KiloClaw is sunset. Kilo’s docs say it is no longer available to new users and support is ending; Kilo-Org/kilocode PR #14658 “docs: remove sunset KiloClaw and App Builder” (merged 2026-09-29) removes its docs and redirects
/docs/kiloclawto Getting Started. No exact end-of-service date was found. Kilo itself was acquired by Anaconda (anaconda; announced on anaconda.com, terms undisclosed). No exact end-of-service date was published; Kilo Code’s free tier ended 2026-03-23 and cloud services such as KiloClaw required payment from then (secondary). Text below describes the service at launch (Feb 2026, when OpenClaw had 161k+ stars; ~391k on 2026-10-01).
KiloClaw
by Kilo (Kilo Code, acquired by Anaconda)
Hosted, fully-managed Claude-powered AI assistant — OpenClaw as a service
Features
- Managed OpenClaw — runs OpenClaw infrastructure on your behalf; no self-hosting required
- 24/7 availability — persistent agent that proactively supports users (academic workflows, email triage, schedule management)
- Academic mode — tailored for students and educators: assignment help, class schedules, inbox triage
- Analytics dashboard — Kilo and Lander analytics built in for usage tracking
- KiloClaw Skills — extensible skill system similar to Claude Code skills
- Discord community — support and community via KiloClaw Discord
Superpowers
KiloClaw is the “plug-and-play” answer to self-hosting OpenClaw. Where OpenClaw requires running your own infrastructure (docker, API keys, config), KiloClaw handles everything — you get the same Claude-powered agentic experience without server management. Positioned as a direct competitor to OpenClaw for users who want capability without technical overhead. Popular in academic communities for always-on personal assistant workflows.
Pricing
-
Subscription-based while available; no tiers are retrievable now that the docs were removed
Facts at launch (unchanged, from Kilo materials)
- Each customer got a dedicated Firecracker microVM running their own OpenClaw instance, encrypted persistent storage, automated updates, daily backups; access to the Kilo Gateway (500+ models). Claimed “only managed OpenClaw hosting with a published independent security audit” (vendor claim).
- Alternatives now: self-host openclaw, Kimi Claw, or Cloudflare Workers deployment (cloudflare).
