FREE Manus AI Agent Alternatives!

today I'm going to show you the best alternatives to Mammoth AI which is a very powerful AI agent but the biggest

issues with Manis are that number one most people don't have an invitation code yet and number two even when you do have an invitation code it's quite limited because it's in beta right which means that you run out of credits you can only use it so many times you can only create so many projects per day

with it and so today we're going to be looking at some of the best alternatives to Manis and these are completely free like autonomous AI agents that you can just go off and use a web right now we're going to be comparing several actually today including open Manus Claude coder convergence and Al right so

Al is this AI agent which you can see right here and basically inside here you can just put in a question and then it'll use the AI agent to go off Google stuff search a web convergence AI is

pretty powerful as well and we'll be coming on to this too this is like chat GPT operator but again you don't pay for it on the free plan and then also it can just go off and I can do all sorts of stuff right I can even do deep work as well if you ask it to another option is

Claude Coda so if you want to see an example of that let me pull this up for you right here so we have open Manus and Claude coder running over here and Claude is another free coder that you can use you can actually create some pretty cool stuff I'll show you some of the stuff we created with it today and

additionally we have open Manus right it's actually a lot better when I started using the API directly with open Manus which I'll come on to in a minute right so if you use clae inside open Manus it's a lot better than versus when you use like open Ai and that sort of

thing so we'll be running through exactly how to use this how it goes step by step Etc and we'll also be coming on to like tutorials for each so if you want to get started with Manus obviously once you've got an invitation code you can go in here and you can ask it to do stuff one of the other biggest issues though however is that if you for example create an app so for example here I wanted to create like an aiso content writer when I use Manus to do this it's actually using Manus computer and the problem with Manis computer rather than Manus dospace is that it will host an app right and then when I log in next time that's not hosted on like a permanent subdomain it means that basically any apps I create won't be running next time I go off to use them unless I host them on my own private custom domain also you can see here it's quite buggy right so I can scroll down and there's all this open space Manus is not perfect it creates some mind-blowing stuff but it's not perfect whereas if we compare it to say something like Al we'll say here for example like create an SEO cost calculator in HTML we run that terminal request right here and you can see this is processing now so it does take a little bit of time to come back to us hopefully that should start working in a minute so the other thing with Manus as well is it takes a long time too if you look at the demos on the website for Manus there's some really cool and impressive stuff here but like for example if you click on this the speed at which this is generated is not the same as the ual speed inside here right so for example you can see if we check Manis working I actually gave it this prompt 2 hours ago and it's still creating the prompt as you can see right it's still creating the environment and everything else so it is quite slow to respond and that sort of thing Al which is open source available on GitHub then you can see here we've got the HTML ready to go pretty much instantly and if we go to test this we'll just test it out at live weave. com plug in the HTML code that we got from Al like you can see and we've got this working cost calculator then if we do test 100 1,000 100 click calculate to cost is that working yeah so you've got an example right there of how of the cost calculator you can build actually not working but I'm sure you can go back and forth with ow in the chat and that's

basically one way you can use this right now inside here as well you can set your environment variables right so you can see here for example I've plugged in my open AI key you can plug in a quen key a DC key and also a Google API key right so you can get a free API from aist studio. goole. com and then use Al as your AI agent right so if you go to AI studio. google. com go to get API key like you can see over here and then create an API key you can then grab that and plug it into our Direct over here right there also a search engine id chunker id fire cor ID so you can link it to different apps as well and then you've got the conversation record right here so you can actually copy this information you can refresh a record you can clear it as well so you can delete previous information inside the conversation and you can also see your token count over here and then it's got a few like example prompts that you can use so for example I open Google search summarize GitHub Stars Etc so let's see if that works we're going to open this up on Al now I'm going to click run and you can see It'll be processing so when you're waiting for this to run it's going to start processing now the thing that I would say about our is it was a little bit technical to set up because obviously you're using terminal right if you're using terminal to set anything up like this like an AI agent it's going to be nowhere near as easy as like Manus where Manus you just go off you type in whatever you want and then you come back 30 minutes later and it's usually done right so that's the biggest difference here and also it's quite slow so this is not fast at all trying to find the history right here yes it's got the completion tokens I'm just going to refresh this cuz it doesn't seem to be working let's see what we got here all right so it's doing the instructions so like you can see then it's doing the Google search so you can see here it's like search Google searching for that step by step and then it's using that GitHub to start running this by the way if you want I waiting for that to load if you want like all the instructions on how to set owl up directly inside your terminal then it is completely free right and it's not a bad alternative to Manus it's probably not going to do things at the same level but it's not bad at all so if you want to get access to that just go to the sap section over here and this is my first time using it as well I'm probably not an expert of this but I can compare the models based on what's working for me and the easy use and everything else so if we go over to the AI profit boardroom and then if you go into the sap section you'll see how to set up each of these AI agents right so there's a whole section on our setup and how to do that and you can just follow the instructions right there but yeah it's completely free it's available on GitHub and you can see it's running the request right here so you got for example like a user agent assistant agent what else do we have up here yes it's doing some Google searches and is running through each now does say I'm unable to directly access a GitHub repository to retrieve the Stars so not a great start there it can code basic stuff but from what I can see it's not working that well compared to something like I'll show you open Manus in a minute I'll show you how that works the UI is much better than open Manus op Manus doesn't even have a UI so you just use it directly inside the terminal but you're always going to stick with Mana sign yeah Manus doesn't require any code no terminal setup it connects to the internet it runs tasks without any problems but the biggest problem with Manus of course is that there are token limits and you can't use it as much as you want to pros and concept all right so that is Al used maybe we'll come on to like a full-blown tutorial later

