What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent that runs on your own hardware, connects to your tools, and works autonomously. You chat with it through Telegram, WhatsApp, or iMessage — and it takes real actions on your behalf.

It is not a chatbot. It is a digital employee with persistent memory, tool access, and the ability to run scheduled tasks, monitor your inbox, browse the web, write and execute code, and coordinate across your business systems.

Unlike ChatGPT or Claude, it runs 24/7 on your own infrastructure. Your data stays private. It acts without being prompted.

Acts, doesn't just answer
Browses, clicks, writes emails, books appointments, runs scripts — real actions on your behalf.
Always running
Monitors your inbox, checks prices, runs reports, and sends alerts while you're asleep.
Your data stays private
Runs on your own hardware or private server. Nothing passes through a third-party AI company.
Talk to it anywhere
Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, Signal — chat on whatever platform you already use.
50+ integrations
Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Notion, Shopify, Xero, HubSpot, GitHub, and more.
Multi-agent capability
Run specialist agents for sales, ops, and research — coordinated by a lead agent you control.

What's Included

Every OpenClaw setup from 13Labs includes everything you need to be running — not just installed.

OpenClaw installation on Mac Mini or private VPS
WhatsApp or Telegram connection and testing
Security hardening (isolated accounts, tokens, port configuration)
Core tool integrations (email, calendar, storage, webhooks)
Custom workflow setup based on your discovery call
Health monitoring and logging configuration

Hardware Options

We recommend one of two approaches depending on your budget and needs.

Mac Mini (Recommended)
From $1,299 — one-time cost
Dedicated hardware sitting at your desk or office. Best for macOS integrations (iMessage, AirDrop, Apple apps). Your agent is always on, always local. The standard choice for serious business use.
VPS (Budget Option)
~$20-40/month ongoing
A private cloud server from Hostinger or Railway. Cheaper to start, no hardware to manage. One-click OpenClaw deployment. Good for remote teams or those not needing macOS integrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent that runs on your own hardware or private server, connects to your tools, and works autonomously on your behalf. You chat with it through Telegram, WhatsApp, or iMessage. Unlike ChatGPT, it runs 24/7, takes actions rather than just answering questions, and your data never leaves your infrastructure.

How is OpenClaw different from ChatGPT or Claude?

ChatGPT and Claude are reactive — you ask, they answer. OpenClaw is proactive and autonomous. It monitors your email, runs scheduled tasks, takes actions in your tools, and operates around the clock without you needing to initiate each interaction. It's a digital employee, not a chat interface.

What hardware do I need?

The most popular option is a dedicated Mac Mini (M4, from $1,299 at the Apple Store), which gives you a permanent home for the agent and native macOS integrations. The more affordable alternative is a Virtual Private Server (VPS) for roughly $20-40/month — we recommend Hostinger or Railway, both of which have one-click OpenClaw deployment. We handle the setup either way.

Is my data safe?

Yes — this is one of OpenClaw's biggest advantages over cloud AI tools. Your agent runs on your own infrastructure. Your emails, documents, and business data never pass through a third-party AI company's servers. We also configure security hardening as part of every installation: isolated accounts, authentication tokens, closed ports, and monitoring.

What tools and apps can OpenClaw connect to?

OpenClaw integrates with Gmail, Google Calendar, Outlook, Slack, Notion, Google Drive, Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, HubSpot, Salesforce, GitHub, Xero, Shopify, and 50+ more via webhooks and custom integrations. We map your specific tool stack during the discovery call and build the connections you actually need.

Which AI model does it use?

OpenClaw works with any AI model via API. We recommend Claude Opus 4.6 (Anthropic) for the best balance of capability and reliability. Kimi K2.5 is currently free and works well for many use cases. We configure the model that makes sense for your usage and budget.

How long does setup take?

Most installations are complete in 2-3 days. Simple single-channel setups (WhatsApp or Telegram with email integration) can be done in one day. Complex multi-integration setups with custom workflows take 4-5 days. We confirm the timeline in your setup plan.

Do you offer ongoing support?

Yes. We offer optional ongoing support covering monitoring, updates, new workflow additions, and priority troubleshooting. All support is handled by our Melbourne team — no offshore ticketing systems.
