The creator of OpenClaw used $1,300,000+ of OpenAI tokens in 30 days, which is a hell of a perk
Peter Steinberger, the developer behind OpenClaw, incurred over $1.3 million in OpenAI token costs within a single month. This significant expenditure was attributed to running a fleet of AI agents, with the majority of the cost stemming from GPT-5.5 usage and Codex instances. Steinberger noted that API costs could be reduced by 70% if used traditionally.
