""I got an email from Anthropic that I had to rename the project," he said. "Kudos, they were really nice. They didn't send their lawyers. They sent someone internally.""
""Everything that could have gone wrong today went wrong," he said."
""This is all vibe-coded," Steinberger said. "I don't know if any company would touch it, because we just haven't solved some things.""
Anthropic owns the Clawd trademark and the Claude name and emailed to request that the Clawdbot project be renamed. The viral AI agent was renamed Moltbot after the request, and the change created timing problems and social media recognition challenges. The Moltbot X handle was briefly taken by crypto sellers before platform staff helped reclaim it. Venture capital interest exists, but frequent contact from security researchers and unresolved technical risks could deter potential acquirers. The creator prefers Moltbot to operate as a foundation or nonprofit rather than being absorbed in a large acquisition.
