Manus is an autonomous general AI agent that completes tasks and delivers results rather than only answering questions. It works inside a sandboxed virtual computer with internet access, a persistent file system, and the ability to install software and create custom tools, so it can plan, execute, and remember context across long tasks. Manus routes each step to a suitable model, can use your own API key, and scales work with sub-agents and Wide Research. Typical outputs include slides, websites, games, video, design assets, and research reports, with team collaboration, shared skills, and Slack integration. Access is through the web app, desktop and mobile apps, with credit-based individual plans and Team plans.
