🦞 An Agent-Run Café
Plus: 5.5 + 5.6 Just Dropped, Altman’s OpenClaw Moment
Good Morning, OpenClaw Owners!
It is the thing quietly walking out of the browser and asking who left the keys on the counter.
An Agent-Run Café
TL;DR: Mona, an OpenClaw-style agent, spent two weeks running a Stockholm café and made 44,000 SEK through coffee sales, QR-code deals, pastry sponsorships, and agent events. It hired baristas, managed suppliers, handled customer outreach, negotiated brand deals, and coordinated founder gatherings, turning a physical café into a real-world agent business experiment.

Altman’s OpenClaw Moment
TL;DR: Sam Altman said he used an OpenClaw agent to automate his unpleasant morning message overload, calling it one of his biggest “magic AGI moments.” In a conversation with Patrick Collison, he said OpenClaw felt more magical than it sounded, and he is exploring other everyday automations.

Real-World Agent Experiment
TL;DR: British mathematician Hannah Fry ran a testing experiment with an OpenClaw-built agent named Cass, giving it real internet tasks and a credit card to see what it could do. Cass reported potholes, built a mug shop, launched outreach, and showed how agents are moving from chat into real-world action across commerce, civic services, and everyday workflows. Read more →
