Imagine an AI that doesn't just talk, but does. It checks your emails, monitors your competitors, and optimizes your website while you sleep. That's OpenClaw.
What is OpenClaw (MoltBot)?
OpenClaw, also known as MoltBot in the developer community, is a "Chip" or pre-configured AI agent. Unlike ChatGPT which waits for your input, OpenClaw lives on a cloud server and runs continuously. It has memory, can browse the web, and integrates with your favorite messaging apps like Telegram and WhatsApp.
