The marketing pages lead with the outcome. This one is for the people who want to know exactly what runs on their hardware. The engine is OpenClaw — an open-source, MIT-licensed, self-hosted AI agent platform, and we’ll say it plainly: the engine is a commodity. What you hire Cove for is the business layer — your workflows encoded, proven against acceptance tests, and answered for.
On a rescue we audit dozens of failure modes. These are the technical signatures — if any of them mean something to you, you already know why we look.
Cove never hosts, runs, or owns any client’s instance. The operator runs on your hardware, configured to your doctrine. Conversations, credentials, and memory live on your machine; model calls go to your AI provider under your own keys. Cove has access only during an engagement, and it ends when the engagement does.
If you fire us tomorrow, the operator keeps running. Nothing you depend on goes with us.
The engine is open and cheap. The craft is encoding a business into it and proving the result. Let’s put one to work on yours.
