Some employees at Amazon now seem to be using an internal AI platform called “MeshClaw” to automate extra workplace activity as pressure grows internally to demonstrate visible AI adoption to managers.

According to a report from the Financial Times, Amazon recently expanded the rollout of the in-house tool, which allows workers to create AI agents capable of interacting with workplace software and completing tasks on their behalf.

Inspired by “OpenClaw,” an open-source AI agent framework that gained widespread attention earlier this year for allowing users to run AI agents locally on personal devices, MeshClaw reportedly enables Amazon employees to automate tasks such as code deployments, email triaging, and interactions with workplace tools like Slack.

More than three dozen Amazon employees are said to have worked on the system internally, according to documents seen by the FT. One internal memo described the bot as something that “dreams overnight to consolidate what it learned, monitors your deployments while you’re in meetings and triages your email before you wake up.”
