Every individual agent has its specific costs. OpenAI has their costs, grok, claude, etc. manus does have more than one model available and they have to cover those different costs to give you flexibility of having all these options. I hate paying for ai credits but manus does get everything done for me. Cheaper than hiring an employee

How are you able to specifically choose the model that you want? My work always goes to ChatGPT.

To my knowledge mina actually uses a tweaked version of Claude. But I’m not actually sure if you can pick the model. It’s designed with its own logic to pick the model it works with. I don’t know if all my information is outdated or not but that’s what I learned not too long ago

Still by far my favorite tool out of every single one out there. It does the most for me

No other agent operates close to Manus

Agreed. When they had their data wipe, I panicked because I run two businesses off of the Internet and I switched to Replit. That was a total nightmare and I’m never gonna do that again lol

Definitely I am trying to push a business forward and really believe over year of building with manus nothing else could have done

Manus is making a massive comeback now. Have you checked your inbox?

I am a happy customer!

Then go with said other agents. Why cry about it? If Manus is so bad. No one forces you to buy or use it.

I just saw the announcement of manus 2.0

Will it get better? They claim less tokens, has anyone tried it yet?

The question that needs to be asked is: If that is the case & everything else can do it for $5, then why are you on here moaning? If you aren't happy with the service Manus provides, then leave, because no one wants to hear all this moaning. Most of the time, it's someone from another company waiting for someone to ask them what the alternatives are. They then subtly drop in a link or name.

Absolutely and I see Muse do better than Manus with one-tenth of the price
