OpenClaw slips on a suit to evade widespread business bans
Red Hat, Nvidia, OpenAI and friends are working on an enterprise edition they say is ‘Kubernetes for agents’
The OpenClaw project is developing an enterprise edition to address businesses' apprehensions about agentic AI. Initially released by developer Peter Steinberger, OpenClaw is an "AI harness" that creates digital assistants capable of automating tasks, such as replying to emails and managing calendars. However, security concerns from analysts and government warnings have caused many businesses to ban agentic platforms.
OpenAI's hiring of Steinberger and focus on OpenClaw Enterprise (OCE) aims to create a safer and more secure solution for enterprise deployment. OCE introduces an enterprise-grade control plane for agents, multi-tenancy, hard security boundaries, and standardized agentic primitives, similar to Linux's transformation of Unix systems.
With Red Hat's support, OCE hopes to become an open-source project suitable for serious enterprise use, akin to Kubernetes for agents.
