OpenClaw Cost Calculator
Accurately model and forecast monthly LLM API token expenditures for your OpenClaw personal AI assistant. Compare real-time token rates across Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and DeepSeek based on your daily message frequency and agent workload.
Includes system prompt, tool schemas, conversation history, and the agent's generated reply. Standard OpenClaw turns average 1,500–3,500 tokens.
Token Distribution Breakdown (40% Input / 60% Output)
*Note: OpenClaw workflows typically exhibit an asymmetric token split because agent tools generate multi-step chain-of-thought instructions and detailed responses, while prior conversation turns compound into the input context.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is OpenClaw?
OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI assistant framework you run yourself — it connects to models from providers like Anthropic, OpenAI, and DeepSeek via their APIs.
How does OpenClaw billing work?
You pay each AI provider directly for the API tokens your assistant consumes — there is no single OpenClaw subscription.
Why do costs differ so much between models?
Models price tokens differently: smaller models like Claude Haiku cost far less per million tokens than flagship models like Claude Sonnet or GPT-4o.
Are the estimates exact?
No. They are planning estimates based on your inputs and the pricing built into the tool — actual bills depend on real usage and current provider prices.
Is the calculator free?
Yes, free with no signup.
