  • Daily backups, 14-day retention

    Snapshot before every experiment. Restore in 30 seconds if something breaks.

Why run OpenClaw on a VPS instead of managed

Most "managed OpenClaw" plans give you a stripped-down version of the platform — limited skills, locked-down configuration, no terminal access. WHC's self-hosted approach gives you the full platform on dedicated resources, with full root access, so your agent can do everything OpenClaw is capable of.

  • Dedicated vCPU · no noisy neighbors
  • NVMe Gen4 storage · 7,000 MB/s read
  • Up to 16 GB RAM with persistent state
  • 40 ms median latency from anywhere in Canada

Know exactly what your agent is doing

When an agent has access to your inbox, calendar, and files, "trust but verify" matters. Every action your agent takes is logged, replayable, and exportable.

  • Real-time log streaming
  • Task replay · scrub through any agent run
  • Alerts to Slack, Discord, email, webhooks
  • 30-day audit trail included

Deploy OpenClaw in 3 easy steps

Get OpenClaw up and running quickly with a streamlined setup. From deployment to live operation, everything is kept simple—so you can focus on building and managing bots.

1

Pick a VPS plan

Choose between Edge, Power, or Ultra — switch any time, prorated.
2

Connect your AI

Add an API key from Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, etc. Or run a local model via Ollama for zero external dependencies.
3

Launch your agent

Connect OpenClaw to a messaging app (like Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp...), and start the conversation.

What you can build
with OpenClaw

OpenClaw isn't just a chatbot — it takes action on your connected tools. Here are some of the ways our customers and the OpenClaw community are using it.

Inbox triage

Sort overnight email by urgency, draft responses to recurring questions, and flag what actually needs your attention before you open your laptop.

Personal CRM

Log every customer call automatically. Schedule follow-ups, draft outreach, and never lose track of a warm lead in your inbox.

Code review assistant

Connect to your repo. Get a first-pass review on every PR — code style, test coverage, missing edge cases — before a human looks at it.

Research agent

Hand it a question. It crawls sources, summarizes findings, and cites every claim. Saves half-day deep-dives.

Expense logger

Forward receipts from your inbox or photograph them on your phone. The agent extracts the amount, vendor, and category, and logs each one to your spreadsheet or accounting tool.

Scheduler

Check calendars across your team, propose meeting times that work for everyone, and send invites — all from a chat message.

Sales assistant

Qualifies inbound leads, drafts outreach, and books meetings on your calendar based on rules you define.

Support agent

Handles 60% of incoming questions in Discord, Slack, or your support channel before a human needs to step in.

Trusted by Canadian
businesses since 2003

WHC has been Canada's hosting provider for over 20 years.
Our OpenClaw VPS is new — but the infrastructure under it is battle-tested.

