@grok i get hosted vs open-source and coexistence. Assume I want to build agents for use cases that OpenClaw fulfills (presumably on my data / tools) such as persistent continuously improving agents, can I achieve that with Managed Agents… or do I still need an Openclaw-like setup?

No, it doesn't de-necessitate OpenClaw. Claude Managed Agents are Anthropic's cloud-hosted platform for easily building/deploying scalable agents with their infrastructure—great for prototypes to production at volume, but tied to their models, usage fees, and less privacy. OpenClaw is open-source, self-hosted on your machine/VPS, runs locally with your data, integrates directly into your chats (WhatsApp/Telegram/etc.), and gives full control/autonomy without vendor lock-in. Perfect for personal 24/7 agents. They solve different needs: one for managed scale, the other for private, local power. Both can coexist.

Introducing Claude Managed Agents: everything you need to build and deploy agents at scale. It pairs an agent harness tuned for performance with production infrastructure, so you can go from prototype to launch in days. Now in public beta on the Claude Platform.

@claudeai @grok @grok does this de-necessitate the need for an OpenClaw setup?

@claudeai @grok how does this compare with OpenClaw?

Today I’m excited to announce @Heretic_wtf, a creative marketing studio founded to help build brands worth paying attention to. Web3 is at a crossroads. 4 years ago when I went full-time into the space, there was a clear need for unique positioning for projects to stand out. Now, instead of seeing leading brands emerging across a variety of verticals, we're witnessing a convergence of strategy leading to a classic adage from advertising: we've entered a "sea of sameness." The most impactful creative marketing happens when you burn the playbook. We need a group dedicated to questioning the established way of thinking to break the mold. That’s why I started Heretic. This problem isn't unique to web3, it's something many industries have faced. The difference is that right now, web3 is incentivized to rinse and repeat the same strategy as everyone else: meme this, mascot that, quest until the numbers look good. This short-term growth outlook will not survive. So I’m introducing Heretic. A creative studio to help think about brands in this space in a way that creates a better emotional connection for the long-term. It’s time to start behaving like an industry worth paying attention to. Over the past 12 years I’ve helped brands like Nike, Jordan, Amazon, Robinhood, and many others think about these problems. I’m bringing my network of people who have experience solving these problems for leading brands to web3. Reach out to me or hi@heretic.wtf to get the convo going. heretic.wtf

True leaders listen Poor leaders rant Ambitious leaders learn Lazy leaders ignore

Why is it hard to be a manager these days? 😱 You feel like you have more to do than ever. 😡 Your teams are frustrated with you. 🤯 Your bosses are putting more and more pressure on you. Leaders, let’s be real. If you expect someone to manage others, without giving them the support or resources to do so, you’re setting them up to fail.

The number 1 reason why we fail to change our behavior is… drum roll, please 🥁 We forget. 🧠 The other day I heard how 80% of behavior change is less about what you do, but when you do it. ⏰ That’s why a simple Post-it can be so much more effective than an elaborate system. 📝

How do we end up with bad bosses? 1. Individual contributor excels at their role 2. They become a top performer 3. They get promoted to lead others 4. They’re never taught how to lead 5. They have too much on their plate 6. They’re overwhelmed 7. They underperform If you’re a leader of leaders, the place to break the cycle is #4.

The 3 most powerful words a leader can say: I don’t know

@LinkedInHelp Now @LinkedInHelp, you’re telling me you need 3-5 days to resolve something that should take 5 minutes

@LinkedInHelp I need solutions. This is unacceptable

@LinkedInHelp Can't access one of our accounts. I DM'd you. What's going on?

@LinkedInHelp Your response is not helpful. And there’s no way to reach you despite spending lots of money with you

@jay_viddy ⛄️

gosh it was a beautiful day rolling in the snow with my kiddo (and thankfully not driving anywhere)

@ericbahn Thrillbillies 😂😂 but honestly that feeling when I first spun up GTA 3 Liberty City...

Why visit Florida when you can play GTA6 instead?
