Moltbot is an open-source, autonomous personal AI assistant (often referred to as ‘Clawdbot’) that lives on your own infrastructure (local computer or server) rather than in a walled garden cloud. It functions as a digital employee with ‘hands’ and ‘eyes’ on its own dedicated machine, capable of executing complex tasks like clearing inboxes, managing calendars, flight check-ins, and coding. Users interact with it through everyday messaging apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Discord, making it feel like a proactive, 24/7 coworker.
Use Cases
Autonomous Inbox & Communication Management
Clears your inbox, sends follow-up emails, and unsubscribes from unwanted newsletters while you’re away.
Proactive Scheduling & Logistics
Manages your calendar, sets reminders for personal events, and automatically checks you in for upcoming flights.
Vibe Coding & Web Development
Build and deploy websites from your phone by chatting with the bot, which can autonomously run tests and open PRs.
Second Brain & Context Management
Acts as a persistent memory layer that spans across different AI tools like Cursor, Codex, and Manus, remembering context 24/7.
Custom Skill Creation
Users can teach the bot new skills (like querying flight APIs or checking Whoop metrics) simply by asking it to build the necessary integration.
Features & Benefits
Local & On-Premise Hosting
Everything runs on your own hardware (Mac mini, Raspberry Pi, etc.), ensuring data privacy and total user control.
Omnichannel Chat Interface
Accessible through WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, and iMessage, allowing you to trigger complex desktop workflows from your phone.
Agentic Proactivity
Features ‘heartbeats’ and cron jobs that allow the bot to reach out to you or perform background tasks without being prompted.
Self-Hackable Architecture
An open-source, extensible framework where the AI can modify its own code and add its own plugins based on your needs.
Multi-Model & Proxy Support
Can be configured to route through various LLM providers (Claude, OpenAI) or use proxies to utilize existing subscriptions like GitHub Copilot.
