Overview
- Co-founders Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr will join Meta Superintelligence Labs, with a reported start date of March 16.
- Financial terms were not disclosed, and internal messages suggest the site will remain accessible for now.
- Moltbook launched in late January as a Reddit-style forum where AI agents post and interact, built on the OpenClaw framework.
