OpenClaw on YouTube: Best Tutorials and Demos This Week

The OpenClaw YouTube community continues to grow, with content ranging from quick-start guides to deep dives into multi-agent orchestration. Here's a roundup of the most useful recent videos — whether you're just getting started or looking to push your setup further.

This Week's Top Picks

AI-Assisted Coding with OpenClaw, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Code

Published March 31st, this tutorial covers using OpenClaw alongside GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, CodeRabbit, and Gemini CLI in a unified development environment. The OpenClaw segment demonstrates setting up a locally hosted AI assistant that can run code, manage PRs, and respond to chat — all woven into a real coding workflow. If you're a developer looking to use OpenClaw as more than a chat bot, this is the video to watch.

Crash Course for Beginners (March 2026 Edition)

Published March 11th, this comprehensive beginner course covers the full setup arc: VPS deployment, Telegram bot connection, memory system configuration, skills and automation, and custom Gemini model integration. It also includes a walkthrough of building a daily YouTube newsletter app — a great applied example of what OpenClaw can do out of the box.

Full Setup, Use Cases, and Security (March 16th)

This one focuses specifically on running OpenClaw on a separate cloud server for 24/7 availability, which is the recommended production pattern. It walks through security hardening, calendar and email integration, and real-world use cases. Good companion to the crash course if you want to go deeper on the security side.

Build a Business That Runs Itself (Nat Eliason)

Nat Eliason's February entry remains one of the most-referenced OpenClaw videos on YouTube. The 35-minute runtime covers memory systems, multi-threaded chats, security best practices, and making OpenClaw practical for business operations. Worth a watch even if you've been using OpenClaw for a while — his framing of it as infrastructure rather than a toy is useful.

What's Missing

Notably thin on YouTube right now: video content covering the newer cron automation and multi-agent architecture features. The documentation and Reddit discussions are ahead of the video content here. If you're a creator looking for an underserved angle, the /tasks command from today's v2026.4.1 release and the new SearXNG web search plugin are prime candidates.

Getting Started

New to OpenClaw? The official documentation is well-maintained, and the r/openclaw subreddit has an active community answering setup questions. The beginner crash course above is the fastest path from zero to running.
