Delagents and Manus
Manus takes a task and works in a cloud sandbox until it is done, asking clarifying questions and letting you interrupt. Delagents is designed for the moment after the demo, when the account is real. Snapshot from public pages as of September 2026.
| Dimension | Manus | Delagents |
|---|---|---|
| How work is described | Hand over a task; the agent works in a cloud sandbox until done | Write a brief that describes the outcome. An agent on staff plans and runs it, stopping at checkpoints you set and at a floor nobody can loosen. |
| Human in the loop | Clarifying questions, interruptible; built to run unattended | A shared approvals Inbox is the centre of the product: exact action, preview, cost, who else can decide, and an audit record of every sign-off. |
| Integrations | Browsing and files; connectors growing | Your team's tools with least-privilege scopes, a vault and per-agent grants |
| Pricing model | Credit-based tiers | Seats plus usage credits. Starter is free; Team and Business add the builder, budgets, audit export and API. |
| Ideal user | Individuals wanting a task done end to end | Teams that need a shared queue, a record and budgets |
