OpenClaw Explained: Why You Shouldn’t Use It at Scale

OpenClaw is an open-source platform for self-hosted AI assistants, suitable for developers managing AI interactions across multiple channels. While it excels in centralizing AI interactions and providing flexibility, it is not a quick automation layer or a no-code tool. Most implementations fail at scale due to poor architecture, lack of governance, and weak security. OpenClaw makes sense when treated as infrastructure and deployed with proper management, logging, and security. Scalevise integrates OpenClaw within a broader system architecture, ensuring it operates within defined permissions and responsibilities.
