1. What is OpenClaw

OpenClaw is a self-hosted gateway that connects your favorite chat apps and channel surfaces — built-in channels plus bundled or external channel plugins such as Discord, Google Chat, iMessage, Matrix, Microsoft Teams, Signal, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Zalo, and more — to AI coding agents. You run a single Gateway process on your own machine (or a server), and it becomes the bridge between your messaging apps and an always-available AI assistant.

2. Core Features
Multi-channel Support: A single Gateway can connect to multiple chat channels simultaneously
Session Management: Creates independent sessions for each sender, maintaining coherent context
Agent-native: Specifically designed for coding agents, supporting tool usage, sessions, memory, and multi-agent routing
Self-hosted: Runs on local hardware, with full control over your data
