The open-source AI agent, once known as Moltbot (and Clawdbot before that), has been christened OpenClaw. Owing to its creation by developer Peter Stienberger, OpenClaw has garnered the attention of curious onlookers and avid users, who’ve gone on to prompt the AI tool to complete everyday tasks and exhibit human-like behavior.
OpenClaw goes beyond just answering the questions you ask it — it can perform the tasks you command it to do, such as send emails, check you in for flights, manage your calendar invites, etc. And what’s even more surprising about its usage is that it’s compatible with messaging apps (such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Discord), works with separate large language models, and runs on local hardware (which might not be advisable since it can access any sensitive files you have on your desktop or laptop).
