Hi Product Hunt!
Most AI assistants are trapped in a browser tab. They can generate text, but they can't do anything. I found Clawbot really interesting - it is gonna change that.
Clawbot is a self-hosted agent that lives on your machine (Mac, Windows, or Linux). It bridges the gap between LLM intelligence and your operating system's capabilities.
What makes it different?
- 🏠 Local & Private: Your data stays on your machine.
- 📱 Chat Anywhere: It texts you back on WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, or Slack.
- ⚡ Real Action: It doesn't just talk. It can open browsers, fill forms, run terminal commands, and edit files.
- 🧠 Memory: It remembers you. No more starting from scratch every session.
It's fully hackable and open to plugins. I'd love to see what skills you build for it.
Maybe AI moves on to next stage.
