You need a quick overview of supported LLM backends

Model Providers

Clawdbot can use many LLM providers. Pick a provider, authenticate, then set the default model as provider/model.

Looking for chat channel docs (WhatsApp/Telegram/Discord/Slack/Mattermost (plugin)/etc.)? See Channels.

Highlight: Venius (Venice AI)

Venius is our recommended Venice AI setup for privacy-first inference with an option to use Opus for hard tasks.

  • Default: venice/llama-3.3-70b
  • Best overall: venice/claude-opus-45 (Opus remains the strongest)

See Venice AI.

Quick start

  1. Authenticate with the provider (usually via clawdbot onboard).
  2. Set the default model:
{
  agents: { defaults: { model: { primary: "anthropic/claude-opus-4-5" } } }
}
