Overview

Executive Summary

The Claw Concierge is a premium white-glove service that sets up, secures, and manages OpenClaw, the most powerful open-source personal AI assistant ever built, for individuals and businesses who want the capability of a true AI assistant without the complexity, risk, or time investment of doing it themselves.

OpenClaw connects to your WhatsApp, email, calendar, file system, phone calls, and more. It remembers everything, acts autonomously, and when set up properly, becomes the most valuable member of your team. When set up poorly, it becomes a security liability.

We close that gap. Every client receives a fully secured, deeply personalized AI assistant, delivered in a single session. No technical knowledge required. No risk. Just results.

The core insight: OpenClaw is extraordinarily powerful, and extraordinarily dangerous if misconfigured. 21,639 instances have been found exposed on the public internet with no authentication. We built the gold standard for safe, elite-tier deployment.
The Problem

OpenClaw Is Powerful. It's Also a Security Nightmare Without Expert Help.

OpenClaw gives an AI assistant access to your computer, files, email, calendar, messaging apps, and the ability to browse the web, write and execute code, manage your schedule, and contact people on your behalf. This is unprecedented personal AI capability.

It also means that a misconfigured OpenClaw installation is an open door into your entire digital life.

21,639 exposed instances
Found on the public internet with zero authentication. Complete system access, no password.
CrowdStrike threat advisory
Security researchers have published active exploitation warnings for misconfigured OpenClaw.
SentinelOne ClawSec report
Leading security firms have classified poorly configured OpenClaw as an enterprise-grade threat vector.
6+ hours to do it right
Security hardening alone, done correctly, takes a skilled professional 4-6 hours. Most users skip it entirely.

Beyond security, OpenClaw requires deep technical configuration to get the most out of it. SOUL.md personalization, memory system initialization, multi-channel setup, skill installation, and automation workflows each require expertise to do well. Most users spend days or weeks getting a fraction of the capability our clients get on day one.

The Solution

White-Glove Setup. Elite Security. Lifetime Results.

The Claw Concierge delivers a complete, secured, deeply personalized OpenClaw installation in a single session. We handle everything from infrastructure provisioning to security hardening to SOUL.md personalization to channel connections to skill installation and ongoing management.

Our clients don't touch a command line. They don't read documentation. They show up to a 30-minute onboarding call and leave with an AI assistant that knows who they are, sounds like them, and works for them around the clock.

The result: A fully operational, 12-point secured, SOUL.md personalized AI assistant, live and working within hours of your setup call. Personal clients are up in 2-3 hours. Business Pro clients in 4-6 hours. Enterprise in 1-2 weeks for full multi-agent architecture.
Foundation

What Is OpenClaw?

OpenClaw is an open-source AI assistant framework that runs on your own infrastructure: a cloud server, your personal machine, or a dedicated device. Unlike ChatGPT or Claude, which are cloud-based chatbots, OpenClaw is an autonomous agent that connects to your real tools and takes real actions.

๐Ÿง 
Persistent Memory
Remembers everything across every conversation, forever. Compounds like interest.
๐Ÿ“ฑ
Multi-Channel
WhatsApp, Telegram, email, SMS, voice. One AI across all your channels.
โšก
Autonomous Action
Sends emails, books meetings, updates CRMs, writes code, browses the web.
๐Ÿ‘ป
SOUL.md Identity
A personality file that makes your AI sound exactly like you. Not generic AI.
๐Ÿ”’
Your Infrastructure
Runs on your server. Your data never leaves your control.
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ
Extensible Skills
700+ community skills. Add any capability with a simple install command.

OpenClaw has 180,000+ GitHub stars and 1.5 million agents created. It is the fastest-growing open-source AI project of 2026. We are the elite deployment service for this technology, the white-glove layer that makes it safe, powerful, and personalized.

Security

The 12-Point Hardening Protocol

Our security protocol was designed using guidance from Microsoft, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and the OpenClaw security team's own published guidelines. Every client receives all 12 points, non-negotiable, regardless of tier.

