Is my data secure and encrypted?

All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.3. Your encryption keys are stored exclusively on your dedicated VPS.

Are my conversations truly private?

Yes. Each user gets a fully isolated container environment. We follow a zero-knowledge architecture.

Do you train AI models on my data?

Never. Your conversations and data are never used to train AI models.

AI Agent vs Chatbot: What Is the Difference? (2026 Guide)

The key difference between an AI agent and a chatbot is action. A chatbot responds to messages with text — it can answer questions, generate content, and hold conversations. An AI agent goes further: it can plan multi-step tasks, execute code, manage files, browse the web, and take autonomous action in the real world. Chatbots talk about doing things; agents actually do them.

How It Relates to EasyClawd

OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot, also known as Moltbot) is a prime example of an AI agent. When you tell it "analyze this data and create a chart," it writes Python code, runs it, generates the visualization, and sends it to you on Telegram. A chatbot would describe how to do it. EasyClawd makes this AI agent accessible to everyone.

Examples

Chatbot: "How do I count lines in a file?" → explains the command. AI Agent: "Count the lines in report.csv" → runs `wc -l report.csv`, reports "1,247 lines." Chatbot: "Write a Python script for web scraping." → generates code. AI Agent: "Scrape the top 10 products from this website." → writes code, runs it, sends results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an AI agent and a chatbot?

A chatbot responds with text. An AI agent takes action — running code, managing files, browsing the web, and automating tasks. OpenClaw is an AI agent; ChatGPT is primarily a chatbot.

Is ChatGPT an AI agent or a chatbot?

ChatGPT is primarily a chatbot with limited agent capabilities. It can generate text and has some code execution, but it doesn't run 24/7, manage persistent files, or integrate with messaging apps like a true agent.

Which is better, an AI agent or a chatbot?

It depends on your needs. For conversation and Q&A: chatbots (ChatGPT, Claude). For autonomous task execution: AI agents (OpenClaw). Many users benefit from both.
