You need to understand one fact about OpenClaw
People are biased and incentivized to spread disinformation about OpenClaw. That is because OpenClaw IS NOT PUMPING ANYONE’S BAGS, unlike most other projects
Literally every other for-profit agent product is incentivized to trash OpenClaw, BECAUSE OpenClaw is a neutral third party across the industry and geopolitical scene. They MAKE MONEY when OpenClaw loses
OpenClaw does not worry about making money for some investors. Its founder @steipete is a successful exited founder. He is motivated by having fun and democratizing AI, literally. That is why he is suddenly so loved by everyone. He cares about PEOPLE, not MONEY
“OpenClaw is bloated”
-> Since beginning of March, OpenClaw is thinning its core and putting functionality in plugins behind a plugin SDK. Having numerous plugins to choose from does not mean bloat. This was already copied by others and is still a work in progress
“OpenClaw is not secure”
-> OpenClaw has the most eyeballs and immediately addresses any security advisories as soon as they come. It is the most secure agent, by sheer pressure
“OpenClaw is bought by OpenAI”
-> Then why is my bank account so empty bro??? All maintainers are literally unpaid and working DOUBLE beside their dayjobs to ship features to you. Do you think VC money can buy that kind of commitment?
Once you understand these facts, you’ll like OpenClaw even more. Because OpenClaw is your AI, People’s AI
And you can join us too. OpenClaw is the easiest-to-join project in AI right now. You just need to start using it, and start making good contributions. If you are competent, you can become a maintainer, and join the rest of the team making history!
OpenClaw — next level.
A physical AI lab run by 5 OpenClaw agents, coordinating Unitree robots + 20 robotic arms.
planning, execution, inspection, reporting — one integrated system.
~100M tokens per day.
Not demos.
Not chat.
This is what agent systems look like in the real world.
@OpenClaw
Thanks to everyone who joined — especially the speakers, demo teams, and our sponsors.
And great to have @irvinxyz visiting from SF and sharing the robotics perspective.
Great to see 400+ 🦞 builders & AI enthusiats show up.
What stood out most was the hallway energy — people installing OpenClaw, testing ideas, and exchanging use cases everywhere.
This is what a real builder community feels like.
OpenClaw Shanghai wrapped up this past weekend.
400+ developers, builders, and AI enthusiasts gathered at Shanghai Pudong Software Park.
Packed rooms, live demos, people installing OpenClaw together, and constant idea exchange across the room.
One moment from the stage:
OpenClaw HK → OpenClaw Asia.
More highlights coming soon.
Great meeting @irvinxyz and @livinoffwater in Shenzhen.
One of the most interesting ROSClaw insights: same robot, same command, same safety envelope — but different models can still produce very different physical behaviors, with up to 4.8x divergence in out-of-policy actions.
One of the best parts of this community is seeing frontier robotics work from San Francisco resonate so quickly with the OpenClaw builders in Asia.
I don’t think the US is ready for what’s happening in China
I flew to Shenzhen to speak about ROSClaw at an @openclaw meetup
500+ ppl capped
1000+ waitlist
That’s not a “meetup”
THAT IS CONFERENCE SIZE
Many call OpenClaw hype, but on the ground, it’s a full blown movement
