You Have a Claw. Now What?
We’re inviting a group of hand-picked subscribers to be the first to get their own OpenClaw, a personal agent hosted by Every.Apply to join a private session on Friday, March 6, at noon ET.
You’ve probably heard us talking about Claws —the personal AI assistants that live in your messaging apps and do things for you. Almost everyone at Every has one now, and they’ve changed how we work in ways we didn’t expect.
Claws are personal AI assistants built on OpenClaw. They live in messaging apps like WhatsApp or Telegram and remember everything you’ve told them, and when they can’t do something, they write the code to teach themselves how. You can use them to sort through 120 unread emails in seconds, or to send you a daily briefing with your calendar, weather, and to-dos in one message.
But many people run into the same problem when they first set up their Claw: What do you actually ask an always-on AI assistant to do? Where do you start?
We wrote a comprehensive guide that takes you from “I just got this thing” to building complex workflows that save you hours. The guide covers everything from basic to-do management to making your Claw automatically check you into flights.
Read the full guide Dan Shipper is the cofounder and CEO of Every, where he writes the Chain of Thought column and hosts the podcast AI & I. You can follow him on X at @danshipper and on _LinkedIn. _
The app for people who actually do what they said they’d do
You know that feeling when you leave a meeting and immediately forget half of what you agreed to? That’s not a memory problem. It’s a meetings problem. When you’re back-to-back all day, there’s no time to process. No time to write the follow-up. No time to turn “we should probably...” into something that actually happens.
Granola helps you become the person who actually does what they said they’d do. You take notes during the meeting : just quick bullets, nothing formal. Granola transcribes in the background and turns those notes into clear summaries with actual next steps. After the call, you can share your notes with the team so everyone’s aligned. Or chat with them to pull out exactly what you need to do next, without re-reading the whole thing. No more “wait, what did we decide?” moments. No more dropping the ball because you had three calls in a row and couldn’t keep track. Just clarity. And follow-through.
Download Granola and try it on your next meeting.
