Well for the OpenAi part, there was another HN thread on it where several people pointed out it was a marketing move more than a technical one.

If Anthropic is able to spend millions for TV commercial to attract laypeople, OpenAi can certainly do the same to gain traction from dev/hacky folks i guess.

One thing i've done so far -not with claws- is to create several n8n workflows like: reading an email, creating a draft + label, connecting to my backend or CRM, etc which allow me to control all that from Claude or Claude Code if needed.

It's been a nice productivity boost but I do accept/review all changes beforehand. I guess the reviewing is what makes it different from openclaws
