Where it runs	Your own server, from one Docker Compose file. It needs 4 GB of RAM on amd64 or arm64.	Your own machine or server: macOS, Linux or Windows on Node.js, or a Docker, Podman or Kubernetes container.
Price	Free for up to five users on your own server, then US$39 per user a month self-hosted or US$99 hosted, with custom terms for enterprises. You pay your model providers for usage.	Free under the MIT licence, with no hosted tier and no paid edition. You pay your model provider for usage.

you want one assistant you can reach from WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord and the other chat apps you already use
it is for you, or for a small team that trusts each other and is happy to share one gateway
you want to pick a model provider per agent, including a local model that needs no cloud key

the whole company needs one sign-in, with roles, an audit trail and companies kept apart in the database
the records agents produce must live in a database your organisation owns, not in an agent's workspace files
agents should build apps your team opens as ordinary pages, with each viewer's permissions checked on every call
you want Claude Code, pi and Hermes Agent available in one place

Roles that are enforced
OpenClaw's multi-user docs say that "everyone who can operate an agent can make it do anything that agent can do." In KyoubeAI, people and agents each get a role and a data access level, and companies are kept apart in the database.
Company records in a database
Agents design and fill a Postgres database the company owns, with every change audited. OpenClaw's memory is Markdown files in each agent's own workspace.
Apps your team can open
Agents build apps that people open as ordinary pages, and each app checks the viewer's own permissions on every call. OpenClaw does not build apps.
