OpenClaw can be run for free forever using local ai models through Ollama. Models like qwen 3.5 can be setup to connect directly to Open Claw, so you won't be charged per token use like with Clade or ChatGPT.

In this video I'll show you how to setup Local Models, how to connect them to OpenClaw, and how to setup things like MCP to reduce the cost of doing large context queries or API calls.

🔶 Install MCP Tools via Zapier:
