OpenClaw 2.0

OpenClaw is an open-source personal AI assistant created by Peter Steinberger (@steipete). It runs locally on the user's machine (macOS, Linux and Windows) and is driven through chat apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram or Discord. It handles tasks like inbox, email, calendar and flight management, and keeps persistent memory, skills and context on the user's own computer.\n\nThe agent works as a harness around external language models. According to the site's user quotes, it can use subscriptions such as ChatGPT sign-in, and users report running it with Claude, GPT-5.5 or Copilot-backed endpoints. Reported capabilities include cron jobs, reminders, background tasks, heartbeats, persona onboarding, voice integration and managing Claude Code or Codex sessions. Windows support via Microsoft execution containers was announced at Microsoft Build.\n\nInstallation is via apps or a one-line installer that sets up Node.js, with stable and dev update channels. The 2.0 release is described by users as an overhaul; one YouTube creator said he had not tried it. Note that a separate YouTube snippet describing an image-to-3D tool refers to Tripo and appears to be unrelated to OpenClaw. Details of 2.0 specifics, pricing and license were not in the provided material; the software itself is described as free and open source, while model usage costs depend on the provider chosen.
