OpenClaw Academy
Master OpenClaw. The right way.
From setup to security — learn to deploy OpenClaw properly.
Built by builders, for builders.
⟩ The Risk
OpenClaw is powerful.
Misconfigured OpenClaw is dangerous.
It has access to your files, your email, your calendar, your cloud infrastructure. A single misconfiguration can expose your entire digital life.
Prompt Injection
Attackers can manipulate your AI to execute malicious commands
Data Exfiltration
Sensitive data leaking to third-party APIs or public channels
Destructive Actions
Unintended file deletions, infrastructure changes, or data loss
Social Engineering
Your AI can be tricked into revealing credentials or secrets
The solution? Learn OpenClaw security from a core contributor who's deployed it in production — and helped build it.

⟩ What People Say About OpenClaw
"Why @openclaw is nuts: your context and skills live on YOUR computer, not a walled garden. It's open source. 'Personal AI assistant' undersells it — it's a company assistant, family assistant, team tool. Proactive AF: cron jobs, reminders, background tasks. Memory is amazing, context persists 24/7."
"I've been saying for like six months that even if LLMs suddenly stopped improving, we could spend *years* discovering new transformative uses. @openclaw feels like that kind of 'just had to glue all the parts together' leap forward. Incredible experience."
"It will actually be the thing that nukes a ton of startups, not ChatGPT as people meme about. The fact that it's hackable (and more importantly, self-hackable) and hostable on-prem will make sure tech like this DOMINATES conventional SaaS imo"
"After years of AI hype, I thought nothing could faze me. Then I installed @openclaw. From nervous 'hi what can you do?' to full throttle - design, code review, taxes, PM, content pipelines... AI as teammate, not tool. The endgame of digital employees is here."
"Not enterprise. Not hosted. Infrastructure you control. This is what personal AI should feel like."
"A smart model with eyes and hands at a desk with keyboard and mouse. You message it like a coworker and it does everything a person could do with that Mac mini. That's what you have now."

⟩ FAQ
Do I need to know how to code?
Not for the basics. Modules 1-3 require no coding. Module 5 (Custom Skills) assumes basic JavaScript/TypeScript knowledge.
Is this official OpenClaw training?
OpenClaw Academy is built by an OpenClaw core contributor with code merged into the project. We know the codebase inside and out because we help build it.
What if I already have OpenClaw running?
Perfect. Start with Module 2 (Security Hardening). Most people skip this and regret it later.
