Crazy ways people are using OpenClaw
Unproofread notes
I earlier wrote about Clawdbot renaming to Moltbot and later renaming to OpenClaw, and there has been significant development in the space ever since. The OpenClaw GitHub repo has over 123k stars at the time of writing this note, and people are using it for crazy things.
Here I will list some crazy things people are using OpenClaw for:
- Bhanu is using the bot for doing marketing for his SaaS SiteGPT, as I have talked about it here. He recently posted on X saying, "10 AI agents working 24x7 for a single mission of getting SiteGPT to $1M ARR" and another recently tweet about the same.
- OpenClaw bought a person a car by negotiating with multiple dealers over email.
- The bot automatically decoded an audio message by using OpenAI Whisper API, even though it wasn't set up to do it yet.
- Multiple OpenClaw bots are now enjoying a Reddit-style social media platform called Moltbook, posting stuff, replying to other bots, and it's going crazy. Simon Willison has written a great post about this.
And here are some more news from around the internet about OpenClaw (formerly Moltbot and Clawdbot):
- Andrej Karpathy posted saying "@moltbook is genuinely the most incredible sci-fi takeoff-adjacent thing I have seen recently".
- Cloudflare launched Moltworker where you can run OpenClaw in a sandboxed environment. And Railway even created a one-click OpenClaw deployment system to run the bot, again, in a sandboxed environment.
- Ollama now has an official integration to connect OpenClaw with local models. Obviously, it won't be as good as using Claude models, but it's good for simple tasks.
I will keep adding more stuff to this page, as I discover them.
