Use Manus for large research runs and deck building
They used Manus to break big research jobs into many parts and then package the results into decks or websites.
- What they did
- They configured Manus with a prompt, source files, templates, connected APIs, and any style rules so it could work within the right format. For one assignment, it launched 250 parallel workers, with each one gathering details on a single AI researcher. For other projects, they supplied structured inputs, then Manus pulled information from websites, used linked services like SimilarWeb, and organized the output into a presentation or a searchable site.
- How it went
- The examples described a 250-person research sweep completed in about 10–15 minutes, a charted slide deck built from event data, and a public website generated from a sheet containing 100 papers. The post treats these as successful demos, but it does not go deep on validation or errors.
- Tips
- Prepare the rules, templates, and connectors before starting, or the output may miss your format requirements. If the agent is going to submit, publish, delete, or charge anything, make it stop and wait for approval first.
Try it yourself with Manus
Help me complete a high-volume research project using only the sources and tools I attach. First, gather details on [topic/group] and fill a spreadsheet with [columns] for every entry, citing a source for each row. Next, transform the most important points into a [number]-slide presentation, or into [website/report/output], following my [template/brand rules]. If you reach a step that would send, publish, submit, delete, or pay, pause and ask for my confirmation before continuing. If a fact cannot be confirmed, label it as uncertain and note the reason.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
