title: OpenClaw
---
OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant that runs on your own devices. It bridges messaging services (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, iMessage, and more) to AI coding agents through a centralized gateway.
## Install
Install [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai/)
```bash
npm install -g openclaw@latest
```
Then run the onboarding wizard:
```bash
openclaw onboard --install-daemon
```
<Note>OpenClaw requires a larger context window. It is recommended to use a context window of at least 64k tokens. See [Context length](/context-length) for more information.</Note>
## Usage with Ollama
### Quick setup
```bash
ollama launch openclaw
```
<Note>Previously known as Clawdbot. `ollama launch clawdbot` still works as an alias.</Note>
This configures OpenClaw to use Ollama and starts the gateway.
If the gateway is already running, no changes need to be made as the gateway will auto-reload the changes.
To configure without launching:
```shell
ollama launch openclaw --config
```
