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.
