Meet Manus
Manus suits people who want to hand a multi-step task to an agent and get a finished piece of work back, such as a research summary, a website or a slide deck. Its Wide Research feature spreads one request across many items. Credits are the main cost control, so start with a small task and watch how many credits it uses.
A practical workflow
- Pick one bounded task with a result you can check
- Run it and read how the agent worked
- Compare the output with your own sources
- Scale up to Wide Research or scheduled tasks once credit use is clear
