You've probably seen the OpenClaw hype by now. Maybe you've even set one up yourself. An AI agent on your own device that can manage your files, send messages, and automate parts of your day? That's genuinely exciting.
But here's the thing most people run into pretty quickly: OpenClaw can't make a phone call. It can't negotiate your hospital bill. It can't sit on hold with your insurance company for 45 minutes, navigate that awful phone tree, and actually get someone to lower your rate.
Until now.
Pine Voice: Your OpenClaw Agent Can Actually Pick Up the Phone
We just launched Pine Voice, a plugin that gives your OpenClaw agent the ability to make and receive real outbound phone calls. Not browser audio. Not a chatbot pretending to talk. Actual calls over traditional telephone and cellular networks.
Pine Voice is powered by our proprietary voice model, and it's built to handle the stuff that makes most people dread picking up the phone. It's low-latency. It sounds human. And it's smart enough to get through those multi-layered phone menus that companies use to wear you down before you ever reach a real person.
All you need to give it is a phone number, an objective, and your instructions. Pine Voice handles everything from there.
Think about what that means for a second. Research estimates that Americans collectively spend around 900 million hours per year on hold, listening to that same looping elevator music while hoping the line doesn't drop. Nearly two-thirds of people say waiting on hold for more than 30 minutes would make them stop using that company entirely. That frustration is real, and it's universal.
Pine Voice was built specifically for these situations. It's already been tested across real-world use cases where the stakes actually matter:
- Negotiating with hospitals and insurance companies. This is where Pine was born. Medical billing disputes, denied claims, confusing explanations of benefits. Pine Voice calls on your behalf, makes your case, and stays on the line until there's a resolution.
- Handling difficult customer service cases. The ones where you've already been transferred three times and told to "call back during business hours." Pine Voice doesn't lose patience, and it doesn't forget what was said on the last call.
- Filing government complaints. Dealing with the FTC, state attorney general offices, or consumer protection bureaus can feel like shouting into the void. Pine Voice follows the process, files the complaint, and follows up.
- Conducting phone interviews and surveys. For small business owners, freelancers, and researchers who need to reach people by phone but don't have the hours to spare.
- Attending meetings on your behalf. Yes, Pine Voice can join Zoom and Google Meet sessions. If you've got a call you can't make, it shows up for you.
- Making reservations and outbound sales calls. The everyday stuff that takes up way more time than it should.
Pine Assistant: The Full Power of Pine, Now Inside OpenClaw
If Pine Voice gives your OpenClaw agent a voice, Pine Assistant gives it a brain for getting things done.
Pine Assistant packages Pine's full autonomous agent into an OpenClaw plugin. That means your OpenClaw can now tackle the kind of tedious, multi-step digital chores that most AI tools won't touch. We're talking about tasks that require research, strategy, follow-up emails, account navigation, and persistence.
Here's how it works: you assign Pine Assistant a task through OpenClaw. From there, it operates autonomously. It researches your accounts, asks follow-up questions when it needs clarification, plans a strategy, sends emails, and keeps going until the task is actually completed.
Not halfway done. Not "here's a suggestion." Done.
That's the difference. As Pine CEO Stanley Wei put it: "These plugins aren't experimental. They've already been battle-tested in real environments where outcomes matter. We're moving AI beyond chat and into action."
Why This Matters Right Now
The timing here is worth paying attention to. OpenClaw has exploded in popularity because people are genuinely excited about AI agents that run on their own devices and do real work. But that excitement comes with a gap: most agents are great at text-based tasks and fall short the moment you need them to interact with the real world.
That's where Pine comes in. We've spent years building an AI agent that calls, emails, and operates software to complete real-world tasks for consumers. We have a 93% negotiation success rate. We've saved consumers more than $3 million. Our users save an average of 270 minutes per task.
Pine Voice and Pine Assistant bring all of that capability into the OpenClaw ecosystem. Your agent doesn't just organize your files or summarize your notes anymore. It negotiates your bills. It fights your insurance claim. It cancels the subscriptions you forgot about. It handles the stuff that used to eat up your entire Saturday morning.
Get Started in Under Three Minutes
Both plugins are available right now at pineclaw.com and can be installed directly within OpenClaw.
Setup takes less than three minutes. No complicated configuration. No coding required. Just install, connect, and let your OpenClaw agent start doing the work you've been putting off.
Because your time is worth more than hold music.
