Managed general-purpose agent service from Singapore's Butterfly Effect.
Manus is a proprietary managed agent service from Butterfly Effect Pte. Ltd. in Singapore, priced on credits from $20 to $200 per month; it remains independent because Meta's roughly $2B acquisition, announced in December 2025, was blocked by China's NDRC in April 2026 and Meta severed data access in June 2026.
Caveat: It is frequently described as a Meta product; that acquisition was blocked. Manus 2.0 and a standalone personal-agent app called Cue were released on 28 September 2026.
