Your AI assistant, sandboxed and beautiful.
Run OpenClaw in an isolated VM with a native macOS experience.
OpenClaw is incredibly powerful—it can browse the web, write code, manage files, and automate tasks. But there's a catch:
- It runs directly on your machine with full access to everything
- It's CLI-only, which isn't for everyone
ClawBox wraps OpenClaw in a sandboxed Linux VM and gives it a gorgeous native interface.
Your AI assistant gets the tools it needs. Your system stays protected.
 5-Minute Setup No terminal. No config files. Just click. |
 Bring Your Own API Key Claude or GPT—your choice. |
|
Native Chat Experience Markdown, code blocks, file downloads. |
 Multiple Personalities Create agents for different tasks. |
- Isolated by default — OpenClaw runs in a VM, not on your host
- Native macOS app — Built with Tauri, feels right at home
- Drag & drop files — Share images and documents with your AI
- Multi-channel — Connect Telegram, Discord, Slack, and more
- Multiple agents — Different personalities for different tasks
- Menu bar integration — Always one click away
