# Peter Steinberger

## Profile

A developer credited in this source with coding **"Open Claw"** — the open-source paradigm of an [[concept-agentic-operating-system]]. Steinberger is publicly known in the iOS/Mac developer community as the founder of PSPDFKit; the agent-OS attribution here is more recent and less verified.

## Role in This Source

Named by [[entity-nate-b-jones]] as the developer behind [[entity-open-claw]], the foundational open-source instantiation of the agentic OS paradigm. The video positions Steinberger's work as the substrate that [[entity-nvidia-d41]]'s [[entity-nemo-claw]] then wraps for enterprise use.

## Caveat (from enrichment)

The enrichment overlay flags that no canonical "Open Claw" project surfaces in third-party research. The reference may be conflated with contributors to projects like **OpenHands / OpenDevin** (https://github.com/AllHandsAI/OpenHands) — open agentic frameworks for code execution and file navigation. Treat the specific attribution as **speaker assertion, not independently verified.**
