Handy for Manus users who need bots and scrapers running around the clock, but files are deleted if the subscription lapses.
Kenning's take
What it does
Manus Cloud Computer is a dedicated Ubuntu server that Manus sets up and runs for the user, so bots, scheduled scrapers, databases and self-hosted tools keep working when the laptop is closed. Unlike a normal Manus chat, files and installed tools stay on the machine between sessions. It is a paid monthly add-on, and if the subscription lapses the machine and its files are deleted.
- Runs 24/7 with a dedicated public IP
- Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS
- Files and installed tools persist between tasks
- Hosts Slack, Discord or WhatsApp bots and tools such as Metabase or Home Assistant
- Standard and Advanced plans
Who it suits. Manus users without server skills who want automations or small apps running around the clock.
