14-day free trial — no credit card required
Full Developer tier — persistent vault memory, unlimited executions, Regional Hub endpoint. No credit card required.
Evaluate the full Developer tier — not a crippled sandbox. When the trial ends, continue at $29/mo or upgrade to Teams. Prefer zero cost? Self-host the full Apache 2.0 stack with no feature restrictions.
Start free trialDocument processing tiers are onboarding first tenants
No perpetual free hosted plan — self-host free forever on Apache 2.0, or start a 14-day Developer trial. Gateway tiers run on multi-tenant Regional Hubs with unlimited MCP executions, vault memory with no egress penalties on recall, and Onyx search on Teams. IDP tiers (Starter $299+) activate document processing, VDR, and sovereign inference on a dedicated tenant. One Agentic Gateway endpoint for every tier: upgrade from Teams to Starter without changing your URL, auth token, or vault history.
Start your 14-day trial or self-host free with npm or Helm — full Apache 2.0 stack, no license fee.
Plugin bundles — price each layer against the right incumbent.
ClawQL is an Agentic Gateway for Auditable Production AI, not a single SKU. Developer and Teams tiers replace stateless MCP routers like executor.sh with a Regional Hub gateway, persistent vault memory, Onyx semantic search, twelve compounding token-efficiency layers, and unlimited executions. Starter through Professional compete with IDP and VDR incumbents — only when you opt into document processing. Gateway buyers should not subsidize GPU inference they never use.
vs executor.sh (Agentic Gateway)
Team connecting Cursor to GitHub, Stripe, Jira — heavy daily agent usage
Incumbent: executor.sh Team: $150/org/mo + $0.20/1,000 overage — pay more as agents work harder
ClawQL: Teams: $99/mo — unlimited executions, edge-hosted gateway, vault memory, Onyx search
No execution meter, no egress tax on vault recall. executor.sh meters executions and bills overage.
vs Hyperscience (IDP)
Business tier: 25,000 documents/mo × ~5 pages = 125,000 pages
Incumbent: ~$1.50/page → ~$187,500/mo
ClawQL: Business (IDP bundle): $599/mo flat
Volume-based IDP pricing scales linearly with every page processed.
vs VDR incumbents
Starter IDP bundle with Coneshare VDR included
Incumbent: Intralinks/Datasite: $10K–$200K+/yr; Ansarada ~$3,069/mo for 5 GB
ClawQL: Starter: $299/mo ($3,588/yr)
Legacy VDR adds storage overages ($100–$300/GB), per-seat fees, and setup charges.
vs executor.sh — a tool, not a platform
A tool — not a platform. executor.sh normalizes OpenAPI/GraphQL/MCP into a search-and-execute gateway with host-side secret injection and basic audit logging. That is the complete product, and it does that job well.
executor.sh pricing
- Free $0 — 3 members · 10,000 executions/mo cap
- Team $150/org/mo — 250,000 executions/mo cap · $0.20/1,000 overage · basic audit log only
- ClawQL All tiers — Unlimited MCP executions on every hosted tier — no caps, no overage, no meter.
ClawQL gateway tiers
Developer $29/mo · Teams $99/mo
executor.sh is a focused routing tool. ClawQL is the Foundational Platform: the same Layer 1 search/execute pattern, then seven additional efficiency layers, persistent vault memory, Onyx semantic search, defense-in-depth security, and an optional full IDP platform behind one Agentic Gateway endpoint.
Their head start is developer marketing and community mindshare — real advantages. On every dimension that matters for infrastructure decisions — memory, security depth, token efficiency, document pipeline, sovereign inference — ClawQL is categorically different, delivers more, and costs less at comparable gateway tiers.
