What is Clawi?

Clawi is a personal AI assistant that lives in the cloud and proactively manages your life across messaging platforms. It runs on OpenClaw, an open-source engine that gives the assistant its own Linux environment with persistent storage, shell access, and the ability to install and run software. Instead of wrestling with servers or complex setups, Clawi delivers a fully private, self-improving AI agent that messages you, does research, and handles tasks on WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, or iMessage.

Who it's for

• Busy professionals who need a 24/7 digital teammate to handle research, code reviews, project management, and content pipelines without manual oversight
• Small teams and startups that want to share AI agents across their organization, with each agent getting its own inbox for forwarding newsletters, receiving notifications, or signing up for services
• Privacy-conscious power users who want full visibility into their assistant's brain — monitoring token usage, managing active contexts, and configuring model parameters in real-time — without their conversations being logged

Key features

Pre-installed OpenClaw environment

Every Clawi agent comes with a full Linux environment and persistent storage right out of the box. You can install packages, run services, and access files and scripts that stay on disk between sessions — just like your own machine. Zero setup means you sign up, connect your messenger, and you're done.

Multi-platform messaging

Your assistant lives wherever you already communicate. Clawi works on WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal, and iMessage, so you never need to switch apps or learn a new interface. Just message your agent like a coworker, and it handles everything from design and code review to taxes and content pipelines.

Persistent memory and context

Clawi remembers your preferences, past conversations, and context instantly. It can build upon itself by simply talking to it in a chat — users report that the assistant keeps improving autonomously, running tests, capturing errors through webhooks, and even opening pull requests to resolve issues.

Team sharing and agent inboxes

Create a team, invite coworkers, and share agents across your organization. Every agent automatically gets its own inbox, so you can forward newsletters, sign up for services, or receive notifications without any manual setup. Everyone stays on the same page.

What stands out

"A smart model with eyes and hands at a desk with keyboard and mouse. You message it like a coworker and it does everything a person could do with that Mac mini."

This captures the essence of Clawi: it's not just a chatbot, but a proactive digital employee with its own computer, persistent memory, and the ability to act autonomously. Users describe it as a "fundamental shift" — the same kind of leap forward they felt when ChatGPT first launched. The assistant runs 24/7, can be cloned into multiple agents, and integrates with your files, Gmail, calendar, and everything about you.
