MaxClaw: Deploy a Full AI Agent to Telegram in 20 Seconds

MaxClaw is MiniMax's fully managed AI agent platform that deploys into Telegram, WeChat, WhatsApp, and Slack in under 20 seconds — no Docker, no API keys, no server to babysit.

Built on the open-source OpenClaw framework, it ships with web search, code execution, image/video generation, and a 200K token context window for persistent memory across sessions. Scheduled digests mean it can proactively push summaries to you on a timer.

Pricing starts at ~$10/month with a free trial. MiniMax — which went public on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in January 2026 with its stock doubling on debut — is clearly pushing MaxClaw as the zero-friction alternative to self-hosting OpenClaw.

Why it matters: dropping a capable AI agent directly into the chat apps people already live in removes the last adoption barrier — no new app, no setup, just a bot that works.
