Ask HN: Has anyone tried Manus? Is it a powerful AI Agent?

It was exposed as a Claude wrapper with multiple tools and using BrowserUse all marketed as a so called ‘AI Agent’.

Had high hopes for something completely mind blowing, but it was yet another rebranded Operator. Underwhelming.

Probably good enough to make money in the short term, but very uncertain in the long term.
