What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is an AI assistant that lives on a server in the cloud. It runs 24/7 — even when your phone or computer is off.

You talk to it through chat apps you already use — WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, or Slack. You send it a message, and it responds. That's it.

What can it do?

• Browse the web and summarize what it finds
• Manage your calendar and send reminders
• Control smart home devices
• Run code and automate tasks
• Answer questions about documents, images, and links
• Install new capabilities on the fly — just ask it to learn something new and it downloads the skill, like loading a program in The Matrix

There's nothing to install

We host everything for you. You don't need to download software, run a terminal, or know how to code. Your assistant runs on our servers and you access it through your existing chat apps.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a chatbot you talk to on OpenAI's website. OpenClaw is an assistant that runs on its own server and can actually do things — send messages, browse the web, control devices, and run code — all through your chat app of choice. It's always on and you can reach it from any device.
