What is BOB?
BOB is a hosted AI employee, an AI agent that lives inside your WhatsApp (and Telegram), not a website chatbot. It remembers every customer, every past conversation, and your business context, so it gets better the longer it works with you instead of resetting each time. It connects to the apps you already use and does real work on its own: answering and following up with leads, booking meetings, calling, and keeping your records up to date. It is free to try, starting with a 7-day free trial, built on the open-source OpenClaw engine and powered by Claude.
How is BOB different from ChatGPT?
Section titled “How is BOB different from ChatGPT?”A chat AI like ChatGPT writes, and forgets everything once the conversation ends. BOB does, and remembers. You prompt ChatGPT and it hands you text, in a conversation that resets. You give BOB a job and it carries it out across your tools, without you in the middle, and it remembers the customer the next time they message too. One drafts the follow-up message. The other sends it, books the call, chases the lead for days, and recognizes that same customer weeks later.
Where does BOB run?
Section titled “Where does BOB run?”BOB works inside the messaging apps you already use: WhatsApp and Telegram. You talk to it the way you would text a colleague. There is nothing new to open and no separate app for your customers to install.
What can BOB actually do?
Section titled “What can BOB actually do?”BOB takes an action to completion, across your systems. Common jobs owners hand to BOB:
- Reply to new leads in seconds and follow up until they answer.
- Book, confirm, and reschedule meetings on your calendar.
- Keep your CRM updated after every conversation.
- Answer routine customer questions on WhatsApp, day and night.
- Connect to your other tools, or to any external API, and act in them.
Is BOB free to try?
Section titled “Is BOB free to try?”Yes. BOB starts with a 7-day free trial, no payment due at signup. After the trial, plans start at Lite ($29/month). See Plans & limits.
Does BOB actually remember things?
Section titled “Does BOB actually remember things?”Yes, that is a core part of what makes it an employee instead of a tool. BOB remembers each customer it has talked to, what was said, and the context of your business, across conversations and over time. See Configure your AI employee for how its memory and knowledge base work.
What is OpenClaw, and why does it matter?
Section titled “What is OpenClaw, and why does it matter?”OpenClaw is the open-source agent engine BOB is built on. It is what lets BOB connect to 1,000+ apps and use tools to get work done, rather than only chat. You do not need to know anything about OpenClaw to use BOB; it is the engine under the hood.
