Overview
- Meta and Manus announced the deal, with Manus’s general autonomous agent to be integrated into consumer and enterprise offerings, including Meta AI.
- Manus will continue providing its app and subscriptions and will keep operating in Singapore with its existing decision-making structure.
- Founder and CEO Xiao Hong will become a Meta vice president, and about 100 Manus staff have joined Meta’s Super Intelligence Lab in Singapore, which is hiring locally.
- No price was disclosed; media reports describe a multibillion‑dollar transaction, with some estimates around $4–5 billion, and say negotiations wrapped up in under 10 days.
- Manus reports processing over 147 trillion tokens and creating more than 80 million virtual machines, and an early investor says this ranks as Meta’s third‑largest acquisition after WhatsApp and Scale AI.
