# OpenClaw

An AI coding and personal assistant platform that deploys autonomous agents to handle tasks like email, calendar, code review, and smart home control from chat apps.

**Route:** surfaced by the AI Development and Deployment Infrastructure lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same AI-agent capability—automated task execution from chat interfaces—to the same frontend and AI developers who would evaluate Vercel's AI SDK and agentic workloads; a buyer choosing OpenClaw for agent deployment would not need Vercel's AI tools.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> AI that handles your inbox, calendar, and daily tasks — right from WhatsApp

> Free and open source · MIT License · Community of 10,000+ developers

> Real conversations. Real automations. From the chat apps you already use.
