OpenClaw is built to be reached through the messaging platforms your team already uses rather than through its own dedicated app. It can connect to:
- Telegram
- Discord
Connecting a channel is done from inside your OpenClaw instance after it's installed, using that platform's own connection method (a bot token for Telegram or Discord, for example). This is a per-instance setup step, distinct from the single sign-on VCloud wires up automatically for the instance itself - one governs how you and your team sign in to manage OpenClaw, the other governs how OpenClaw talks to your chat platform.
