CoChat: Secure Team Workspace for OpenClaw Raises $2M, 263 Product Hunt Upvotes

Palo Alto startup CoChat ships OpenClaw for Teams with automatic security auditing via Carapace scanner (225+ CVE checks), shared agent workspaces, and credits-based billing. Bridges local/remote OpenClaw instances to entire teams without exposing infrastructure.

Product Idea from this Signal

A workspace linter that enforces project structure rules and isolates OpenClaw agent file access per project

389 ▲

OpenClaw agents routinely create files in wrong directories, overwrite configuration they should not touch, and leave workspace layouts in chaos. The community has been requesting directory structure optimization and migration tooling in GitHub issues. CoChat raised $2M specifically to solve team workspace management. But the core problem is simpler than a full collaboration platform. Developers need a lightweight layer that enforces directory conventions, prevents agents from writing outside their scope, and auto-migrates messy workspace layouts to a clean structure.

Product Idea from this Signal

A managed OpenClaw service that gives work teams shared agent memory SSO and audit logs without devops

156.6k ▲

Self hosted OpenClaw requires too much devops for non engineering teams and Anthropic's April 4 ban on using Claude Code subscriptions with OpenClaw cut off the cheapest path. Eve debuted on HN on April 10 chasing this gap and CoChat already raised 2M and hit 263 Product Hunt upvotes for a similar play, but both still leave work teams juggling fragmented agent memory, no audit trail, and no enterprise controls. This managed service gives a work team a shared OpenClaw instance with cross user agent memory, SAML SSO, immutable audit logs for every agent action, and compliance ready data residency in one subscription so non technical teams can run agents without writing a single Dockerfile.
