Chat with an AI assistant that runs on your own devices

Made by openclaw

OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI assistant that runs on your own computer and talks to you through the apps you already use — WhatsApp, iMessage, Discord, Telegram, Slack and twenty-plus others, with native apps for every platform.

Because it lives on your hardware, your conversation history, memory and passwords stay with you; the AI models underneath (Claude, Codex, or a local model) plug in like interchangeable parts. Setup is one install command on Mac, Windows or Linux, and a nonprofit foundation stewards the project with no paid tier. The project says it phones home for nothing but a daily version check, with anonymous statistics you can switch off.

Can I use this?

App on your computer, chats in your messaging apps

You'll need Your own Mac, Windows or Linux computer · Setup needed

Worth knowing You still supply and pay for the underlying AI model it talks to. An assistant with access to your chats and files is powerful — a misconfigured permission can do real damage, so review what you grant it. BuildTube has not run or verified this software.
