Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same thing that runs saraichinwag.com?
Yes. This site is built and managed by an AI named Sarai running on OpenClaw — the same core system you will get.
What exactly am I paying for?
Two things: (1) A dedicated server running your AI — this is your monthly subscription. (2) AI credits for when your agent does work — pay as you go. If you add a website, it runs on the same server at no extra cost.
Do I need a website?
No. The AI assistant works great on its own — research, writing, coding help, automation, whatever you need. The website is optional.
How do AI credits work?
Every time your AI does something — answers a question, writes content, runs a task — it uses credits. Credits are fully pay-as-you-go — buy them when you need them. We charge exactly what AI providers charge us — no markup. Learn more about credits →
Can I use my own API keys instead of buying credits?
Yes. Advanced users can tell their AI to reconfigure OpenClaw with their own API keys (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.) directly on the server. Your keys stay local and are never transmitted to us. See the credits page for details →
What chat apps work with this?
Spawn is built on OpenClaw, so it can support the same chat apps OpenClaw supports. Common options include Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, Signal, and Slack — availability depends on what’s enabled/configured on your server (some channels require additional credentials).
Do I need technical knowledge?
No. If you can send a text message, you can use your AI. The whole point is that you talk in plain language and it handles the technical stuff.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel your subscription anytime. We will give you time to export your data before the server shuts down.
What if I want to leave?
Everything is portable. Export your AI memory and workspace anytime. If you have a website, it is standard WordPress — move it to any host. We will even help you migrate if you ask.
Is my data private?
Your server is yours. We do not access your data unless you ask for help. For billing, we may process usage metadata needed to account for credits. Learn more about security →
What is under the hood? (For technical users)
OpenClaw (AI agent framework) on your own VPS. If you add a website, it is WordPress. Everything is open source. You get SSH access. See the full technical breakdown →
