From my testing, Manus definitely seems like the most capable "run with a task" agent I've seen so far. I haven't used it for coding yet, though; only research and content generation. Excited to try it out more!

I'm currently working on a tool for lead discovery and understanding. If you are trying to launch your product, I'd love to have you try it out and see what you think. DM me for access! It takes just minutes to set up, and it will automatically start scraping for valuable leads and pain points.
