Impact
By enabling uninterrupted, multi-step online workflows—from placing orders and managing emails to scraping data—Cloud Browser introduces agentic workflows to personal browsing. Its strong encryption and user-driven controls set a new privacy standard in agentic browsing, placing Manus ahead of competitors. This move also heats up the race in the AI-browser space: Perplexity, for instance, is preparing to launch its agentic browser “Comet,” giving Manus a clear challenger in the emerging landscape of AI-native web tools.
