You skip server setup, updates, maintenance, and infrastructure management so you can focus on building AI assistants.
What is Managed PicoClaw Hosting?
Managed PicoClaw Hosting lets you run PicoClaw without managing servers, Docker, Linux environments, updates, monitoring, or infrastructure. HeyPico handles everything so you can focus on building anything you want on top of PicoClaw.
Why host PicoClaw with HeyPico?
Instead of maintaining infrastructure yourself, HeyPico provides a production-ready PicoClaw environment with automatic updates, transparent token billing, graph memory, spending controls, and dashboard integration.
Can I use my own API keys?
Yes. You can connect your own OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, or other compatible AI providers.
Do I need API keys?
No. You can simply use HeyPico AI, where AI usage is billed through your HeyPico account with transparent token tracking and spending limits.
