According to official announcements, Web3 intelligence-layer project Claw Intelligence has raised $3 million in seed funding. Investors include Castrum Istanbul, Titans Ventures, Super Labs, and Genesis Capital. Claw Intelligence is simplifying user interaction with the Web3 ecosystem and underlying computing resources through its unified intelligence layer, lowering operational barriers.

New features include a secure, isolated large language model (LLM)-powered code execution sandbox that safely runs code directly within the chat interface—enabling real-time computation, data processing, and script prototyping; and LLM-driven cross-device/multi-computer control, allowing users to centrally manage multiple devices and servers via natural-language commands.
