⚡ Core Features

Why To Choose OpenClaw AI

An AI automation platform designed for developers who value privacy, flexibility, and getting things done.

All Your Messaging Apps, One Brain

WhatsApp message needs a reply? Telegram notification waiting? Discord ping? One intelligent agent handles them all. Unified conversations, zero context switching.

It Acts Before You Ask

Most AI waits for commands. This one anticipates needs. Get morning briefings, flight delay alerts, price drop notifications, and smart reminders — automatically.

Remembers Everything You Tell It

No more repeating context. It learns your preferences, remembers ongoing projects, and gets smarter with every conversation. Like an assistant who actually pays attention.

Your Server, Your Rules

Every conversation, API key, and personal detail stays on your hardware. No cloud middleman. No data harvesting. No monthly subscription traps.

Actually Gets Things Done

Beyond chatting — this agent executes. Send emails, book restaurants, adjust your thermostat, organize files, scrape websites, and connect with 100+ services.

Transparent Code, Endless Possibilities

MIT licensed. Every line visible. No black boxes. Customize anything, contribute back, or build entirely new capabilities. Backed by 500+ active contributors.

Industry Insight

AI Vision

"A smart model with eyes and hands at a desk with keyboard and mouse. You message it like a coworker and it does everything a person could do at a computer."

Hardware

"Mac Mini sold out globally — because of OpenClaw! Explains why Mac Mini is perfect for it (unified memory, local LLMs) and the power of local processing: privacy, no latency, no monthly fees."

Mind-blowing

"Creator @steipete describes an amazing moment: it responded to a voice memo even though voice wasn't set up. It used FFmpeg to convert and Whisper to transcribe — all on its own."

Agent Creation

"OpenClaw is insane. I created an agent that scans Minneapolis live streams. If it hears a foreign language, it immediately calls ICE to the exact coordinates."
