Shared inbox triage and draft replies

OpenClaw reads a shared support or sales inbox on a schedule, classifies each new thread by intent, drafts a context-aware reply using remembered tone preferences, and posts a Telegram summary of what it handled versus what needs a human.

Routine enquiries get a fast, on-brand first response and the team only touches threads that actually need judgment.

Try it yourself

Message your bot: "Every hour, check the support inbox. Classify each thread, draft a reply for anything routine, save your drafts for my approval, and ping me for anything urgent."

Dashboards & analytics1

OpenClaw AI-native SME Founder Scientist

Course starter

API or metric threshold alert

OpenClaw polls an internal API or public endpoint on a schedule, evaluates a condition you define (error rate, response time, a numeric threshold), and fires an alert to Telegram or Slack the moment the condition is breached — along with the raw value and a short triage note.

You are notified the instant a KPI or system metric crosses a threshold, without running a monitoring stack or paying for an alerting service.

Try it yourself

Message your bot: "Every 15 minutes, hit [endpoint]. If the response time is over 2s or the status is not 200, ping me on Telegram with the value and a one-line triage note."

Booking & scheduling1

OpenClaw Small biz

Course starter

Booking confirmation and follow-up sequence

When a new booking appears in a shared calendar or CSV export, OpenClaw sends a confirmation message to the client via the channel of your choice, sets a reminder to follow up 24 hours after the appointment, and logs the outcome to a running tracker.

Every client is acknowledged and followed up on automatically — no booking falls through the cracks at busy periods.

Try it yourself

Message your bot: "Watch my bookings sheet for new rows. Send a confirmation to each client, then follow up the day after their appointment. Log confirmed, no-show, or rebooked to the tracker."

Internal tools & ops1

Course starter

Nightly backup with delivery confirmation

OpenClaw runs a shell backup script each night, verifies the archive size and checksum, rotates old backups, and sends a one-line Telegram confirmation — or an alert if anything failed.

Backup status is visible every morning with zero manual effort; failures surface immediately instead of on the day you need to restore.

Try it yourself

In Telegram: "Every night at 2am, run ~/scripts/backup.sh, check the output size is > 10MB, rotate archives older than 30 days, and ping me with pass/fail."

Content & marketing2

Course starter

Weekly content calendar from trend research

Every Friday OpenClaw browses trending topics in your niche, cross-references what you published recently, proposes five post ideas with hooks and channel fit, and drops the plan into your Telegram as a formatted list ready to approve or edit.

You start Monday with a full week planned instead of staring at a blank content calendar.

Try it yourself

In Telegram: "Every Friday at 4pm, research trending topics in [your niche], check what I posted this week, and propose 5 post ideas with a short hook each. Remember the ones I pick."

On-brand post drafts in your saved voice

You share a rough idea or bullet points in Telegram; OpenClaw retrieves your saved style notes from memory, drafts three post variants in your voice, and returns them for a quick pick-or-edit reply.

First drafts that already sound like you arrive in under a minute — no blank page, no brand-drift from a generic prompt.

Try it yourself

Send your bot a rough idea. It will pull your voice profile from memory and reply with three variants. Reply with the number you want to keep, and it saves the choice to refine future drafts.

Research & data tools3

Dataset endpoint watchdog

OpenClaw polls a public data API or FTP endpoint every few hours, compares checksums against the last known version, and fires a Telegram message the moment a new dataset release is detected.

You are the first to pull fresh data for your pipeline — no more daily manual checks or missed release windows.

Try it yourself

In Telegram, send: "Watch [endpoint URL] every 4 hours. When the file changes, download it to ~/data/latest/, run my preprocessing script, and ping me with the diff summary."

Daily research briefing to Telegram

Each morning OpenClaw searches preprint servers and curated RSS feeds for your saved keyword list, ranks results by relevance using your local model, and sends a digest to Telegram with one-line summaries and links.

A focused reading list lands before you open your laptop — no manual search, no information overload.

Try it yourself

Send to your OpenClaw bot on Telegram: "Every weekday at 7:30am, search arXiv and bioRxiv for my keyword list, pick the 5 most relevant, and message me a digest. Learn which ones I open."

On-demand topic research with cited summary

You send a question or topic to your Telegram bot; OpenClaw browses several sources, extracts relevant passages, synthesises a structured summary with inline citations, and returns the result in the same chat thread.

Deep-enough research on an unfamiliar topic arrives in minutes — sourced, readable, and ready to share or act on.

Try it yourself

Message your OpenClaw bot on Telegram: "Research [topic]. Browse at least 5 sources, write a 300-word summary with citations, and flag any conflicting findings."

Knowledge & docs1

Course starter

Internal knowledge Q&A over your docs

OpenClaw indexes your internal docs folder and remembers the index across sessions; team members ask procedural questions in a shared Slack channel and the bot replies with the relevant passage and file path.

Policy and process questions get a precise, document-grounded answer in seconds — reducing interruptions to senior staff and keeping remote teams unblocked.

Try it yourself

In Slack: "Index our docs at [path] and remember the structure. Whenever anyone in this channel asks a process question, answer from those docs and cite the file."

Trackers1

Course starter

Competitor site change monitor

OpenClaw visits a list of competitor pricing, product, or careers pages on a schedule, diffs the rendered text against the previous snapshot, and sends a Slack message summarising any meaningful changes.

You catch pricing moves, new feature announcements, or hiring signals within hours instead of stumbling on them weeks later.

Try it yourself

In Slack, message your OpenClaw bot: "Check [list of URLs] every Monday and Thursday morning. If any page changes, summarise what changed and post it here."
