What OctoClaw Agents Do

Inbox Management

OctoClaw agents monitor your email continuously. They categorize messages, draft responses for review, flag urgent items, and handle routine replies autonomously. You set rules for what the agent can respond to directly versus what needs your approval.

Calendar & Scheduling

The scheduling agent handles meeting requests, finds optimal times across attendees, sends confirmations, and manages rescheduling. It learns your preferences — no meetings before 10am, buffer time between calls, preferred meeting lengths.

Research

The research agent conducts background research on prospects, competitors, market trends, and topics you specify. It compiles structured reports and updates them on a schedule you define.

CRM Automation

OctoClaw connects to Salesforce, HubSpot, and other CRMs to keep records updated. It logs interactions, updates deal stages based on email activity, and flags accounts that need attention.

How It Works

  1. Connect your tools — OAuth integrations with Gmail, Calendar, CRM, Slack
  2. Configure agent behaviors — Visual rules for what each agent handles
  3. Set autonomy levels — Full auto, draft-for-review, or notify-only
  4. Monitor dashboard — See what agents are doing in real-time

Pricing

OctoClaw uses per-agent pricing:

PlanAgentsPrice

BusinessUnlimited$199/month

Who Should Use OctoClaw

  • Sales teams wanting automated CRM updates and prospect research
  • Founders overwhelmed by inbox and scheduling
  • Operations teams needing workflow automation without engineering
  • Small businesses that can’t justify building custom agent infrastructure

OctoClaw fills a gap between simple automation tools like Zapier and developer-focused agent frameworks like OpenClaw or LangGraph.
