Nvidia has developed NemoClaw, an enterprise-grade AI agent platform based on the OpenClaw open-source framework, CEO Jensen Huang announced Monday.
The new platform aims to address security and privacy concerns, potentially enabling wider enterprise adoption of AI agents by providing a controlled environment for their operation and data handling.
NemoClaw integrates enterprise-grade security and privacy features into OpenClaw. Nvidia states this allows companies to manage AI agent behavior and data handling with a single command.
Huang stated, “Every company in the world today needs to have an OpenClaw strategy, an agentic systems strategy.” He compared the necessity of an OpenClaw strategy to past needs for Linux, HTTP HTML, and Kubernetes strategies.
Nvidia collaborated with OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger on NemoClaw’s development. The platform allows users to access coding agents and open-source AI models, including Nvidia’s NemoTron models, and can utilize cloud-based models on local devices.
NemoClaw is hardware agnostic and integrates with NeMo, Nvidia’s AI agent software suite. Nvidia describes NemoClaw as an early-stage alpha release, noting it is “building toward production-ready sandbox orchestration.”
The development follows a trend of companies focusing on enterprise AI agent platforms. OpenAI launched Frontier in February for enterprises to build and manage AI agents. Gartner reported in December that governance platforms for AI agents would be crucial infrastructure for enterprise AI adoption.
Huang said, “OpenClaw gave us, gave the industry exactly what it needed at exactly the time,” drawing parallels to the timely emergence of Linux, Kubernetes, and HTML.
