Self-Hosted AI

The first OpenClaw avatar app. On any platform.

OpenClaw runs locally but lives in a terminal. Chitin gives it a face, a voice, and a memory.

Why Chitin + OpenClaw

OpenClaw is an open-source AI gateway that runs on your own hardware. It lets you use any open-source language model — Llama, Mistral, Phi, and more — locally. Your conversations never leave your network.

The problem: OpenClaw runs in a terminal. No avatar, no voice, no persistent memory across devices.

Chitin is the first app to give OpenClaw a proper presentation layer. Animated 3D avatars, natural speech, and memory that follows you from your phone to your car to your desktop.

How It Works

Local Network

Free

Chitin auto-discovers your OpenClaw instance on the same WiFi network. Zero configuration — just open the app and start talking.

Remote Access

Plus

Access your OpenClaw gateway from anywhere through Chitin's encrypted relay. Your models, your data — accessible from any network. $9.99/month with Plus.

Chitin Bridge

macOS

A lightweight menu bar app that connects your Mac to Chitin. Bridges your local OpenClaw instance to all your devices without exposing ports.

What You Get

Animated Avatar

10 fully animated 3D characters with lip-sync, expressions, and idle animations.

Natural Voice

Text-to-speech with multiple voice options. Your AI speaks out loud, not just in text.

Memory Across Surfaces

Conversations persist across phone, avatar, and car. Your AI remembers context everywhere.

CarPlay

Talk to your AI hands-free while driving. Voice-first, designed for the road.
