About this episode
Shane Mac discusses his app Convos, which allows users to interact with AI agents on their phones.
On X, Shane Mac showed how he created an OpenClaw agent and asked it to copy an app. In this interview, he showed how his app Convos, does it. This interview is more visual than our usual ones, so you should head over to our YouTube channel for builders to see it. Shane Mac is the founder of XMTP , the protocol behind Convos, a chat app that allows users to launch and interact with AI agents like OpenClaw and Hermes on their phones. He is building tools that make agents more personal, more mobile, and more useful in everyday life, from coordination and planning to app creation and information monitoring.
