Manus, whose 1.0 helped spark the Agent era, has released version 2.0 with a new focus: video and games as core productivity scenarios.
Key changes on the personal agent side:
- Agents get identity info, email, phone, and payment capabilities
- A network connecting agents to each other
- WeChat mini-program-style logic where every QR code maps to an agent
The author names Muse as its main overseas competitor and suggests Tencent—also a Manus shareholder—is best positioned to build the equivalent in China.
