OpenClaw
Open-source AI agent orchestration
Build agents that work with 20+ providers, route intelligently, and never fail.
Why OpenClaw?
The Problem
- Each AI provider has different APIs
- Switching providers means rewriting code
- API outages break your app
- No standard way to build agents
- LangChain is complex and heavy
The Solution
- One API for 20+ providers
- Switch providers in 1 line
- Automatic fallbacks on failure
- Skills system for reusable agents
- Lightweight, TypeScript-first
