Open-source AI agent that automates anything
OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot and Moltbot) is an open-source AI agent created by Peter Steinberger that has become the most-starred project on GitHub with over 344,000 stars. Unlike cloud-based agents, OpenClaw runs locally on your machine giving you full control over your data and privacy. It connects to any LLM backend (OpenAI, Claude, local models) and uses a modular skills system to extend its capabilities. The ClawHub marketplace hosts thousands of community-built skills for CRM integration, social media automation, data analysis, content creation, and more. OpenClaw supports messaging platforms including Signal, Telegram, Discord, and WhatsApp, making it a versatile personal AI assistant. Peter Steinberger joined OpenAI in February 2026, bringing OpenClaw's architecture insights to their agent development efforts.
