Seems very different from the other listed options in parent's comment if you need an online account with Eve to even use it.

I see your point. The others are self-hosted, and you bring your own key. Personally, I like the convenience Eve's online account provides. It's dead simple to be up and off to the races, getting useful work done with little effort. After struggling with OpenClaw, it has been a very pleasant experience. Several people in our company are using it now.

More importantly, they don't require an account with a company you don't know how long it'll exist.

It's less about "self-hosted vs not" and more about "If I start relying on this tool and the company eventually gets bought/sold/disappears/burns up, what can I do?"

On top of that, they're using wildly wrong TLD, it's not a generic fun TLD to do whatever with, it's specifically for doing a "New Action" in an existing platform. Gives me the impression they don't really know what they're doing.
