The primary aim of this new AI assistant is to perform daily tasks for Meta's billions of users. It is currently being tested internally by a select group of employees.

The company hopes to develop a product similar to OpenAI's OpenClaw with the tool.

OpenClaw can connect multiple hardware and software tools while learning from the data generated with minimal human intervention compared to chatbots.
