Manus is a general AI agent that plans and executes multi-step work — building apps and websites, creating designs and presentations, and producing video — through a chat interface and coding tools. Developed by parent company Butterfly Effect, it went viral after its March 2025 debut, relocated to Singapore in 2025, and was briefly headed for a roughly $2 billion acquisition by Meta before Beijing blocked the deal and the company resumed independent operations in September 2026. Its lineup pairs the Manus 2.0 platform, built on the in-house Cascade agent framework, with Cue, a personal AI agent app, and the company was reported to have surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue around the time of the Meta deal.
