Do I need my own AI API key to use LobsterLair?
No, AI is included with every subscription at no extra cost, utilizing MiniMax M2.7. You can optionally connect your own API key for models like Claude, GPT, or Gemini, but it's not required for basic functionality.
What capabilities does an OpenClaw AI agent offer through LobsterLair?
Your bot can browse the web, run code (Python, JavaScript, Go), handle voice messages, remember preferences, work with files, and summarize content. It's a full AI agent, not just a simple chatbot.
Is there a free trial available for LobsterLair?
No, LobsterLair does not currently offer a free trial. A $19/month subscription is required upfront, but you can cancel anytime directly from your dashboard without questions.
How is my data and conversations kept private and secure?
Your bot runs in an isolated container, sensitive data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and webchat is protected by your login. All data is stored in Germany on dedicated servers, with daily encrypted backups.
What happens to my bot and data if I cancel my subscription?
Your bot stops running at the end of the billing period, but your data, configuration, memory, and chat history are preserved for 30 days. If you resubscribe within this window, everything will be restored.
