OpenClaw, known as Crayfish, is the most popular phenomenal AI product this year and has greatly promoted the majority of netizens’ willingness to use AI. However, Anthropic announced today that it has banned Crawfish. Anthropic's Claude large model is extremely powerful, and many people want to use the Cluade package for Crayfish even if they subscribe at a high price. However, the relationship between Anthropic and OpenClaw has always been bad.It has been restricted many times, and now it has directly blocked third-party use.
This matter has now aroused heated discussion in the AI community. Many people do not agree with Anthropic's approach, but Anthropic has a firm attitude and is unlikely to retract its decision at present.
Then let the large domestic AI models put some pressure on them. MiniMax, which has been in the limelight recently, also responded to this matter on X tonight. They said it quite tactfully, saying "Limiting AI subscriptions to first-party products kills these ideas before they even have the chance to be born."
Of course, MiniMax’s main statement is to seize the market while Claude subscription cannot be used for crayfish, emphasizing that its Token plan was designed from the beginning to be used across third-party platforms.
In fact, while OpenClaw is becoming popular all over the world, the usage of several large domestic AI models is also increasing by leaps and bounds. In the past two months, they have dominated the OpenRouter usage list for a long time.MiniMax 2, 5/2.7 was still at the top of the list, and as of press time, it is still in the TOP5 in terms of calls.
