Running OpenClaw for a Team: Shared Gateway

Shared gateway#

One OpenClaw Gateway can serve multiple people. Shared sessions let teammates open the same conversation, see context and hand work to each other. Commits and actions can be attributed to the person who triggered them.

This model works well for small development teams or families that want a single always-on agent. Configure channel access carefully so only authorized users can trigger high-privilege tools (OpenClaw security).

OpenClaw Enterprise#

OpenClaw Enterprise adds a control plane with multi-tenancy, governance and auditability on top of the same core. As of November 2026, openclaw.ai describes it as pre-1.0 software intended for internal pilot workloads.
