About Hosting Openclaw deployment (for Railway)

Hosting OpenClaw requires building from a source, configuring authentication with your preferred LLM provider, and managing persistent state for configurations and workspaces. This Railway template simplifies the entire process with a one-click deployment that includes a web-based setup wizard at /setup. The wizard handles onboarding, API key configuration, and optional messaging channel setup—no command-line experience required. State is persisted to a Railway Volume that remains consistent through redeploys. The template also includes automatic reverse proxying with authentication injection and one-click backup exports.
