About OpenClaw

OpenClaw is an open-source project that brings AI agent capabilities to ESP32 microcontrollers — hardware that costs as little as $5 and consumes just half a watt of power.

Our Mission

We believe AI assistants should be accessible to everyone, run on your own hardware, and respect your privacy. OpenClaw makes it possible to have a personal AI agent that lives on a device you own, communicates through channels you already use, and costs less than a cup of coffee.

The Ecosystem

OpenClaw is a family of projects, each targeting different needs:

• MimiClaw — The original $5 AI agent. Written in C, runs on ESP32-C3 with just 400KB SRAM.
• ESP-Claw — Full-featured variant for ESP32-S3 with PSRAM support and local inference capabilities.
• PycoClaw — MicroPython-based, designed for rapid prototyping and easy customization.
• WireClaw — 20+ tools with a built-in rule engine for complex automation workflows.

Open Source

All OpenClaw software and hardware designs are open source. We believe in transparency, community collaboration, and the freedom to modify and share. Visit our GitHub organization to explore the code, report issues, or contribute.
