A complete browser-based AI development environment you install on any VPS. Agent chat, sandboxed code execution, remote desktop, project management — connect your own AI providers and own your entire stack.
Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 or Debian 12+. Takes 2–5 minutes. Disconnected? Run it again — it resumes.
A $20/mo VPS with flat-rate AI subscriptions costs a fraction of dedicated hardware + pay-per-token API keys. The portal is free — here's what the total setup looks like.
* API cost estimates based on moderate-to-heavy developer usage. OAuth flat-rate subscriptions cap your monthly cost regardless of usage volume.

BridgesLLM Portal runs on OpenClaw — the open-source agent framework that connects to every major AI provider via OAuth. Flat-rate access, no token counting, no surprise bills.

BridgesLLM Portal is free and open source. You just need a VPS and your AI subscriptions. Compare that to buying hardware and paying per-token API rates.
* OAuth flat-rate subscriptions mean predictable costs regardless of usage. Pay-per-token API pricing can spike unpredictably with heavy AI use.