Frequently Asked Questions

OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent platform that runs on your own server. It connects the messaging apps you already use — Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp, Discord — to an AI agent powered by the language model of your choice. You send a message to your bot, the agent processes your request (sometimes performing actions on your connected tools), and replies. Think of it as the bridge between chat apps and AI agents that can actually get things done.
Managed OpenClaw plans (like Hostinger's) handle AI model selection for you and include credits in your subscription. Self-hosted OpenClaw on a WHC VPS gives you full root access, lets you bring your own AI provider, and runs on infrastructure you control. Self-hosting is for builders who want total control. The managed version is for users who don't want to make any decisions.
Any provider supported by OpenClaw — Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, and several others. You can also run a local model via Ollama for zero external dependencies. You provide the API key; WHC doesn't mark up or resell model access.
Your agent's memory, conversation history, skills, and configuration are stored on your WHC VPS in the Canadian data center of your choice (Montreal, Toronto, or Vancouver). They never leave Canadian infrastructure. The only exception is the call to the AI model itself — when your agent sends a request to OpenAI or Anthropic, that request transits through the provider's servers (typically located in the United States). If sovereignty over inference matters for your use case, you can run a local model via Ollama and keep everything in Canada.
Less than you'd think. Your VPS ships with OpenClaw pre-installed and pre-configured. You sign in via your WHC Client Area with one click — no SSH, no installers, no database setup. The only technical steps are creating an API key with the AI provider of your choice (a 2-minute task with copy-paste instructions) and connecting your first messaging app. We have a step-by-step guide that takes about 15 minutes from start to finish.
Yes. OpenClaw supports multiple agents per instance, each with its own personality, skills, and connected tools. You could run one agent for personal productivity, another for your business, and a third for a specific project — all on the same VPS. Plan size determines how many agents you can run comfortably in parallel (Edge for 1, Power for 2 to 4, Ultra for 5 and up).
OpenClaw on a WHC VPS runs in an isolated LXD container, with dedicated CPU and memory. Your data doesn't share infrastructure with other tenants. You control the firewall, the list of users allowed to message the bot, and the API keys for connected services. WHC's underlying infrastructure is SOC 2 Type II certified. That said, OpenClaw is community-supported software — it doesn't come with enterprise SLAs. For business-critical use, we recommend strict allowlists, regular backups (included), and reviewing every skill you install.
Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Signal, iMessage, Matrix, Google Chat, and several others. You can connect more than one — many users run their agent on Telegram on their phone and on Slack for work.
Yes — that's the whole point of WHC's OpenClaw VPS. You choose your data center (Montreal, Toronto, or Vancouver) at signup. Your agent's memory, configuration, and persistent state all live on Canadian-owned infrastructure governed by Canadian law.
Shared hosting can't run OpenClaw at all — it requires root access, dedicated resources, and a long-running process. A cheap unmanaged VPS can run OpenClaw, but you'd be installing and maintaining everything yourself. WHC's OpenClaw VPS is the pre-installed, single-sign-on-ready version, with dedicated resources and Canadian sovereignty built in.
You bring your own. You sign up with the AI provider of your choice (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.), create an API key, and paste it into your OpenClaw dashboard. WHC doesn't resell or mark up AI model access — you pay the provider directly at published rates, with no middleman. It's one of the main reasons customers move to self-hosting: you control costs and you control the relationship.
Yes. OpenClaw's configuration, skills, and memory are stored on the VPS file system — you can back them up, export them, and move them to another server if you ever need to. No platform lock-in. Daily backups are included with all plans.

The moment your workflows pay off, you outgrow n8n Cloud

Most teams hit n8n Cloud's execution cap within weeks. A VPS gives you the performance flexibility, and control you need when automations become business-critical.

Unlimited executions

No per-workflow or per-execution pricing. Run 10 or 10 million — your monthly bill doesn't budge.

Dedicated performance

Your own CPU, RAM, and NVMe SSD. Run queue mode with multi-worker scaling when your workflows demand it.

Your data, your server

Meet PIPEDA, Law 25, SOC 2, and internal equirements with customer data that stays on Canadian-owned infrastructure.

Full control & extensibility

Root access, Docker, reverse proxy, custom environment variables, 200+ community nodes, custom domains. Make n8n yours.

Past 20,000 executions/mo?
You're losing money on n8n Cloud

A typical SMB workload — a Slack bot, a Stripe-to-Sheets sync, two scheduled CRM jobs, and a nightly data pipeline — burns through n8n Cloud's included executions in under a month. On a WHC VPS, the cost stays flat regardless of how much your workflows do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything developers ask before switching from n8n Cloud — or spinning up their first VPS.

