The next version of OpenClaw is also an MCP, you can use it instead of Anthropic's message channel MCP to connect to a much wider range of message providers. 🚨 **Big Step Forward for AI-Powered Realtors: Why OpenClaw + MCP Just Leveled Up Your Game** 🚨 Hey everyone in the Realtors Learning AI community! 👋 If you’ve been following along in our lessons on agentic AI, you know we started simple: using **Claude’s built-in agentic tools** (like Computer Use, Projects, or Artifacts) to automate listing descriptions, client follow-ups, market analysis, and even basic lead nurturing. That’s the perfect on-ramp. No coding required, just point-and-click power that already saves you hours every week. But here’s the exciting news that just dropped (and why it matters to every one of you): Peter Steinberger (the guy behind OpenClaw) announced that the **next version of OpenClaw is now a full MCP** — meaning you can swap out Anthropic’s limited message channel MCP and connect your AI agent to a *much wider range of messaging providers* (WhatsApp, MS Teams, Matrix, SMS, and more). In plain English: Your AI agent is no longer stuck inside one ecosystem. It can now live where your clients actually message you — right in their favorite apps. ### Why This Is a Massive Win for Realtors Learning AI 1. **The natural next step after Claude** You’ve already mastered Claude’s agentic tools.
