So, as some of you guys might have done, we started a hosting for Openclaw type of a business, and holy, this thing grew to 300k ARR and even got a YC interview.

Last week was a bit hectic. We got a no from YC, and I was just thinking reflecting on the feedback we got.

We were playing with this whole company brain thing as well. We are doing two pilots for that too.

It's a Saturday. I just installed Hermes agent because Open Router Hermes agent was overtaking Openclaw, and holy shit, Hermes agent is so underrated, so so much underrated. Now I am rethinking my company.

Loving Hermes at the moment, trying Honcho with it now to boost its memory capability. Interesting to see where these go the next few months.

Hermes Agent is really decent.

Don't rethink your entire company, offer your customers choice instead. Some may prefer OpenClaw and others might be better served with Hermes Agent or even a third type. If you can find the best use-cases for each, you can help customers decide what they need when they buy your service and get all of the customers instead of a subset.
