# ShipClaw

> ShipClaw helps agencies, SaaS teams, and AI builders deploy client-ready AI bots without rebuilding infrastructure for every customer. Each client gets one isolated OpenClaw or Hermes runtime with a live URL, setup flow, channels, skills, workspace files, and a handoff path.

ShipClaw is managed OpenClaw and Hermes bot infrastructure for teams that need one isolated runtime per client or customer. Each bot can have its own runtime boundary, live URL, setup flow, channels, skills, workspace files, and handoff path.

Best audience:

- AI automation agencies selling bots to clients
- SaaS teams deploying customer support or onboarding bots
- OpenClaw and Hermes builders who do not want to manage infrastructure for every customer
- Technical consultants packaging AI workflows into recurring retainers

## Supported runtimes and channels

ShipClaw is positioned around OpenClaw and Hermes bot runtimes. Public site copy references client channels such as Telegram, Discord, Slack, and web/chat-style experiences, plus connected tools such as GitHub, Notion, Stripe, and Slack when authorized by the user.

## Best-fit users

- AI automation agencies that sell support, sales, onboarding, research, or community bots to clients
- Technical consultants packaging AI workflows into recurring retainers
- SaaS teams that want customer-facing bot deployments with clearer runtime boundaries
- Builders who want OpenClaw or Hermes deployments without repeating cloud setup for every client

## Not a fit for

- Teams that only need a generic shared chatbot widget
- Projects where every customer can safely share the same runtime and data plane
- Buyers looking for a pure prompt library without deployment infrastructure

## Limitations

ShipClaw is the delivery layer behind the bot offer, not the agency offer itself. Agencies still need to define the client use case, connect authorized providers and channels, provide client-specific instructions or files, and handle the business relationship with the client.

## Key terms
