Quick Start
Get your first AI agent running in under 5 minutes.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, you will need:
- A DigitalOcean account (for Self-Hosted plan) or just sign up for Managed
- A Tailscale account with an auth key
- An AI API key from OpenAI, Anthropic, or another supported provider
Step 1: Download and Install
Download Office Claws for your platform from the homepage.
Step 2: Choose Your Plan
- Self-Hosted ($4.99/mo) -- You provide the DigitalOcean account, we handle orchestration
- Managed ($14.99/mo) -- We provide everything, just bring your AI key
Step 3: Connect Your Keys
Enter your API tokens in the setup wizard. Your keys are stored locally and never sent to our servers.
Step 4: Provision Your Agent
Click "Create Agent" and watch as Office Claws provisions a VPS, installs the agent runtime, and connects everything via Tailscale. This takes about 2-3 minutes.
Step 5: Start Chatting
Once your agent appears at their desk in the office, click on them to open the chat panel. Send your first message and see the response.
