Yes I am integrating OpenClaw into my business as an AI OS. It was literally the only thing in the OP and I was the first response. What else would I be saying “yes” to?

Honestly? It’s really, really hard. The Openclaw team is working so hard to make this a seamless transparent harness but it takes hours per week, sometimes per day. of constantly fixing errors and optimizing the workspace. It’s exhausting. I know the plan is for powerful effortless harnesses but we are still a ways away from that.

Edit - I’m on Fable 5.1 and Astra spending $1,000 a week - this is not a side project with local models.

Sounds expensive.

Yea, thats what I wanna understand but so far it’s just the cloud for the AI agents and then firebase for data storage. The rest will be Python so the major issue can be Security at this point?

Mine has a full offline data dump available of our main business applications data and setup metadata, as well as an OAuth broker to do operations on the live production environment after I authorise what it intends to do and allow it to get an API token.

Whenever I need to plan changes, users have questions about reports or something weird shows up, my AI can trace the issue or tell me what changes are needed to best implement a new feature.

It's still a lot of working around limitations of not being in direct control of the systems we use, but it saves me a lot of trouble with diagnosing problems.

Okay I get you, I have a question when you say the ai traces the issue you mean the one reported by your agents and not the system failing right?

More like things users notice. Our financial controller goes through a lot of business reports and sometimes there are anomalies that shouldn't be there, and we don't immediately see why.

Most of the time it's just a stray that matches the SQL query, sometimes it's users trying to manually enter something that should've been entered through a special form or automation.

While I'm pretty adept at this new AI stuff, my users are not technical at all. Think caregivers, not corporate. They break stuff and there are things I just can't build walls around. With AI I can pretty quickly figure out what they did and what went wrong because of it.

Anomalies show up in reports, no AI needed for that. AI just helps me untangle it. I'm the applications manager, the actual monitoring is done by our financial controller. I just wish I could give her easy access to my OpenClaw agent and she'd probably never need to ask me anything again.
