$4.99/mo

Keep your AI agent running with your laptop closed.

That is today's price for an OpenClaw or Hermes agent that Hostinger sets up and keeps online for you. You pay $119.76 up front for 24 months, and you have 30 days to get your money back.

Find my plan or compare all 6 options

You text your agent. Nothing comes back.

It worked all afternoon. Then you closed the lid and went to dinner, and the Telegram chat went quiet. The laptop fell asleep, and your agent went down with it.

That is not a mistake in your setup. A laptop is built to sleep. An agent is built to stay up. On the same machine, the laptop wins every time.

The fix is a computer that never sleeps, and the hosts selling one know it. So the ad says $4.99 a month and the checkout says $119.76. This page puts both numbers next to each other, for every option, before you click anything.

Pick what you want running

Two taps. You get one plan and its real numbers: the monthly price, what you pay today, and what it turns into later.

Three things to know before you pay

  1. The monthly price is paid all at once

    "$4.99 a month" sounds like $4.99 today. It is $119.76 today, because the low price only comes with a 24-month plan. Hostinger gives you 30 days to ask for your money back.

  2. The price goes up when the plan renews

    After 24 months the same plan renews at $9.99 or $11.99 a month. Put a reminder in your calendar for month 23 so you can decide before the renewal hits.

  3. The AI is a separate bill

    The server keeps your agent awake. The thinking is done by an AI model, and that is billed by how much you use it. Hostinger's managed plan starts you with some credits and you top up after that. On Cloudways, or on your own server, you plug in a key from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google and pay them.

What setup looks like on the managed plan

Hostinger says your agent is live in about a minute. The official OpenClaw guide says to allow 5 to 10. Either way, there is no terminal.

  1. Pick the plan and pay

    Hostinger builds the agent's home for you. No install guide and no Linux commands.

  2. Connect your chat app

    Scan a code for WhatsApp, or paste a bot token for Telegram.

  3. Say hi, then close your laptop

    Message your agent from your phone. It answers from Hostinger's computers, so yours can be off.

Before you hand an agent the keys

An always-on agent can read, click and send things for you. Most of this list comes straight from OpenClaw's own security guide.

Read the full guide

  • Give it its own accounts

    Use a separate phone number and a separate inbox for the agent. Keep it out of your personal Google and Apple accounts.

  • Leave pairing on

    When a stranger messages your agent, they get a pairing code and no answer. Keep it that way.

  • Keep the control panel private

    On a managed plan the host locks this down. On your own server, never open the gateway to the internet without a token or password.

  • Run the built-in check

    On your own server, type openclaw security audit. It flags settings that drifted from the safe defaults.

  • Cap what it can spend

    Set a monthly limit with your AI provider before you connect a key.

Questions people ask

Is $4.99 a month the whole cost?

No. You pay $119.76 today for 24 months. After that the plan renews at $9.99 or $11.99 a month. AI usage is extra on every host on this page.

Can I get my money back?

Hostinger has a 30-day money-back guarantee on these plans. Cloudways bills month to month with no lock-in, so you can stop after any month. Railway gives you $20 in credits when you sign up through our link.

Do I need to know Linux?

Not on a managed plan. On your own server the app installs with one click, but you are the admin after that. Updates and security are yours.

Does my laptop need to stay on?

No. The agent lives on the host's computers. You talk to it from Telegram or WhatsApp on your phone.

How fresh are these prices?

We read every price off the host's own pricing page on November 11, 2026. Hostinger is running a Black Friday sale right now, so its prices may change when the sale ends. Always check the total at checkout.

How does RunAgents247 make money?

Some hosts pay us a commission when you sign up through our links. It does not change your price. Three options on this page pay us nothing: n8n Cloud, Claude Code on the web, and doing it yourself. They are here because sometimes they are the right answer.