n8n (pronounced "n-eight-n") is an open-source workflow automation platform. You connect apps, APIs, AI models, and your own data with a visual builder — Slack, Gmail, Stripe, HubSpot, OpenAI, Anthropic, your database, anything with an API. Then n8n runs your workflows automatically when triggers fire: a webhook arrives, a schedule hits, a row changes in your database. Think Zapier or Make, but open-source, self-hostable, and not metered.
n8n Cloud is the hosted version run by the n8n team. It's metered: you pay per execution, with plans starting at 2,500 executions/month. Self-hosted n8n is the same product running on a server you control — but with unlimited executions, no per-task billing, and full control over your data. The trade-off is that you (or your hosting provider) handle setup and maintenance. On a WHC VPS, n8n comes pre-installed and pre-configured.
Zapier is the most polished but charges per task — costs scale fast with multi-step workflows. Make is a middle ground with better visual logic at a lower price. n8n is the open-source option: unlimited executions when self-hosted, full code access, deeper customization, and significantly cheaper at any meaningful scale. The trade-off is a steeper learning curve (more technical) and slightly fewer pre-built integrations than Zapier's 8,000+. n8n has 400+ native integrations and connects to anything else via HTTP.
Yes. n8n's self-hosted version (Community Edition) has no software-imposed limits on workflows, steps, or executions. The only constraint is your VPS resources — RAM, CPU, and disk. A WHC VPS Power plan (4 GB RAM, dedicated CPU cores) comfortably handles tens of thousands of executions per month for most SMB workloads. Heavy users on Ultra can run hundreds of thousands.
Less than you'd expect. n8n comes pre-installed on your WHC VPS — no SSH, no Docker setup, no SSL certificate gymnastics. You sign into your n8n instance from your WHC Client Area and start building workflows. The places technical skills help: writing custom JavaScript in code nodes, debugging webhook signatures, and the occasional npm package install for community nodes. For everything else, the visual builder gets you 90% of the way.
Your n8n instance, your workflow definitions, your stored credentials, and your execution history all live on your WHC VPS in your chosen Canadian datacenter (Montreal, Toronto, or Vancouver). The only data that leaves Canadian infrastructure is what your workflows explicitly send to external services (a Slack message, a Stripe API call, an OpenAI prompt) — and that's true of any automation platform.
Yes — arguably more so than the cloud version, because your credentials and customer data don't sit in a multi-tenant database with millions of other workflows. WHC's underlying infrastructure is SOC 2 Type II certified. Your n8n instance runs in an isolated environment on dedicated resources, with daily backups, automatic SSL, and full firewall control. For businesses in regulated industries (finance, healthcare, government-adjacent), self-hosting is often the only acceptable answer.
Not automatically — Zapier and Make workflows don't export in n8n format. But the concepts translate cleanly: triggers, actions, and conditional logic all map directly. Most teams rebuild their highest-value Zaps first (the ones eating their task budget), then move others over as time permits. For agencies, this is a one-time investment that pays off in months through eliminated SaaS bills.
Yes. n8n has 70+ native AI nodes, including direct integrations with OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, and most major LLM providers — plus a built-in AI Agent node with LangChain support for multi-step agent logic. You can also run a local model via Ollama for fully sovereign AI workflows, where neither your data nor your prompts ever leave Canadian infrastructure.
For testing and personal automations, our Edge plan (4 GB RAM) is plenty. For day-to-day production workloads — Slack bots, CRM syncs, scheduled jobs — Power (8 GB RAM, dedicated CPU) is the sweet spot and what most customers pick. For agencies running automations for multiple clients, high-volume pipelines, or queue mode with workers, Ultra (16 GB RAM, 8 CPU cores) gives you the headroom. You can upgrade any time with zero downtime.
Yes. WHC is a Canadian-owned company with datacenters in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver. Hosting your n8n instance on a WHC VPS keeps your workflow data, credentials, and execution history on Canadian infrastructure governed by Canadian law — not subject to the US CLOUD Act that affects American hosting providers, even those with a "Canadian region." For Quebec businesses subject to Law 25 or any SMB handling PIPEDA-regulated data, this simplifies your privacy compliance story significantly.
The VPS infrastructure (host OS, firewall, backups) is managed by WHC. Daily server-level backups with 14-day retention are included on every plan. The n8n application itself follows the open-source release cycle — you choose when to update to a new n8n version, which means you're never forced into a breaking change. We provide guides and bilingual support to help if you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Web Hosting Canada Affiliate Program allows you to earn cash commissions by recommending WHC services. When someone signs up for an eligible WHC product using your unique affiliate link, you earn a commission once the sale is confirmed and validated.
After signing up, you’ll get access to your affiliate dashboard and a unique referral link. You can share this link on your website, blog posts, emails, on social media, or directly with clients and contacts.

