Overview
MakersClaw is an AI agents platform for hiring "AI employees" that run 24/7 and live inside the communication tools teams already use. The Product Hunt launch on June 16, 2026 described it as a way to hire AI employees for Slack, Teams, and Telegram. The official site expands that positioning to Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, email, CRM, MCP tools, and playgrounds backed by a unified wallet.
The product is best understood as a business-facing AI agent platform rather than a simple chatbot builder. MakersClaw agents run in dedicated containers, can be subscribed to separately from the account-level Pro plan, and are positioned for support, sales, research, CRM, and operations use cases.
MakersClaw is also notable because it makes the entry path clear. The pricing page lists a free tier for all users, a $29/month Pro account upgrade, and AI Agent subscriptions starting at $20/month with a 3-day free trial.
Key Features
24/7 AI employees - Runs agents as dedicated workers that can stay available in messaging channels instead of waiting for a user to open a chatbot.
Messaging-channel deployment - Connects AI agents to Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, and related communication workflows so teams can interact where they already work.
CRM playground - Includes CRM usage on the free tier, with limits on companies, contacts, and boards before Pro unlocks unlimited CRM access.
Account-level Pro plan - Unlocks premium models, unlimited CRM usage, and recurring wallet credit that can be spent across MakersClaw workflows.
Dedicated agent subscriptions - Offers separate AI Agent subscriptions such as PicoClaw and Moltis, each with its own monthly runtime and storage model.
Unified wallet - Uses a wallet system for premium AI model calls across CRM, agents, and other playgrounds, making usage visible in one place.
Integration Guide
MakersClaw has two buying layers. Pro is an account-level upgrade for playgrounds and premium models. AI Agents are separate subscriptions that run as dedicated workers. That distinction matters because a team can use the free CRM and wallet first, then add a paid agent only when it has a channel-based workflow worth automating.
Start by mapping the agent's role before connecting it to a busy Slack or Teams workspace. A support agent needs product documentation, escalation rules, and refund boundaries. A sales agent needs qualification criteria and CRM write rules. A research agent needs approved sources and output templates. Treat each agent like a workflow owner, not just a prompt.
For teams already exploring AI commerce or operations tools such as SellerClaw, MakersClaw is broader: it focuses on general AI employees and messaging channels, while SellerClaw is specifically tuned for e-commerce operations.
