Announced on June 24, 2026, the cloud-based AI can understand requests, plan actions, and complete tasks on behalf of users.

Unlike conventional assistants that only respond to commands, EllaClaw works in the background to simplify complex workflows.
It keeps users informed about every action it performs, aiming to make advanced AI practical for everyday use, especially in emerging markets.
Cross-App Intelligence and GUI Navigation
A key upgrade is EllaClaw's ability to understand graphical user interfaces (GUI).
This allows it to navigate third-party apps like shopping, transportation, food delivery, and smart home platforms without direct integrations.
With user permission, EllaClaw performs actions visibly on the screen. This transparency gives users confidence in the AI's automation, as they can follow each step.
Over 40 Smart Skills for Device Optimization
EllaClaw also serves as an intelligent device management assistant. It monitors and optimizes battery life, mobile data, storage, RAM, and CPU performance.

Smart Power Drain Check detects battery-draining apps and optimizes background activity.
Instant Cool-down Relief lowers device temperature during heavy workloads, while Smart Data Guardian tracks data usage and helps avoid excessive consumption—particularly useful in regions with limited mobile data plans.
Personalization is enhanced through persistent memory, allowing EllaClaw to learn user habits over time. The Morning Briefing combines calendar events, travel itineraries, weather, and news.

Relationship-focused features remind users to contact family, notify about weather changes, and provide contextual reminders.
EllaClaw extends to cross-app experiences like One-Sentence Ride Hailing for booking transportation via natural language, and Shopping Buddy for searching and comparing products on platforms like Lazada.
It also monitors smart home devices and supports routines.
TECNO emphasizes a confirmation-first privacy model. EllaClaw asks for approval before making system changes or accessing apps.
Actions are performed visibly, and supported apps require secure opt-in permissions.
Currently, EllaClaw is in internal testing as a closed beta.
