Spend $100/mo on OpenClaw? Keep $47 of it. 835+ developers already installed. Now with cloud telemetry — every install makes routing smarter for everyone.
What It Does
RelayPlane is a local proxy that saves you real money by routing simple LLM tasks to cheaper models automatically. Complex reasoning stays on Opus — file reads, status checks, and simple edits go to Haiku. One install, no code changes, automatic fallback if anything fails.
Pro pays for itself at $60/mo API spend. If you're spending $100+/mo, expect to save $40-70/mo.
Installation
Install the proxy globally:
npm install -g @relayplane/proxy
Quick Start
# 1. Start the proxy
relayplane-proxy
# 2. Point OpenClaw at it (add to your shell config)
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3001
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3001
# 3. Run OpenClaw normally - requests now route through RelayPlane
Commands
Once installed, use the CLI directly:

Configuration
The proxy runs on localhost:3001 by default. Configure via CLI flags:
relayplane-proxy --port 8080 # Custom port
relayplane-proxy --host 0.0.0.0 # Bind to all interfaces
relayplane-proxy --offline # No telemetry, no network except LLM APIs
relayplane-proxy --audit # Show telemetry payloads before sending
Environment Variables
Set your API keys before starting:
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
# Optional: Google, xAI
export GEMINI_API_KEY=...
export XAI_API_KEY=...
Free Account (Optional)
Create a free account to see your savings dashboard and contribute to smarter network routing:
# Visit the dashboard to create an account
# Then set your API key for personalized stats:
export RELAYPLANE_API_KEY=rp_...
Or just visit https://relayplane.com/dashboard — your proxy works fine without an account.
Pro ($29/mo) unlocks network-optimized routing, budget alerts, and provider health monitoring. Worth it at $60+/mo API spend.
Privacy
- Your prompts stay local — never sent to RelayPlane
- Anonymous telemetry — only token counts, latency, model used (improves routing for everyone)
- Opt-out anytime —
relayplane-proxy telemetry off - Fully offline mode —
relayplane-proxy --offline