When someone clicks your link and completes an eligible purchase, the referral is tracked automatically and appears in your affiliate dashboard.
The program is open to anyone who wants to recommend WHC, including agencies, developers, designers, digital marketers, content creators, educators, and comparison or review sites. You don’t need to be an existing WHC customer to join, but current clients can activate their affiliate dashboard directly from their Client Area.
WHC offers fixed commission amounts per sale, depending on the product purchased. Depending on the service, you can earn up to C$300 for a single referral. Eligible products include:
  • Web Hosting
  • WordPress Hosting
  • Reseller Hosting
  • VPS and Dedicated servers
  • SSL Certificates
  • Security products
  • Email Marketing services
  • Business Emails
Commissions are confirmed 60 days after the referred purchase to ensure the sale is final.

Once your confirmed commissions reach the minimum payout threshold of C$100, you can request a payout via PayPal, Interac e-Transfer, or WHC account credit.
All referrals are tracked automatically through your affiliate link. Your affiliate dashboard gives you full visibility into clicks, conversions, and earnings in real time.
No. You do not need a website or a registered business to join the WHC Affiliate Program.

That said, having a platform such as a website, blog, newsletter, or an active presence on social media can significantly increase your results. Online visibility allows you to share your link more broadly, build credibility, and generate ongoing referrals.

Many affiliates start by recommending WHC to their network and then grow their online presence to maximize their commissions. If you’re looking to build your affiliate revenue over the long term, having an online presence quickly becomes a real advantage.
Affiliates are not allowed to refer themselves or earn commissions on their own purchases.

Commissions apply to new qualifying orders placed through your affiliate link, including upgrades or additional services. Renewals do not qualify.

Affiliates are also expected to follow WHC’s terms and conditions and promote services responsibly.
Refer a Friend is designed for WHC clients with an active Web Hosting plan who want to casually recommend WHC to friends or colleagues. When someone signs up for an eligible annual Web Hosting plan and remains active for 45 days, you both receive 3 months of free hosting.

The Affiliate Program is designed for ongoing promotion and offers cash commissions on qualifying new orders across most WHC products. It’s ideal for anyone recommending WHC to a broader audience.

Refer a Friend rewards you with hosting credit, while the Affiliate Program pays cash once you reach the minimum payout threshold. Depending on your situation, you may be eligible to participate in both programs.
The Affiliate Program allows you to earn commissions by referring clients to WHC using your affiliate link. Each referred client creates their own WHC account, and WHC manages hosting, billing, and technical support directly with them. You earn commissions on qualifying new orders, but you do not manage the hosting accounts. However, clients can grant you access if needed.

Being a reseller means hosting multiple clients under your own Reseller Hosting account. You create your own hosting packages, set your own pricing, invoice your clients, and provide front-line support. This option is ideal for professionals who want full control over hosting services and generate recurring revenue.

In short, the Affiliate Program is best if you prefer to recommend WHC without managing client accounts. Being a reseller is better suited for professionals who want to offer hosting under their own brand and manage client relationships directly.

Allocate resources per website

Not all websites are equal. Your hosting shouldn’t treat them that way. Traditional hosting divides resources evenly across sites, even when only one site needs the power. Performance Cloud adapts resources based on real workload.

The "same-sized cookies" problem

Most hosting gives every site the same slice. Performance Cloud lets your busiest site get more, without wasting resources on quieter sites.
