Monica's team released Manus: given a goal it decomposes steps, browses the web, writes code and delivers a report or site from a cloud virtual machine. Invitation codes became scarce, the phrase the ChatGPT moment for agents circulated, and general agents became the main product battleground of 2025.

Curator's note: Cross-checked against the Manus website and 36Kr coverage; the official launch was on 2025-03-06.

All six styles come from one template and can be compared word for word. [引用日期], Accessed, urldate and Y2 all carry this page's build date, 2026-11-03 — a static page is an immutable snapshot, so substitute the date you actually consulted it. The address in every style is the archive's canonical page: this English page translates the same snapshot, and the work keeps its name, so one record cites both. For one-click copying use the same entry in the timeline, which takes the day you opened it. Expand the other styles before printing.
