“OpenClaw is probably the single most important release of software, probably ever.” —Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO
Claire Vo has put together the definitive step-by-step guide to getting started with and mastering OpenClaw. Building on our podcast episode, this post covers everything you need from first install to running a full team of AI agents, plus the specific use cases that have changed her life. Whether you’re brand new to OpenClaw or already running one, Claire’s guide will level you up.
A big thank-you to Peter Steinberger, Dave Morin, and Nat Eliason for reviewing drafts of this post. For more from Claire, check out her podcast How I AI and ChatPRD, and find her on X and LinkedIn.
At 6 a.m., before I’ve looked at my phone, an AI agent named Polly has already read my email, checked my calendar, and queued up my day. By the time I sit down for coffee, another agent has reminded my husband about spirit day at school. A third AI is halfway through drafting a sales email, which will land in our prospect’s inbox three minutes after they contact us. One of the agents even helped draft this paragraph (though the rest was lovingly written by my human hands).
