Delegate a mix of business jobs to one agent
Manus handled a set of research, planning, analysis, and writing tasks, with most finished and one API project failing.
- What they did
- Reviewers sent Manus, a cloud-based agent that can search the web, execute code, and organize files, a batch of 15 practical assignments. The work included competitor research from a spreadsheet, a travel plan tied to booking links, CSV review with visual output, a web page draft, a schedule for social content, and a summary of a 50-page PDF. They tracked how long each run took and judged the quality of the output.
- How it went
- The article’s table includes 10 of the tasks, and the overall split it reports is 70% complete, 20% partial, and 10% failed. The API integration job stopped after 25 minutes; price comparison and Python debugging were only partly done. Individual runs lasted between 4 and 25 minutes.
- Tips
- Keep confidential or proprietary material out of the workflow, since Manus handles data on servers mainly located in China. Break bigger assignments into smaller pieces and ask for a final status update so you can spot anything that needs follow-up.
Try it yourself with Manus
I have a group of separate work items for you: [task 1], [task 2], [task 3], and [task 4]. Tackle them one at a time and produce a finished result for each. If you hit a blocker, stop and tell me what happened, then mark that item as partial or failed. Before you submit, send, delete, pay for, or otherwise finalize anything, pause and ask for my approval. Finish with a brief status list for every task.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
