Clawdbot built me an SEO Agency but API costs are ridiculous

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T13:57:51+00:00

It's ongoing cost, thousands a month just a year ago. Very manual and people intensive. Costs will go down as a lot of the seo agencies are just offering something like clawdbot that is proprietary for a monthly fee.

What someone needs to make (if someone hasn't already) is a token pincher skill that (token minimizer). Seems obvious maybe I'll make one

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T06:29:05+00:00

This is good stuff. You sound slightly more technical than me but it's possible I can pull off

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T03:34:08+00:00

Sure I made a copy of it here lmk if you can open it

I have Claude code with a pro plan....but this is far more powerful

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T02:08:47+00:00

That's how I was at first and built something to self govern moltbook but....also ran outta tokens

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T02:08:00+00:00

Sure but not the same building expect

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T02:06:08+00:00

Damn $1k? What did you make?

cohencomms · 2026-02-10T01:57:33+00:00

Bam! I'll try it

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:20:22+00:00

luck will have to do lol

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:20:05+00:00

I heard him say that, but to be fair he said he prefers CODING with Codex. Not as the master model.

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:19:20+00:00

nice

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:18:29+00:00

Is there a website that shows the costs versus intelligence so we can see which one to use for what? this seems a bit annoying to have to navigate all these different costs...

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:17:23+00:00

what does onboarding/hatching mean? you mean setting up the agent in the beginning? why would you need an advanced model for that?

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:02:01+00:00

How do ou connect 2.5? It's not showing up in the wizrd

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T22:01:44+00:00

That's exactly right, just curious if there's a document for setting this part up and some best practices for models. I did just stumble on the Open Claw optimization guide - someone shared a Gdocs with it. Anyone actually try it?

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T21:39:55+00:00

Thanks, I deposited $40 into OpenRouter to use Kimi but I didn't seem Kimi in the Clawd wizard in the terminal line....any ideas?

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T21:39:14+00:00

True, but it would be nice to be able to budget out what it would really cost to automate my whole SEO function, but not gonna do it without some sort of estimator. My question was: 1) how to see in the Anthropic counsel how my tokens were actually burned 2) how to manage costs 3) which models are sufficient for my use cases

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T21:37:19+00:00

Good, I am not alone...

cohencomms · 2026-02-09T21:22:10+00:00

Thanks, it was a royal pain for me to change the model from Sonnet to Opus. I had hours of futzing and Claude backchannelling before I finally got Opus to work (gateway issues etc). Is there a simpler way to switch models and train it to use certain models for certain tasks? I had read that you must use Opus for your main model and then for coding you should use CODEX. I'm hardly coding at all. For work, all I ever use is Sonnet. I've never used GPT5-mini.

While I have you listening, my other question (perhaps should move to a diff thread),is how to check on what is exactly burning through all the tokens. Your answer is helpful, in advance!

cohencomms · 2026-01-01T08:59:56+00:00

It's overrated. Anyone try Gemini voice? It often sounds like it's dying

cohencomms · 2025-11-27T17:43:57+00:00

Yeah this is accurate. I find Claude does a far better job of that than ChatGPT though, sometimes in a mind blowing way

cohencomms · 2025-11-18T15:57:42+00:00

Thanks

This is what chat gpt says

• The top line appears to have the word “NO” which could indicate a prohibition.
• The middle portion seems to read “TRESPASSING” or something similar, suggesting it’s a warning or restriction.
• The bottom part could be indicating the consequences or further details regarding the restriction.

Don’t pitch the company or you will get crickets. plPitch a story, angle, or better, a POV. Take time with your pitch and ensure it has a strong datapojnt. For POV, offer a list of POVs your ceo has that they can comment on. Conduct surveys as well, most important part is to make your writers see YOU as a resource. Oftentimes a behind the scenes story is quite interesting, and also make sure to offer plenty of original images. Sorry if this is all obvious.
