Nvidia I’m betting that the future of corporate AI will run on OpenClaw, and that it will be the company that does it. In it GTC Conference yesterday (March 15), CEO Jensen Huang unveiled NemoClaw, a new venture agent platform built on top of open source virus system OpenClaw, positioning Nvidia as a secure way for businesses to adopt agent software.
NemoClaw is designed to bring OpenClaw’s “claws,” or autonomous AI agents, into corporate environments with increased security and governance. The prepackaged software staff installs OpenClaw along with Nvidia’s Nemotron models and a new runtime layer, adding sandboxing, privacy controls, and policy-based guardrails so that agents seeking full access to files and data can operate more securely.
OpenClaw has exploded in popularity since its launch four months ago, empowering autonomous agents that took their own social platform and fueling a fandom that includes a New York City convention and a surge in adoptions in China. Huang called it “the most popular open source project in human history” and compared its role in AI to Windows and Linux in previous eras of computing. “Now, OpenClaw has made it possible for us to create personal agents,” he said.
Huang said that Nvidia has been working closely with the creator of OpenClaw Peter Steinbergeran Austrian computer scientist known for his prolific developer tools, to shape NemoClaw. Steinberger launched OpenClaw in November 2025 and has since been employed by OpenAI to lead its personal agents division, although the software remains an independent open source project.
Nowhere has the rise of OpenClaw been more dramatic than in China, where companies like it Tencent, Alibaba AND ByteDance have rushed toolkits built around it. But regulators have been far more cautious, with Beijing warning firms of security risks. Similar concerns have emerged in the US; MetaFor example, it has asked employees not to install OpenClaw on machines working behind an agent went rogue and mass deleted a user’s email inbox.
Huang released NemoClaw in response to these concerns. He said Nvidia had worked with “the world’s best security and computing experts” to build the security and privacy controls that enterprises expect. “Every company in the world today needs to have an OpenClaw strategy and an agent system strategy – this is the new computing,” he told the GTC audience, and is said to be pitching the platform to companies including Salesforce, Cisco, Google, Adobe AND CrowdStrike.
Betting on OpenClaw comes from a position of tremendous strength. Thanks to voracious demand for its GPUs, which power most large-scale artificial intelligence systems, Nvidia has become the world’s most valuable public company with a market cap of around $4.5 trillion. Huang, who originally founded Nvidia as a maker of gaming chips before moving into AI, told attendees he expects the company to sell $1 trillion worth of advanced GPUs by 2027 as demand for computers grows; Last year he predicted that orders would reach $500 billion by the end of 2026.
Huang’s OpenClaw push and bullish sales outlook headlined this year’s GTC, often called “AI’s Super BowlSpeaking to a packed hockey arena in San Jose, he also unveiled upcoming GPU architectures called Vera Rubin and Feynman and unveiled a new inference-focused chip built with startup Grok.
