# OpenClaw integration

> Run OpenClaw's browser on Browserbase instead of OpenClaw's built-in local Chromium.

[OpenClaw](https://docs.openclaw.ai/) is an agent runtime with built-in tools, workspace automation, and browser control. For Browserbase users, the recommended OpenClaw integration path is the built-in browser plugin with a Browserbase-backed browser profile.

<Tip>
  See [Remote browser vs local browser](/platform/browser/getting-started/remote-browser-versus-local-browser) for why Browserbase's managed browser beats self-hosted Chromium.
</Tip>

If you want to stay inside OpenClaw's native browser experience, start there first. If you want access to additional Browserbase platform features and more granular control over browser sessions, use the CLI path second.
