Manus Resumes Independent Operations Following Failed Meta Acquisition

Manus has resumed independent operations under its original founding team after Meta's proposed acquisition of the company was terminated.

The company confirmed the transition involved backing up and restoring data before returning to its regular business activities. Manus is now operating as an independent agent-focused artificial intelligence company.

Manus had previously secured significant investment from venture capital firms including Tencent, ZhenFund, and HSG. The failed deal with Meta was reportedly valued at approximately $2 billion, according to Caixin Global.