1
Localhost-only gateway binding
The OpenClaw gateway is bound exclusively to 127.0.0.1, inaccessible from external networks.
2
64-character auth tokens
Cryptographically secure tokens replace default credentials. Rotated on a defined schedule.
3
Docker sandboxing
The OpenClaw process runs inside an isolated Docker container. Breach containment by design.
4
DM pairing whitelist
Only explicitly whitelisted phone numbers and accounts can interact with your AI.
5
High-risk tools disabled by default
File deletion, code execution, and network access tools are disabled unless explicitly needed.
6
Vetted skills only
No unverified community skills. Every installed skill is reviewed before deployment.
7
API key isolation and rotation
All API keys isolated per service, stored in environment variables, with rotation schedule set.
8
Comprehensive logging and alerts
Every action logged. Anomalies trigger immediate alerts to the owner.
9
Dedicated isolated machine
Your AI runs on a machine dedicated exclusively to OpenClaw. No shared compute risk.
10
Claude/injection-resistant model as primary
The primary AI model is selected specifically for prompt injection resistance.
11
mDNS disabled
Local network discovery disabled. Your AI cannot be detected or targeted by network scanners.
12
Outbound connection monitoring
All outbound connections logged and flagged for review. Nothing leaves without a trace.
Personalization

The SOUL.md System: Your AI's Identity

Every OpenClaw installation reads three core identity files on startup. This is what separates a generic AI assistant from one that feels like a true extension of you.

SOUL.md
WHO IT IS
Your AI's personality, values, communication style, humor level, tone, boundaries, and escalation rules. Edit this file and your AI's personality changes instantly. It literally reads itself into existence each morning.
USER.md
WHO YOU ARE
Your business, goals, key contacts, preferences, recurring projects, important dates, and context. Your AI always has complete knowledge of your world.
AGENTS.md
WHAT IT CAN DO
The permission manifest: which tools are enabled, which external services can be accessed, escalation rules, safety boundaries, and action confirmation requirements.

We build these files for you during setup, using industry-specific templates refined across dozens of real client deployments, then personalize them to your exact voice, workflow, and preferences during the SOUL customization phase.

Exclusive

Voice Staff: Text + Voice AI Sharing the Same Brain

No other service offers this. Voice Staff is our AI voice agent platform that handles inbound phone calls, qualifying leads, booking appointments, and handling inquiries, while sharing memory, context, and identity with your OpenClaw text assistant.

The result: A prospect calls your business at 11pm. Voice Staff answers with your warmth, your knowledge, your voice. Qualifies them. Books a call for Tuesday. The transcript flows into OpenClaw's memory. Tuesday morning, you wake up to a fully briefed calendar. The lead already feels known.
๐Ÿ“ž
Inbound Calls
Answers, qualifies, books. 24/7.
๐Ÿง 
Shared Memory
Call transcripts flow into OpenClaw context
๐ŸŒ™
24/7 Coverage
Never miss a call, lead, or opportunity
๐Ÿ“…
Auto-Booking
Books directly into your calendar
๐ŸŽญ
Your Voice
SOUL.md applied to every conversation

ROI in Days
One recovered lead covers the cost

Voice Staff is available as an add-on ($499/mo) with Business Pro and above, and is included in the Enterprise + Voice tier.

Capability

Build Software With Natural Language. No Coding Ever.

One of the most powerful, and least understood, capabilities of a properly configured OpenClaw is the ability to build custom software, tools, and automations using plain English.

Tell your AI what you want built. It builds it. "Create a client intake form that saves responses to my Google Sheet." "Build a daily revenue dashboard that pulls from Stripe." "Make an automation that posts my content to Instagram every Tuesday at 9am." No developer. No code. No waiting.

This capability is available to all tiers. The complexity and scale of what can be built scales with tier. Business Pro and Enterprise clients have access to multi-agent build teams and enterprise-grade automation infrastructure.

โœ“Custom client intake forms and CRM workflows
โœ“Revenue dashboards pulling live data from Stripe, Shopify, or spreadsheets
โœ“Content scheduling and distribution automations
โœ“Lead tracking pipelines with automatic follow-up
โœ“Internal tools and team dashboards
โœ“Document generation: proposals, contracts, reports
โœ“Email and SMS campaign automations
โœ“Custom reporting systems: daily, weekly, monthly

Founder ยท The Claw Concierge & Modern Mustard Seed

Sarah is an operator, not a theorist. She builds AI-powered business tools that work in the real world, not in a pitch deck. Based in Kalispell, Montana, near Flathead Lake, she founded Modern Mustard Seed to help creators and businesses build systems that serve both ambition and quality of life.

The Claw Concierge was born from direct experience: setting up OpenClaw for herself, realizing how powerful it was, then realizing how many people were getting it dangerously wrong. She built the service she wished existed when she started.
