Only plans with at least 2 GB RAM are listed. The figures below come from each project's own documentation.

OpenClaw: OpenClaw needs Node 24.16+ or 26.1+ (Node 26 recommended, ARMv7 unsupported), and its Raspberry Pi guide sets a floor of 1 GB RAM, one core, 500 MB free disk and a 64-bit OS, recommending 2 GB+ RAM. The DigitalOcean guide uses a 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 25 GB droplet with swap added, while building the Docker image from source needs at least 6 GB RAM (pre-built images avoid that). Models come from hosted providers such as Anthropic, OpenAI or Gemini, or from local runtimes like Ollama, so the gateway itself needs no GPU.
