Lite Claw

A personal AI assistant that prioritizes security over convenience. Unlike traditional AI agents that expose network ports and run with full system access, Lite Claw uses a locked-down architecture with no attack surface.

No Exposed Ports

Outbound-only connections to Telegram. Nothing to find on Shodan.

Whitelist Authentication

Only approved Telegram user IDs can interact with your agent.

Confirmation Gates

Write operations require explicit approval with random codes.

Serverless Native

Scales to zero. Pay only when running. ~$5-15/month.

​
What can it do?

Lite Claw connects to your productivity tools and lets you interact via natural language in Telegram:
  • Calendar — Read and create Google Calendar events
  • Email — Summarize Gmail inbox
  • Weather — Daily forecasts
  • Scheduled briefings — Morning summaries and weekly reviews
You: What's on my calendar tomorrow?

     • 11:30am - Lunch with Alex [Personal]
     • 3:00pm - Design review [Work]

Who is this for?

Lite Claw is for developers who want a personal AI assistant but don’t trust the security posture of existing solutions. If you’ve looked at OpenClaw and thought “I’m not exposing port 18789 to the internet,” this is for you. You should use Lite Claw if:
  • You want an AI assistant you control
  • Security matters more than features
  • You’re comfortable deploying to Railway/Vercel/Lambda
  • You want to pay for usage, not subscriptions
