OpenClaw on WhatsApp — your AI assistant where you already chat

OpenClaw is "the AI that actually does things." To do things, it needs to be where you are. WhatsApp is where everyone is.

• Always open — Push notifications, no separate app to launch.
• Voice messages — Send a voice memo, OpenClaw transcribes + acts.
• Images / docs — Forward a receipt, an invoice, a screenshot — OpenClaw OCRs and processes.
• Group chats — Add OpenClaw to family/team groups. Mention @theclawd for ad-hoc help.
• Status replies — React to your status with prompts, get insights privately.

Most DIY OpenClaw + WhatsApp setups die at QR code expiry. Sessions drop, multi-device limits hit, you re-pair daily.

The Clawd uses Baileys multi-session with managed session persistence:

• Pair once via QR scan in our dashboard
• Session stays alive across our managed restarts
• Multi-device support (phone offline? still works)
• Auto-reconnect if WhatsApp pushes you out
• Session encrypted at rest, isolated per workspace

Setup time: 30 seconds. Lifetime maintenance: zero.

• Inbox-zero on the go — "Summarize new emails since 9am, draft replies" → done in 6 seconds.
• Customer support — Add OpenClaw to your business WhatsApp number. It triages, refunds, tracks orders.
• Family ops — "Order DoorDash to Sarah's school" → handled in 8 seconds while you're in a meeting.
• Calendar concierge — "Push my 3pm to 4pm and apologize to attendees" → done.
• Document Q&A — Forward a 40-page contract → ask "what's the termination clause?" → answer in seconds.
• Voice-first life — Talk to OpenClaw on WhatsApp via voice memos. Reply in voice if you want.

The Clawd works with both:

• WhatsApp Personal — Pair your existing number. Best for solo founders, prosumers, family use. Per WhatsApp ToS, treat as personal automation, not bulk messaging.
• WhatsApp Business — Use a separate Business number. Get auto-replies, away messages, catalog. Best for stores, agencies, e-commerce.
• WhatsApp Cloud API — For high-volume use. We can wire your Meta-approved number directly.

Pick the one that matches your scale. The Clawd handles the wiring.
