Prosus Develops OpenClaw Rival to Avoid Europe Privacy Concerns

What happened

Prosus NV launched ToqanClaw, an in-house version of the popular OpenClaw AI agent for booking and complex tasks, built on its Toqan platform with stricter EU privacy controls.

Context and impact

Clear example of European sovereignty strategy — rather than adopting a US agent product, a major European player builds its own stack to control data. Targets 5M+ merchants and restaurants across Prosus portfolio companies (Just Eat Takeaway, iFood, Delivery Hero stakes). Strengthens the European Sovereign AI argument.

Details

• Built on Toqan platform
• Data stays under user control
• No training of third-party models
• Target: 5M+ merchants in Prosus portfolio
