Switching Models#

To change your AI model:

  1. Open the Dashboard and navigate to Settings
  2. Click Change model under the AI Model section
  3. Browse models grouped by provider — each model shows badges like Latest, Fast, Cheap, or Free to help you compare
  4. Select your model and click Save & Rebuild

The rebuild takes 2-4 minutes. Your chat history and memories are preserved — only the VM is recreated with the new model configuration.

💡

Starter plan restrictions

The Starter plan ($29/mo) does not include access to Claude Opus 4.6, GPT-5, GPT-5.2, or Gemini 2.5 Pro. Upgrade to Pro ($59/mo) or higher to use all models.

Self-Hosted Models (Ollama)#

Ollama models run directly on your agent's VM — no external API key required. This means zero per-message cost and complete data privacy. The trade-off is that inference speed depends on your server tier's hardware. Performance or Enterprise plans are recommended for self-hosted models.

Bring Your Own API Key#

You can provide your own API key for any supported provider — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, Alibaba Cloud (Qwen), Mistral, Groq (Llama), xAI (Grok), or Moonshot. When configured, your agent will use your key instead of the Lobstack default. This gives you full control over billing and rate limits. The Settings panel automatically detects your model's provider and shows the correct key format.

To add your API key:

  1. Go to Settings in your dashboard
  2. Click Add API Key
  3. Paste your key and click Save & Rebuild

Key security

Your API key is sent securely to your VM and stored in the agent config on your server. It is never stored in the Lobstack database in plain text. You can clear or change it at any time.

Message Overage Pricing#

If you exceed your plan's monthly message limit, overage charges apply per message based on the model:

Model Routing#

Lobstack automatically routes your selected model to the correct provider API. When using the OpenClaw gateway, models are mapped to provider-prefixed identifiers (e.g., anthropic/claude-opus-4-6). This happens transparently — you just select the model name in your dashboard.