| Dimension | executor.sh | ClawQL |
|---|---|---|
| Category | Tool — routes MCP calls, injects secrets, meters executions. | Agentic Gateway for Auditable Production AI — gateway, memory, search, security, IDP, and optional sovereign inference in one platform. |
| Developer adoption | Head start: strong developer marketing, YC backing, and growing community mindshare. That is their real advantage. | Later entrant with deeper stack — published case studies, open-source core, self-host evaluation path, and production deployments. |
| Token efficiency architecture | One layer: search-and-execute pattern only. | Twelve compounding layers — Code Mode through response trimming, caching, PAL routing, gateway refinements, and the fine-tuning flywheel on top of search/execute. |
| Agent memory | None. No cross-session memory, no vault, no memory_recall. | Built-in Obsidian vault — agents recall architectural decisions from prior sessions. No egress penalties on memory recall. |
| Semantic search | None. | Onyx enterprise search — 40+ connectors, hybrid keyword + vector, citation-backed results. |
| Security architecture | Host-side secret injection and basic audit log. No public defense-in-depth documentation. | Kata VM isolation, WORM Merkle audit logs, Panguard fail-closed ATR, model weight integrity verification, Presidio pre-log redaction — documented at docs.clawql.com/security/defense-in-depth. |
| Document processing pipeline | None. | Full IDP — Tika, Gotenberg, Stirling-PDF, archive layer, Merkle audit per step. |
| Virtual data room | None. | Coneshare VDR included from IDP Starter tier — trackable links, engagement analytics, watermarking. |
| Sovereign LLM inference | None. All inference routes to external APIs. | Fine-tuned Qwen3.6-27B inside tenant boundary — Istio egress block, no tokens leave the namespace. Vertical adapters are early; we name maturity risk openly. |
| Execution pricing | 250,000 cap on Team + $0.20/1,000 overage. Customers watch a meter and throttle agents. | Unlimited executions on every tier. No caps, no overage bills, no egress tax on vault recall. |
| Pricing (gateway-only) | Team $150/org/mo — metered executions, no memory or search. | Developer $29/mo with vault memory; Teams $99/mo adds Onyx search. IDP from $299/mo. All unlimited executions. |
Real estate: CRM knows the deal, Drive holds the files
Keller Williams Command, eXp BoldTrail, Follow Up Boss, and Compass track contacts and pipeline — but Google Drive folders do not classify title commitments, extract offer contingencies, or link documents back to the deal record. Coordinators re-read PDFs; FSBO sellers compare offers manually.
Teams tier ($99/mo): Agentic Gateway connects Command API + Google Drive; Onyx indexes transaction folders semantically; vault memory threads deal context across sessions. Add IDP Starter ($299/mo) when you need classify/extract on title commitments and PSAs, or Coneshare VDR for trackable disclosure packages instead of ad-hoc Drive links.
Teams $99/mo for agent memory + unified search; IDP Starter when document processing is required.
- REsimpli (Basic $149/mo · Pro $299/mo · Enterprise $599/mo) — CRM-only for real estate investors — no Agentic Gateway, no semantic document layer, no VDR pipeline integration.
- Dotloop / SkySlope (Per-agent transaction fees) — Forms, e-sign, broker compliance — not document intelligence or cross-deal memory. Complementary, not competitive.

What to expect in evaluations
Tool vs operating system
executor.sh routes tool calls — a focused, well-marketed tool. ClawQL is the Foundational Platform: memory, search, security, document pipeline, and sovereign inference behind one Agentic Gateway. Buyers who need routing only should evaluate executor.sh. Buyers who need Auditable Production AI should not mistake a tool for a platform.
Where executor.sh leads
Developer mindshare and go-to-market velocity — YC backing, community growth, and brand recognition in the Agentic Gateway category. We acknowledge that plainly. Technical depth, security architecture, persistent memory, and platform breadth are where ClawQL competes — not on who shipped Layer 1 routing first.
Collaboration before competition
Before publishing head-to-head comparisons, we approached executor.sh about collaboration and shared MCP ecosystem work. Those overtures were not engaged. We document our positioning directly for buyers making infrastructure decisions — not to start a marketing feud.
Focus: plugin bundles, not four companies at once
The surface area is large — gateway, IDP, VDR, sovereign inference, and DAOS coordination on the roadmap. Sales focus follows plugin bundles: Developer/Teams for agent builders connecting tools; Starter+ for document-heavy teams in legal, M&A, healthcare, and lending who opt into IDP explicitly. You only pay for the heavy stack when you activate it.
Shipped today vs roadmap
ClawQL Core (search, execute, audit, cache), vault memory, Onyx search, the IDP pipeline, and the Ouroboros evolutionary loop library are shipped and documented with case studies. DAOS swarm coordination (NSV, SGDOP, Diversity Dividends) is specified and on the P0–P3 build plan — not production-hardened yet. We separate spec from shipped code in evaluations.
Sovereign inference maturity
Tenant-bound fine-tuned models (Qwen3.6 family and vertical adapters) are a deliberate differentiation bet. Base weights and adapter tooling are newer than incumbent cloud APIs — we name that risk for regulated buyers who need references and compliance history, not just architecture slides.
Unlimited executions — deliberate pricing
Gateway tiers run at the Regional Hub and scale with demand — an extra execution or memory_recall costs us almost nothing in egress. Charging per execution creates a perverse incentive to throttle agents. ClawQL prices on hosting model, storage, and plugin bundles. Unlimited executions on every hosted tier. Self-host free forever on Apache 2.0. executor.sh caps usage and bills $0.20/1,000 overage.
Seamless tier upgrades
One MCP endpoint on every tier. Upgrade from Teams to Starter and your URL, auth token, and vault memory history stay the same — agents retain full context without a migration project. IDP infrastructure activates behind the same endpoint.
Where incumbents still lead
ABBYY Vantage ships 150+ pre-trained skills for common document types. ClawQL Professional includes one vertical fine-tune adapter; building the full library takes time. We state this openly in competitive evaluations rather than overclaiming day-one parity.
