OpenClaw is an open-source AI assistant that runs locally and connects to your messaging platforms. The CreatorCrawl skill gives your OpenClaw agent access to 30+ TikTok and Instagram data endpoints.
Ask your agent to “find trending TikTok creators in the fitness niche” or “pull the latest Instagram reels from @nike” and it fetches the data for you.

npm install -g openclaw@latest
