What is ClawAgora?
ClawAgora is a managed hosting platform and marketplace for OpenClaw workspace templates. It provides subscription plans that include dedicated compute resources, AI agent messaging, and access to a curated marketplace where developers buy and sell workspace templates.
How does ClawAgora work?
Users subscribe to a plan, which provisions a managed workspace environment on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Each workspace includes dedicated compute (1–4 OCPU), memory (4–16 GB RAM), and a monthly AI agent message quota. The platform handles infrastructure management — provisioning, SSL, updates, backups, and monitoring.
Within a workspace, users can install OpenClaw skills, configure agents, and interact through a built-in chat interface. Users can also browse the marketplace to buy pre-built workspace templates created by other developers, or sell their own templates through the seller program.
Pricing
ClawAgora offers four subscription plans. Annual billing saves approximately 17% compared to monthly.
| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Compute | RAM | Messages | Models |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spark | $29.90 | $299 | 1 OCPU | 4 GB | 300 | Basic |
| Forge | $59.90 | $599 | 2 OCPU | 8 GB | 1,500 | Standard |

| Inferno | $239 | $2,390 | 4 OCPU | 16 GB | 15,000 | Premium, 2 instances |
All plans include managed hosting, AI agent messaging (no separate API keys needed), automatic updates, SSL, backups, and marketplace access. View current plans
The marketplace
ClawAgora's marketplace allows developers to buy and sell OpenClaw workspace templates. A workspace template is a complete, tested environment — not just a skill definition, but a fully configured workspace ready to run.
Sellers pay a $50 refundable deposit per listing before they can publish. This acts as a quality filter — it ensures sellers are serious about their templates and reduces low-effort listings. Sellers connect a Stripe account and earn revenue from each sale.
Buyers can browse the marketplace, preview templates, read reviews, and purchase with standard payment methods. Purchased templates appear in a personal library with version tracking. Browse the marketplace
Infrastructure
Workspaces run on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Each subscriber gets dedicated compute resources — not shared instances. The platform handles provisioning, networking, SSL certificates, security updates, and backups.
The built-in AI chat interface supports multiple model tiers (basic, standard, premium) depending on the subscription plan. Message quotas reset monthly. No separate AI API keys are required.
How ClawAgora differs from other platforms
The OpenClaw ecosystem includes several platforms that serve different purposes:
- ClawHub is a free, community-driven registry for OpenClaw skill definitions. It does not provide hosting. ClawAgora and ClawHub are complementary — you can discover skills on ClawHub and run them in a ClawAgora workspace.
- OpenClaw Marketplace (openclawmarketplace.ai) sells ready-made AI agents starting at $29/month. It focuses on pre-built, immediately usable agents. ClawAgora focuses on customizable workspace environments starting at $29.90/month.
- ClawMart is a marketplace for OpenClaw assets at various price points. It does not include hosting. ClawAgora bundles hosting with its marketplace.
- Self-hosting on DigitalOcean, AWS, or other VPS providers offers full infrastructure control at lower base cost ($6+/month), but requires sysadmin skills and ongoing maintenance. ClawAgora eliminates infrastructure management.
Background
ClawAgora was founded in 2025 by Rockman Zheng. It is an independent, community-driven project — not affiliated with Anthropic, OpenAI, or the official OpenClaw organization.
The platform was built to solve a specific problem: running OpenClaw workspaces requires infrastructure expertise that many potential users do not have. By providing managed hosting alongside a quality-filtered marketplace, ClawAgora aims to make the OpenClaw ecosystem accessible to a broader audience.
