Vessel for OpenClaw: Managed AI Agents on Private VMs

What is Vessel for OpenClaw: Managed AI Agents on Private VMs?

300,000+ OpenClaw instances are currently exposed on the public internet (Shodan: port 18789). Most self-hosted setups miss the tunnel, skip the required flags, share containers. When your agent processes untrusted input and holds access to your accounts, that gap matters. Vessel provides private, dedicated hosting for OpenClaw agents. Each agent runs on its own GCP e2-standard-2 VM, its own kernel, its own disk, no shared memory with other tenants. No public IP. No port 18789 exposure. All traffic routes through an encrypted Cloudflare Tunnel. Secrets are managed separately from the runtime. Provision from a web dashboard, connect to Slack, Discord, or WhatsApp, and destroy when done. Your agent's data stays on your VM, your own Vessel.
