About stepclaw
StepClaw is a cloud-based AI agent developed by StepFun, built on the open-source OpenClaw framework and powered by the Step 3.5 Flash large language model. It acts as an autonomous digital worker capable of planning and executing complex multi-step tasks, such as website monitoring, daily briefing generation, and file management. Unlike standard chatbots, StepClaw runs 24/7 on dedicated cloud infrastructure with persistent memory, allowing it to learn from past interactions and improve over time. It offers seamless integration with various communication platforms like Lark, WhatsApp, and Telegram, making advanced AI automation accessible to non-technical users.
How to Use
To use StepClaw, download the StepFun AI App on iOS or Android. Within the app, deploy your personal StepClaw instance to the cloud with a single tap. Once provisioned with dedicated resources, you can assign tasks using natural language, set up recurring automation via cron jobs, and connect the agent to your preferred messaging platforms.
