams that need full host ownership. |

Hermes Agent is a strong fit for persistent memory, tool use, skills, and longer-running autonomous work.
ClawPilot keeps the runtime decision flexible so you do not have to choose a single agent framework forever.
FAQ
Common questions about this deployment model.
Can ClawPilot host both Openclaw and Hermes Agent?
Yes. ClawPilot supports hosted Openclaw and Hermes Agent runtimes, so you can choose the agent framework that fits the job.
Can I deploy more than one agent?
Yes. You can create multiple agents and workflows inside supported runtimes instead of rebuilding hosting for every experiment.
Why not run agents on my main laptop?
Always-on agents can touch files, tools, browser sessions, and credentials. A separate cloud runtime gives them a cleaner boundary.
Is this still useful if I already know Docker?
Yes. Managed hosting is about reducing ongoing maintenance, not only avoiding the first install.
