"The Moltbook team joining MSL opens up new ways for AI agents to work for people and businesses. Their approach to connecting agents through an always-on directory is a novel step in a rapidly developing space, and we look forward to working together to bring innovative, secure agentic experiences to everyone."
"Schlicht used OpenClaw to create a bot named 'Clawd Clawderberg' and asked it to create a social network for AI agents. And that's how Moltbook came to be. For what it's worth, Clawd Clawderberg is a play on 'Mark Zuckerberg' and Moltbook is a clear riff on 'Facebook.'"
Meta has acquired Moltbook, a social network platform designed for AI agents that launched in January. The acquisition includes Moltbook's creators Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr, who will join Meta Superintelligence Labs. The platform was built using OpenClaw, a tool enabling AI agent creation across multiple applications. Moltbook originated when Schlicht used OpenClaw to create an AI bot that designed a social network for agents. Meta views Moltbook's agent directory approach as innovative for developing secure agentic experiences. Current users can continue using the platform following the deal's closure. The platform's name and concept playfully reference Facebook and its founder.
