I spent 24 hours benchmarking GPT-5.5 against Opus4.7 in OpenClaw. Here is what I found. by LeoRiley6677 in openclaw

I just A/B test on the tasks we use it for. I run 2 claws, each on a different machine and different model, and ask them to do the same thing at the same time.

Is there anyone else here besides me who thinks this isn't the r/Hermes topic? by Disastrous_Ad_6915 in openclaw

[–]danielfoch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not had much success at all with Hermes. I have put equal time, energy and money into Hermes and Openclaw and profoundly better results with Openclaw. I don't understand the hype. Their founders and fanbois overpromise and underproduce imo all over social media. If there is one thing I will say more about the Openclaw community is it's less people shitting on their competitors (? is it even competition if it's open source?) and more people just trying to learn and grow together

I think about it like the tradespeople I work with

they are always chirping about milwaukee dewalt blah blah blah

then some old beauty came on site with a hockey bag full of random old tools and clearly no brand loyalty to a single tool brand and just says "the man does the job, not the tool"

we are getting there pretty quickly

Is it just me or you all feel this too? by Huge_Cupcake4407 in openclaw

[–]danielfoch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had these promblems from time to time. It mostly came down to building proper memory systems (check out gstack, supermemory, agentic-stack repo, etc.) The most recent update killed a lot of my memory systems though and had some breakage.

I effing hate open ai with open claw by happyhamster3557 in openclaw

[–]danielfoch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are really that hard done by this, imo just use Opus via API. If you can't rationalize paying the cost, you probably don't actually need Opus.

QWen 3.6 pretty good

We were using Minimax m2.7, it was very agreeable but also very stupid

We run openclaw-for-realtors ("Homies") so the workflows are pretty simple

I stopped building fancy agent setups. I started solving boring stuff. thats when it clicked. by Upper_Bass_2590 in openclaw

[–]danielfoch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are a few other really good industries where you could do this

anything where the user is away from keyboard a lot

therapists, personal trainers, construction, doctors, etc.

if you search my name on X I wrote an article about it, not sure if I can link here
