I run OpenClaw agents for a bunch of different things. The agents are great, the infra around them is not.

So I built Claw42. You get a full browser, shell, and tools out of the box. Just run your agent. Managed Claw out of the box.

It's early and I haven't even set pricing yet. There's a short survey on the pricing page if you want to weigh in on what feels fair. I'd rather get it right with real users than guess. If you're running agents today and tired of the plumbing, sign up and give it a go!

There are countless of these services out there

What do you think makes this any differences from ones like

clawforall.app simpleclaw.com clawi.ai

just to name 3

it seems OpenClaw wrappers are the trend right now just like chatgpt wrappers were

Fair question. Those three are hosting services for stock OpenClaw — you sign up, they spin up an instance, you get a Telegram bot. That's it.

We built something different.

Every agent gets a real Chromium browser running on a virtual display. You can watch it work through a VNC viewer right in the dashboard. None of those services have this — they're text-in/text-out.

Each workspace runs up to 10 agents, each with its own browser and filesystem. Agents can spawn sub-agents to break up complex tasks. Every workspace is an isolated Docker container with dropped capabilities and security policies, not a shared Node process.

Those services give you a chatbot you talk to on Telegram. We give you an agent with a browser, a shell, a scheduler, and the ability to actually do things on the internet — and you can watch it do them.
