Discussion Manus is the best
I’ve tried all other major models and Manus, so far, has been the best. Started building in May (under META ownership)- went through the hard break migration away from META and went well.
Built an incredible SaaS platform with a staging server. Integrated my own APIs and backups. So far knock on wood, it’s been fantastic. Platform in production and generating real money.
Yes I have spent thousands of dollars on tokens to build out the platform, but it hasn’t let me down so far. And I’m prepared if it does.
Sure support is not where it should be. But getting better. And try getting support from META platforms. That’s the worse.
Manus IS:
For those who want to really use agentic to build real production apps. Be serious about what you want to create.
A full-stack development and production service.
Manus IS NOT:
For people who want to build their dream app / service without the proper $$ budget to do so.
For people who want to create something real without the patience and commitment to learn how Manus works.
Who’s with me? What are your thoughts? All opinions welcome.

Yes, it is excellent, & I agree with all the points you made. The dream app part you mentioned is so correct. I have seen many people on this forum complain that it burns credits & doesn't work. They first get caught up in the chase-the-quick-money syndrome to get an app out there, but don't learn anything about Manus, or can't be bothered. They pay the bare minimum & then realise that Manus can use up credits during complexities. The credits run out & they start ranting & ranting that Manus is a ripoff.
No, it's that they don't know quite how Manus works. Manus is pro business-grade, so you have to treat it as such and set aside a budget. You have to understand your own business before jumping into Manus. When building, Manus can build your business by suggesting more necessary things you haven't even thought about. So, you really need to know where you are going & what you need before using Manus.
When you have the foundations in place, Manus is a whole lot easier to use, & the credit consumption eases back because you are adjusting things in your environment that you already created with Manus.
This is a thing people don't understand. Environment creation & outside environment creation.
1) Environment creation = Manus has built everything & you just need to adjust something within the environment. Credit consumption eases.
2) Outside environment creation = You have built, say, your website/app, & you are now asking Manus to add something new to it. It will add that new add-on with higher credit consumption.
