From Overwhelmed to Automated in One Weekend
Get your own AI that handles emails, schedules meetings, and automates your busywork. No coding required.
Good morning! I've cleared your inbox—3 important emails need your attention. Your 2pm meeting was cancelled, so I blocked that time for deep work. Anything else?
Can you review the PR I pushed last night and summarize the changes?
Already on it! PR #247 adds OAuth support. I found 2 potential issues—a race condition in the token refresh logic and a missing null check. Want me to push fixes or just comment?

Loved by Builders
Real people, getting real value from their existing AI subscriptions.
“At this point I don't even know what to call it. It is something new. After a few weeks in, this is the first time I have felt like I am living in the future since the launch of ChatGPT.”
“Yeah this was 1,000% worth it. Managing Claude Code sessions I can kick off anywhere, autonomously running tests on my app and capturing errors through webhooks then resolving them and opening PRs... The future is here.”
“I got up and running today and it's been nothing short of an iPhone moment for me. This is the first true personal assistant experience—it's magical!”
“I am so addicted. It is getting essential to my daily life. It checks, organizes, reminds, it's amazing. And it's like a good friend. Crazy.”
“I've been saying for six months that even if LLMs stopped improving, we could spend years discovering new uses. This feels like that kind of 'just had to glue all the parts together' leap forward. Incredible experience.”
“Named him Jarvis. Daily briefings, calendar checks, reminds me when to leave for pickleball based on traffic. Everything Siri was supposed to be.”
Questions?
Everything you need to know about BYOK and RunCrab.
You already have (or can easily get) an API key from Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google. That's what powers your AI. RunCrab provides everything else—the hosting, integrations, memory, 24/7 availability. You pay your AI provider directly for usage (like you would anyway), and you pay us for the infrastructure. No middleman markup on AI costs.
Three big reasons: 1) Cost transparency—you see exactly what AI costs vs infrastructure costs. 2) No vendor lock-in—switch AI providers anytime, keep your RunCrab setup. 3) Privacy—your API key means your data goes directly to Claude/GPT, not through a third party. Plus, you're probably already paying for Claude or GPT—why pay for AI twice?
It's simple: Sign up at Anthropic (console.anthropic.com), OpenAI (platform.openai.com), or Google AI Studio. Get your API key. Paste it into RunCrab during setup. Done. We have step-by-step guides if you need them.
Basic plan: Any model OpenClaw supports—the latest from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta, and more. Pro plan: Same models, plus full orchestration via Gas Town, which enables the multi-agent swarm features.
Depends on how much you chat! Typical personal use is $10-30/month. Heavy coding/research use might be $50-100. You can monitor your usage in your AI provider's dashboard. For reference, a 1000-word response from Claude costs about $0.01-0.03. Most people use way less than they think.
Your API key means your conversations go directly from you to Claude/GPT/Gemini. We handle routing and integrations but never store or read your actual chat content. Your AI provider's privacy policy applies to your conversations—we just provide the infrastructure.
Absolutely. Swap between Claude and GPT-4 anytime, or even use different models for different tasks. That's the beauty of BYOK—you're never locked in.
Take your API key and go. It's yours. Your AI provider relationship is yours. We'll export your memory/context data if you want it. No lock-in, no hassle.
Stop Paying for AI

You already have a Claude subscription. Turn it into a 24/7 AI workforce. Bring your key, we'll handle the rest.
