About
OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI assistant you run on your own machine. It listens on chat apps you already use (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, iMessage and 45+ more), acts via a local-first gateway with browser control, persistent memory, and multi-model backing (Claude, GPT, local models). MIT-licensed with native MCP support.
Best for: Indie hackers and privacy-conscious founders who want a personal AI assistant that runs locally on their own machine and integrates with WhatsApp / Telegram / Discord without cloud lock-in or per-seat fees.
