Life Admin & HomeDone with OpenClaw Oct 10, 2026
Draft messages, fill web forms and prototype sites by chat
The author messages an OpenClaw agent on WhatsApp to draft messages, fill forms in a browser, and research a topic then build and host an HTML prototype.
- What They Did
- Aman Khan runs OpenClaw on a separate machine and messages it on WhatsApp, including voice notes. He connected an Obsidian vault, browser control and web search through a Brave plugin. He asks it to draft messages from his notes, fill forms, and research a topic, then build an HTML site and host it on surge.
- How It Went
- He built a mobile-app prototype for Arize this way, through some back and forth. The post gives no success rates or timings for drafting or form filling.
- Worth Knowing
- He reports costs of roughly $10-15/day on Opus, with spikes above $30. Sonnet is much cheaper, and an agent with browser access needs prompt-injection rules.
Try it yourself with OpenClaw
I'll message you from [WhatsApp or chat app] with small tasks. First, draft a reply to [person] about [topic] in my usual tone and show it to me without sending. Second, fill out the form at [URL] with the details I give you and stop before submitting so I can review. Third, research [topic], build a one-page HTML prototype from it, and give me the hosted link.
