Paperclip is the app people use to manage AI agents for work.
Open-source orchestration for teams of AI agents.
If OpenClaw is an _employee_, Paperclip is the _company_.
Paperclip is a Node.js server and React UI that orchestrates a team of AI agents to run a business. Bring your own agents, assign goals, and track work and costs from one dashboard. Choose models and harnesses per agent while keeping your team's tasks, skills, permissions, and history in one place.
It looks like a task manager. Under the hood: org charts, budgets, governance, goal alignment, and agent coordination.
Manage business goals, not pull requests.
| | Step | Example | | ------ | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | | 01 | Define the goal | _"Build the #1 AI note-taking app to $1M MRR."_ | | 02 | Hire the team | CEO, CTO, engineers, designers, marketers — any bot, any provider. | | 03 | Approve and run | Review strategy. Set budgets. Hit go. Monitor from the dashboard. |

<em>If it can receive a heartbeat, it's hired.</em>
