Overview
Operator.io (Operator Research, Inc.) is a YC-backed, New York City–based AI chief of staff platform. Its current site and docs describe an autonomous OpenClaw agent that can manage inbox/calendar work, research, GitHub/dev tasks, and social workflows with a real browser and persistent memory; some older public directories still show a legacy Operator Labs / blockchain-oriented description.
