  • Generate websites, a course and a 318-page ebook

    A newsletter author used Manus over three days to produce websites, interactive courses and a 318-page ebook from simple prompts.

    How it went She got a deployed interactive course site and a 318-page formatted ebook, though design and branding needed polish and prompts needed review. A third test, an infographic, came out illegible even after retries.

  • Review Meta ad performance inside Ads Manager

    An agency tested Manus on a real ecommerce client's Meta ads account; it reported a 14.25x ROAS against an actual 1.76x and corrected itself only when challenged.

    How it went Manus reported January ROAS of 14.25x and 30-day ROAS of 7.04x. When asked if it was sure, it rechecked and gave 1.76. Its advice was generic, and Skaleit rated strategic scaling 1 out of 5.

  • Compile journalist lists and search apartment listings

    A reporter tested Manus on building a reporter list, searching NYC rentals and finding award candidates; results were thin at first, and a three-hour search yielded only three full profiles.

    How it went The reporter list took a little over an hour and the apartment search under half an hour. The award search ran three hours and produced only three full profiles. The 50-name list was skewed, and she gave up when the system warned about too much input.

  • Turn lead CSVs and sales data into dashboards

    Manus turned a large lead CSV into a dashboard in about 20 minutes and charted coffee shop sales data with Python, though it sometimes looped and drained credits.

    How it went The user review says the lead CSV became a clean dashboard in about 20 minutes. The sales data was processed well and charted. Error loops burned credits, and the site rates value for money 2 out of 5.
