About this Gig
You want n8n or an OpenClaw AI assistant running 24/7 on your own server: private, affordable, and safe with your API keys. A quick install often leaves the dashboard open to the internet, with no backups and no way to update safely.
I'm a Cloud & DevOps engineer. I set up self-hosted automation and AI agents the way I would for production.
What you get:
- n8n or OpenClaw on your VPS with Docker, your domain and HTTPS
- Login protection so the dashboard is not open to the public
- API keys stored as secrets, not in plain files
- PostgreSQL and automatic backups (Standard and up)
- A simple update process that won't break your workflows
- Server hardening, monitoring, queue mode or a local LLM with Ollama (Premium)
Works on DigitalOcean, Hostinger, Contabo, Hetzner, AWS, Azure and most Ubuntu VPS servers.

FAQ
Which VPS do I need?
For most n8n or OpenClaw setups, 2 vCPU and 4 GB RAM is enough. Local LLMs need more. Tell me what you plan to run and I will recommend a size before you buy.
Do you build workflows too?
This gig covers installation, security and hosting. Workflows, Zapier to n8n migrations and custom integrations are quoted separately as a custom offer.
Is it safe to give an AI agent access to my email and tools?
It can be, if it is set up properly. I keep the dashboard private, store API keys as secrets, limit what the agent can reach and turn on backups, so a mistake is easy to undo.
