What is Nvidia NemoClaw and how to try it

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang gave OpenClaw, the open-source AI agent recently acquired by OpenAI, big praise earlier this week at Nvidia's 2026 GTC conference.

"Every company in the world today needs to have an OpenClaw strategy, an agentic system strategy," Huang said, comparing what OpenClaw will do for AI agents with what Windows did for PCs. "This is the new computer."

And Nvidia is backing up those words with Nvidia NemoClaw, the company's own stack for the OpenClaw agent platform.

Nvidia appears to think quite highly of OpenClaw. However, OpenClaw's biggest flaw up to this point has been with security and safety issues. Nvidia wants to build upon OpenClaw's AI agent capabilities with NemoClaw.

According to Nvidia, NemoClaw is "an open source stack that adds privacy and security controls to OpenClaw." Essentially, NemoClaw adds missing security and privacy layers to the AI agent platform to create a safer, more secure OpenClaw using the Nvidia Agent Toolkit.

Nvidia says NemoClaw "installs NVIDIA OpenShell to enforce policy-based privacy and security guardrails, giving users control over how agents behave and handle data." Nvidia OpenShell is a brand new open source runtime from that company that enables AI agents to "operate and adapt faster and more safely."

Developers can now access Nvidia's Agent Toolkit and OpenShell and try a preview version of NemoClaw. NemoClaw is a simple installation that requires just a single command in the terminal. NemoClaw can be accessed here.
