One person built it. Meta and OpenAI made billion-dollar bids. He kept it open source anyway.

I've been using OpenClaw since it was called Clawd. I have 4 digital employees running on it right now. It killed chatbots. It made files come alive. It deploys while you sleep.
The bids say it all. The agentic era isn't coming. It's here.
