EasyClaw is a Telegram-first agent for background work: briefings, follow-ups, monitoring, and dashboard automations. You will spend most of your time in Telegram; you configure recurring systems on the web. Under the hood everything runs on a managed OpenClaw runtime — no servers or API keys to wire up yourself.
What you are setting up
One account, one linked Telegram chat, and optional integrations (Calendar, RSS, HTTP, webhooks on the right plan). The goal is a loop that keeps delivering value without you reopening the app.
How to get running
- Sign in on the EasyClaw website and open your dashboard.
- Connect Telegram using the dashboard flow (deep link or short code). Details: Connect Telegram to EasyClaw.
- Send a simple first message in Telegram — a reminder, a question about today, or a habit you want tracked. Patterns: Using the agent.
- For anything recurring (RSS, morning briefing, scheduled checks), use Dashboard → Automations. Orientation: Dashboard overview.
When this path fits
- You want outcomes in Telegram, not another inbox.
- You are okay configuring integrations explicitly (nothing auto-wires every SaaS).
- You care about repeating workflows more than one-off novelty chats.
Examples of a strong first day
- “Remind me in one hour to call the bank.”
- “What do I have on my calendar tomorrow?” (after Calendar is connected.)
- “Send me a daily control every weekday at 7:30am.” — see Daily Control.
Plans and limits
Trials and Starter have different guardrails than Pro (especially for web-style monitoring, HTTP fetch, and inbound webhooks). Read Starter vs Pro and confirm details on checkout; your live envelope is in Dashboard → Usage.
Common mistakes
- Expecting every integration to work from chat alone — many are dashboard-first for safety.
- Skipping timezone and model defaults in the dashboard, then wondering why schedules feel “off.”
- Assuming EasyClaw is a generic chatbot — if that is the mental model, read What EasyClaw is not first.
