Jentic Mini, a free, open source, self-hosted tool for developers building with OpenClaw, launched on March 25, 2026, giving AI agents structured access to a catalog of more than 10,000 APIs and workflows.
The tool is available now via the Jentic website and on GitHub. Jentic Mini allows developers to run the platform in their own environment while adding a permission and control layer around agent access to live systems.
The Problem Jentic Mini Addresses
General-purpose agents require credentials, permissions, and access to real tools to perform useful work. However, without structured controls, this creates risks including compromised credentials, excessive permissions, and unintended actions across production systems.
Jentic Mini addresses this by giving developers a manageable way to govern how agents access tools, APIs, and workflows. Moreover, it includes a single killswitch that instantly shuts down agent data access when needed.
Jentic Mini API Catalog and Key Features
At the center of the launch is Jentic’s API and workflow catalog, which now spans more than 10,000 entries. AI agents actively curate and expand that catalog over time, giving developers a machine-usable map of available tools and integrations.
- Free, open source, and self-hosted deployment
- Fine-grained permissions with minimal credential risk
- Single killswitch for instant agent data access shutdown
- Compatible with OpenClaw, NemoClaw, and other general-purpose agents
- AI-curated catalog of over 10,000 APIs and workflows
Jentic describes the catalog as functioning similarly to Hugging Face, but specifically for APIs and workflows rather than machine learning models.
Integration with Claude and Broader Platform
Jentic is already available as a verified connector in Claude, Anthropic’s artificial intelligence assistant. This integration gives users secure access to connected tools and APIs directly through Claude.
While Jentic Mini is built primarily for use with OpenClaw, it also supports NemoClaw and other general-purpose agents. Consequently, developers gain flexibility across different models and deployment environments.
“The next era of software will not be built for humans. It will be built for agents, by agents. Jentic Mini gives developers a free, open source foundation for that shift, connecting general-purpose agents to real systems through an AI-curated catalog of more than 10,000 APIs and workflows. We want to make it dramatically easier to deploy agents that do real work.”

Company Background and Funding
Jentic was founded in 2024 by CEO Sean Blanchfield, who co-founded DemonWare, which Activision Blizzard later acquired. CTO Michael Cordner co-founded MindConnex, and COO Dorothy Creaven previously served as Vice President and Managing Director at Rent the Runway and co-founded Element Software.
The company raised $4.5 million in pre-seed funding in December 2024. Furthermore, Jentic was selected as the first Irish company for the global AWS Generative AI Accelerator in 2025. The company is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland.
Developer Event and Availability
To mark the launch, Jentic hosted a developer event in Dublin on Wednesday evening, focused on OpenClaw, Jentic Mini, and the next wave of agent tooling. The event took place on the same day as the product launch.
Jentic Mini is available at no cost via the Jentic website and on GitHub. The company positions this release as a step toward making general-purpose agents more usable, more governable, and more deployable in production environments. Notably, the open source and self-hosted model lowers the barrier to entry for developers working with cybersecurity-sensitive agent deployments.
