hetzner.com (or any VPS provider).Ubuntu 24.04 + Docker + Ollama (model runtime) + Open WebUI (chat interface) + Caddy (auto-HTTPS reverse proxy).
hetzner.com/cloud.Ashburn, VA (closest to PR/NYC) or Hillsboro, OR.Ubuntu 24.04.CPX31 (4 vCPU / 8GB RAM, ~$10/mo) for production. For testing only, CX22 (~$4/mo).cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub. If you do not have one, create with ssh-keygen -t ed25519.openclaw-ai-01 and click Create & Buy Now.In Cloudflare (or your registrar), add an A record:
ai.your-domain.com A <server-ip> Proxy: OFF
ssh root@<server-ip>
apt update && apt -y upgrade adduser claw usermod -aG sudo claw rsync --archive --chown=claw:claw ~/.ssh /home/claw
Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and set:
PermitRootLogin no PasswordAuthentication no
Then reload SSH:
systemctl restart ssh
ufw allow OpenSSH ufw allow 80/tcp ufw allow 443/tcp ufw --force enable
claw not root: ssh claw@<server-ip>curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh sudo usermod -aG docker $USER newgrp docker
docker run --rm hello-world
Should print "Hello from Docker!". If it does, this step is done.

Caddy will automatically obtain a Let's Encrypt certificate on first request. Wait ~30 seconds, then load https://ai.your-domain.com in a browser.
https://ai.your-domain.com → create the first admin account (this becomes the owner; lock it down).cd ~/openclaw && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
In Hetzner Cloud Console → your server → Snapshots → enable weekly. ~$1/mo extra. Restoring is one click.
