Why OpenClaw CRM

Most CRMs are closed-source, expensive, and impossible for AI agents to work with natively. OpenClaw CRM is different: it ships with a full REST API, machine-readable docs, and first-class OpenClaw Bot integration. Your AI agent can search contacts, create deals, update records, and manage tasks without any glue code.

Self-host it on your own server. No vendor lock-in, no per-seat pricing, no data leaving your infrastructure.

OpenClaw Bot Integration

OpenClaw CRM plugs directly into your OpenClaw Bot. Generate a SKILL.md and config from Settings > OpenClaw, drop them into your bot's skills folder, and your agent can manage your CRM through natural language.

• 40+ REST API endpoints your bot can call
• Bearer token auth with oc_sk_ prefix API keys
• Machine-readable docs at /llms-api.txt and /openapi.json

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+
• pnpm 9+
• PostgreSQL 16+ (or use Docker)

Quick Start

1. Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/giorgosn/openclaw-crm.git
cd openclaw-crm
pnpm install

2. Set up environment

cp .env.example apps/web/.env

Edit apps/web/.env with your database credentials and a random BETTER_AUTH_SECRET.

3. Start PostgreSQL

Using Docker (recommended):

docker compose up db -d

Or use an existing PostgreSQL instance and update DATABASE_URL in .env.

4. Push database schema

pnpm db:push

5. Seed default data

Seeds workspace, standard objects (People, Companies, Deals), and deal stages:

pnpm db:seed

6. Start development server

pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3001 and create an account.

Docker Deployment

Development

docker compose up

This starts PostgreSQL and the Next.js dev server.

Production

# Set required env vars
export BETTER_AUTH_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32)

# Build and run
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up --build -d

See .env.example for all configurable environment variables.

AI Chat Setup

1. Get an API key from OpenRouter
2. Go to Settings > AI in the app
3. Enter your OpenRouter API key and select a model
4. Navigate to /chat and start talking to your data

Database Schema

Uses a Typed EAV (Entity-Attribute-Value) pattern where record_values has typed columns (text_value, number_value, date_value, timestamp_value, boolean_value, json_value, referenced_record_id) enabling native SQL filtering and indexing on each type.
