I set up 2 AI agents on a $9.49/month server last night
I get both hosted for just less then 10 bucks
Used VPS from Hetzner
This does not include AI model API costs
That depends on which model you are using
I get free trial for gemini-2.5-flash
Grok's API can also be a good option
I used Grok API for free in one of my AI agent project
If we know what we are doing and have technical skills to setup servers and configure them
we can definitely cut costs to very minimum
And don't need to break bank by buying Mac mini or expensive hosting plans
You just need 4GB RAM and 2 CPUs to run OpenClaw + Hermes + n8n
Recommendation is not to run this on your personal machine locally
I will talk about it later in coming posts
Go with option of VPS with these specifications
