Manus AI is an autonomous AI agent designed to execute complex tasks across multiple domains without constant human guidance. It goes beyond traditional chatbots by planning, researching, writing code, analyzing data, and delivering finished products. Manus operates asynchronously in a secure cloud environment, allowing users to delegate multi-step tasks and receive notifications upon completion. The platform aims to extend human reach by providing everyone with the "code" to leverage their lives and achieve overachieving results.
