OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot/Moltbot) is an open-source, self-hosted autonomous AI assistant designed to run on user-controlled hardware and bridge conversational natural language with real-world task execution, effectively acting as a proactive digital assistant rather than a reactive chatbot. It lets you send instructions through familiar messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, iMessage, and more, and then interprets those instructions to carry out actions such as managing calendars, sending emails or messages, browsing the web, executing system commands, and coordinating workflows across services — all while maintaining long-term memory and context across sessions. Because it runs locally or on infrastructure you choose (like a personal computer, VPS, or Raspberry Pi), OpenClaw emphasizes data ownership, privacy, and full transparency into how your instructions are handled and what actions are taken, giving users autonomy over their AI workflows.

OpenClaw is the future of AI. Holy cow this is the holy grail of AI agents and agentic orchestration. Running OpenClaw on a Mac Mini and a separate instance on a VPS and it does so much for me.
