Honest comparison
AtmosphereAGI vs Manus
Same agent ergonomics. No Meta lock-in. Half the price. Manus shipped first and shipped polished — we ship honest, bilingual, and unbundled.
Manus: Managed agent platform. Acquired by Meta in Dec 2025.
What each one actually does
| Feature | AtmosphereAGI | Manus |
|---|---|---|
Per-credit cost We pass through Anthropic sticker rates. Manus charges ~$0.005 per credit with a fixed markup baked in on top of model cost. | ||
Sign in without a Meta account Since the Meta acquisition, every Manus signin (even email) redirects through Facebook OIDC. We do Google, Microsoft, Apple, and magic-link email. | ||
Bring-your-own Anthropic key Drop in your own Anthropic API key and we bill $0 for tokens — only the orchestrator fee. Manus has no BYO key option. | ||
First-class Bengali UI Full EN + BN parity on every visible string. Manus ships English only based on public-surface scrape. | ||
Cloud sandbox / Cloud Computer Manus gates the full desktop Cloud Computer behind the $200/mo Pro tier. Our sandbox is a per-task isolated VM included on every tier — desktop view is on the roadmap (AW-91). | ||
Wide Research (parallel agent fan-out) Manus runs 100s of agents in parallel against an item list. We have the swarm primitive in engine (AW-99) but it's not yet wired to the composer. | ||
Live VNC desktop view of the agent Manus exposes VNC + VS Code + mobile preview inside the sandbox via OTP-gated tunnels. Ours is text-output only today. | ||
Native iOS app Manus ships a polished iOS app. We're web-only by design for now (user directive 2026-05-30). |
