OpenClaw
An open-source personal agent on your computer, working through chat apps, email, calendar and files.
What it is
OpenClaw is a free, open-source agent (MIT license). It runs on your computer and talks to you through WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Signal or iMessage. It can handle email, calendar and files, remembers context between sessions and can be extended with skills. The program itself is free, but you connect your own model (Claude, GPT or a local one) and pay for that separately. The agent gets access to your files and services, so start with the minimum permissions.
