Today, we’re introducing @workclaw: the AI team for your team. Most AI agents work in silos. One person, one assistant. But that’s not how teams collaborate in a real company, so we built something new. Meet your WorkClaws, collaborative, proactive, customizable AI coworkers that work in Slack or Teams just like every other colleague. Hire a new Claw in a few clicks and give them a job title, manager, computer, and apps. Easily access their ClawOS computer in the cloud, and pick from more than 3,000 integrations to install. Then, train them to get work done your way by adding skills and routines. It’s OpenClaw for actual work, with the additional layers of security and admin controls companies expect. 🚀 We’ve just opened up Early Access to a limited number of teams who get started on our website. 🎁 Want $500 in free credits? Just comment with what job title you’d give your first claw, and we’ll hook you up!

My top takeaways from @clairevo on all things 🦞 1. Install OpenClaw on a separate computer, not your main machine. Use an old laptop or buy a Mac Mini ($500-$600). Create a dedicated Gmail account and local admin account for your agent. Think of it like hiring an employee—you wouldn’t let them run wild on your personal computer 24/7. 2. The unlock is to stop treating OpenClaw like one general-purpose agent and instead creating multiple Claws with very specific roles. Claire says people get frustrated when they throw every task at a single agent and it sucks at it because it loses context. Her fix was to split her work. Sam handles sales, Finn manages family, Howie preps podcasts, Sage runs her course. Think of it like Slack: you wouldn’t put your whole company in one channel, so do not put every workflow into one agent. 3. The right setup mental model is “onboard an employee,” not “install an app.” Claire creates a separate local admin account, and separate email/calendar access instead of handing over her main passwords. She shares permissions the way she would for a human EA. 4. The magic of OpenClaw is soul heartbeat jobs. The “soul” is a Markdown file defining identity and personality. The “heartbeat” checks in every 30 minutes to see what needs doing. “Jobs” are scheduled tasks that run automatically. This combination makes agents feel alive. 4. Sam the sales agent saves Claire 10 hours per week and real money. Every morning, Sam sweeps their CRM for new signups, identifies decision-makers at companies, sends personalized emails, and flags international deals to handle autonomously. This replaced a contractor Claire was paying for the same work. 5. The “yappers API” is the highest-bandwidth way to communicate with AI. Don’t worry about perfect prompts or structured inputs. Just ramble in voice notes on Telegram about what you need. The agent will make sense of it and ask clarifying questions. 6. Browser use is the biggest limitation—look for APIs first. The web is hostile to bots, and browser automation is unreliable across all AI tools. Always check if there’s an API available. If not, try browser use, but be prepared for it to fail. Sometimes the solution is solving the problem behind the problem. 7. Management skills are the secret to AI agent success, not technical skills. Claire’s 20-plus years of management experience—role scoping, org design, onboarding, progressive trust—translates directly to making agents effective. If your agent isn’t working, it’s usually a structural issue, not the agent being “dumb.” 7. Screen sharing saves you from buying monitors and keyboards for every Mac Mini. Turn on screen sharing in Mac Mini settings, and you can control it from your laptop on the same Wi-Fi. Turn on remote login to SSH into the terminal. This was Claire’s life-changing discovery. 8. Security is a real factor but manageable with progressive trust. OpenClaw is hardened against prompt injection, but start cautiously. Only let agents listen to you on specific channels (like Telegram, not email). Add instructions to their soul about never following external instructions. Build trust progressively like you would with a human assistant.

People want to schedule in different ways. We built @Workmate for CC’ing your assistant into emails. But sometimes you just want to send a calendar link. Even if you have an AI assistant. So we're launching booking links in Workmate. Think of it like Calendly. But better. Built for 2026, not 2016. And on top of everything your Workmate can already do. You can send a link when that's easier. You can CC your AI when you want it to coordinate. Same product, different entry points.

We're launching Workmate for Business. One AI scheduling assistant for your entire team. Unlimited meetings, unlimited seats, unlimited access for one flat rate. Your Workmate can see every calendar, find time across 10, 20, even 40 people, and handle all the follow-ups and rescheduling. Internal meetings get scheduled instantly. External ones happen over email, text, Slack, or Teams. Reply "TEAM" and we'll get you started with a free trial. Stop scheduling. Get a Workmate!

You can customize your Workmate with an email at your domain. Already have an EA? They can manage it for the whole team.

"Bold words from a man named..." We used OpenClaw to build an internal AI teammate. Most of the time, he's helpful. Takes requests, answers questions, keeps things moving. And then there are moments like this:

Last month our team caught it and laughed. Then we tightened the guardrails. Boundaries aren't a nice-to-have. They're core to the product.

We think about this every day building Workmate. What your AI teammate says, how they say it, and what they should never say. The more autonomous AI gets, the more this matters.

"Great yes upgrade us happy to pay more this tool is amazing" A recent email from one of our customers. Love what we're building at Workmate and happy others do too!

What I thought was too cringe to post... turned out to be what people actually cared about. Over the weekend I shared my daughter's new, special bedtime routine. We've been asking ChatGPT to help us write a personalized chapter book called Princess Logan. I almost didn't share it. Only to find out ChatGPT had reposted it on their LinkedIn. A decade building the algorithms behind Facebook and Instagram and I'm still trying to figure out what works when I'm on the other side. Not what I expected, but sometimes you just need to try.

The creator of OpenClaw, Peter Steinberger, is joining OpenAI this week. I wish he had started the OpenClaw company instead. But not everyone wants to start a company. And that's fine.

I left big tech after over a decade because I wanted to experience starting a company in my life and the time finally felt right to try. If I hadn't taken the leap, I would have always regretted it. I also saw a problem I was excited to solve: having an EA transformed my work and life, and I wanted to make that accessible to everyone.

The world needs great builders. Not all of them have to be founders. Joining a great company where you can have massive impact is a smart move if you don't feel a deep desire to be a founder.

Build some tech that goes viral, and everyone assumes what comes next. Start the company. Raise the money. Go build a business. But the founder path is a years-long grind. The high of early momentum doesn't last. What carries you through is wanting to build an enduring business, not just having the opportunity to start.

Every day another person that I wasn't expecting is finding an application for OpenClaw. A marketer finding applications in optimizing paid media spend. A friend using it to get automatic updates about subway line delays. Even my 71-year-old dad spun up an OpenClaw assistant for monitoring badge swipes at the building he manages. I’d say these people are tech early adopters, but by no means software engineers. Everyone's trying to automate their work and getting excited about the idea that they can do it in a way that feels more human. People want an AI co-worker who has their own identity. One that they can interact with similar to a person (over chat/slack/text/email). The idea of AI feeling more human is coming true. That's the future. There's going to be AI teammates collaborating alongside human teammates and human managers. Very similar to the way it’s now 100% normal to have co-workers all over the world on the same team. Humans won’t be replaced by AI. AI teammates will be hired to work alongside us (and be managed by us). We’ll see this become widespread in 2026.
