Deploy and Host Clawdbot - Railway Template on Railway

Clawdbot - Railway Template is a one-click Railway deployment for running your own Clawdbot (gateway + Control UI) with a friendly /setup wizard. It stores state on a Railway Volume for persistence and supports onboarding without running terminal commands, then lets you chat with the bot via Telegram/Discord/Slack.

About Hosting Clawdbot - Railway Template

Hosting Clawdbot on Railway deploys a web-accessible Clawdbot Gateway and Control UI behind Railway’s HTTP proxy. You complete initial setup in the browser at /setup (secured with a password), providing your model credentials and optional chat channel tokens. The template mounts a persistent volume at /data so your configuration, credentials, conversations, and workspace survive restarts and can be exported for migration. After setup, Clawdbot runs continuously and you interact with it through your connected channels (Telegram/Discord/Slack) and/or the Control UI.

Common Use Cases

Run a personal AI assistant without maintaining a dedicated Mac mini or home server
Deploy a team bot that responds in Telegram/Discord/Slack with persistent memory and workflows
Host Clawdbot remotely with easy backups and the ability to migrate to another VPS later
