What is Clawdbot?

Clawdbot is a personal AI assistant you run on your own devices. It answers you on the channels you already use (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Google Chat, Signal, iMessage, Microsoft Teams, WebChat), plus extension channels like BlueBubbles, Matrix, Zalo, and Zalo Personal. It can speak and listen on macOS/iOS/Android, and can render a live Canvas you control. The Gateway is just the control plane — the product is the assistant.

If you want a personal, single-user assistant that feels local, fast, and always-on, this is it.

How It Works

Clawdbot consists of two main components:

An LLM-powered agent that runs on your computer and can use many popular models such as Claude, Gemini, GPT, and local models.
A gateway that lets you talk to the agent using the messaging app of your choice, including iMessage, Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Signal, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, and others.

The agent runs entirely on your computer, locally, and keeps its settings, preferences, user memories, and other instructions as literal folders and Markdown documents on your machine. Think of it as the equivalent of Obsidian: while there is a cloud service behind it (for Obsidian, it's Sync; for Clawdbot, it's the LLM provider you choose), everything else runs locally, on-device, and can be directly controlled and infinitely tweaked by you.
