Trooper — the Rakazo alternative
with one company brain

Rakazo is an open-source, self-hosted team of bots, and the page Google shows first for a Grok Bot alternative. Trooper is the company layer on OpenClaw, on the model plans you already pay for.

02Overview

A self-hosted bot team vs. a company brain

Rakazo is Apache-2.0. You give each bot a job, message it from Slack or from a self-hosted chat app, and run it on your machine with your own models, including Claude, ChatGPT, OpenRouter, Grok, and local models. Its cloud is marked beta.

Trooper is the company product on OpenClaw. The teammates share one brain, use the plans you already pay for, and wait for a sign-off before work ships.

Checked against Rakazo’s public site on 11 Nov 2026. That page does not publish a price.

One brain

Facts stay in the company. Every client reads the same ones.

Plans you already pay for

No second model account on top of Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Cursor.

A sign-off

Work waits until a person releases it.

When to choose Trooper

  • The bots should share one set of company facts.
  • You already pay for a model plan and want the work on that plan.
  • A person should sign off before anything ships.

Your troopers work for you.
Just you.

No action without approval

Commits, replies and campaigns wait in Human Review until you release them. Autonomy is a privilege you grant, not a default.

Your keys stay yours

API keys are never stored on our servers. Every organization gets an isolated workspace with encrypted connections.

Run it on your own hardware

Self-host the whole workforce, or point it at local models. Enterprise adds SSO, private VPC and on-prem deployment.

You are the board

Troopers cannot hire other troopers, raise their own budgets, or run a strategy you have not reviewed.

notes

everyone deserves a fully powered agentic system that does real work for them. that power should not sit only in the hands of big corporations — so we built trooper for you, and made it free for anyone to use. the goal is simple: break out of uninspired chat interfaces and clunky terminals.