we'll come on to convergence now right let's do the same prompt inside convergence and we're going to say open Google search summarize the GitHub stars for accounts Etc of camel's AI camel framework write the numbers into a python file using the plot package save it locally and run the generated file now I don't think it's going to do those bits right there to be honest with you so I'm just going to delete that part of the prompt but I'll say create a HTML CU it obviously it doesn't have local access to your computer so I'm going to say do this and then create a HTML code with a landing page EXP explainer vow right and we'll just summarize that into basically a website so we're going to run that now we'll see what happens next so converg AI is really good because doesn't require a terminal setup I would actually say the UI is nicer on convergence AI than Manis as well and it also has browser use so you can see here it clearly connects to the internet pretty quickly it can research GitHub repositories it can actually read the page as well and then you understand exactly what's going on if you compare the UI of this versus the UI of Al there's a huge difference right like it's not even comparable let's pull these up I'll show you what I mean so you got convergence AI over here all right that can clearly search the web doesn't have any problems does exactly what you want it to do first time round it's pretty nice browses web Scrolls through everything and this is free the difference as well with hours like if you plug in a the I ke depending on which one you're using it's going to cost you money right so for example if you're using something like I to generate the responses then that's going to cost you money with right so the setup of Al is free like the tool itself is free but it's going to cost your money on the API if you want to use it for free completely then you just grab a free API key at aist studio. google. com if you're using convergence actually does its magic perfectly first time around and it does it using free apis right it's even set up the environment for you so this is not your actual laptop this is just like a virtual environment where it's going off into the web and it's searching stuff on Google and also you can skip through the steps you can see what happened very similar to Manus in that way so you see here on Manus for example if we open up a an example that actually worked you can see all the steps and what it did previously same on convergence like you can see the previous steps it's made how it works Etc and then also this has worked really nicely so it says I have gathered the GitHub statistics for cam AI camel framework here's what it's done let's just open this up and we'll see how many stars it actually has so 5. 8k 5K what's that saying H that's cuz it's let's open this up see what we got here 10. 3k 1K yeah that matches perfectly with what this was trying to find and then we've got the HTML snip it with a landing page explainer right so you can actually download that file as well which is pretty cool so this has the ability to create files for you we can download that like you can see and then also what we can do is we can just run that on live weave too so if we go to live weave. com and we'll plug in the HTML right there obviously the HTML is not that nice yeah you can definitely give better prompting instructions in terms of making that a nice landing page but it does the job so it's created like a nice little summary using the GitHub repository I should have improved the prompt so that's probably my fault in terms of getting better outputs from this but it does the job perfectly so if you compare the quality of this I mean in terms of rankings and ratings honestly like this is probably better than Manus in many ways because it's faster it does the job quicker it's available to everyone it's completely free and there's no limit on the number of responses so right now I'd say that converg AI is actually doing a better job than maners in this respect it can do things perfectly in the same way as Manus but it's faster it doesn't cost you any tokens and you can get it done straight away right you don't need to set up ter terminal or anything like that Al I would say is coming in last right now from what I can see so let's try this one and see if it works all right and say search a web and then we'll do the same propt here and we'll just give it one more chance so let's see what we get back here wait for that's load for the average Jack Johnson on the street who's Barely Used chat GPT they're just never going to be able to understand this right they loot at this they loot at Terminal it's just going to be totally impractical whereas something like convergy I did that just open up chromium ah yeah look at that yes it's doing browser use you can see it's actually looking at the page and using Vision to check out the page so that's quite useful you compare that versus the responses from converg AI which one is more user friendly of course it's converg AI so let's see what we get back in a second it's still processing for now I like the fact that it open the landing page and then it closed chromium and obviously you know when it's using chromium as well to open up a separate tab it's in the safer environment right so it's not like directly inside your Chrome browser it's not got all your logins or anything like that like it's a little bit safer than just hosting that directly locally and bear in mind as well like when you're using conver AI there's no API to plug in here so you don't need to plug in your API key there's no technical setup where gradio of course like that's going to cost a bit of money on the API key or at least some technical expertise on how to get an API key some people actually struggle with getting API keys in general but this seems to be working now like before it didn't seem to work at all but let's see what we get back here so we've blogged that in with' ass it to do and we asked for a HTML code with a landing page explainer so that's part of the process but I can't see any HTML code directly in there so it's used my tokens like you can see it's rinsed my tokens but there's no output from that right there's no code or anything like that and then it's got some bugs like for example it says it seems there might be a misunderstanding as an assistant I'm here to help you implement the enhancements blah blah but it's not Jo done the job we want all right so fair play to Alpha releasing something that's open source like I respect them for that it's cool that they've done it on GitHub but if you compare the ease of use and the outputs from convergence versus Al it's just night and day isn't it it's night and day all right so the

one that we haven't really covered so far is open Manus so let's open up open Manus we've got it ready to go right here all right so what we're going to do is just going to grab the setup instructions from the AI profit boardroom so if you want to get those set up instructions inside the sap section of the a profit boardroom and then I'm just going to get this set up now one thing I want you to know is like when you're selling out Claud on this I had to install loads of dependencies right so if you want to use your Claude API inside open Manus there's a lot of work to be done there sunshine I tell you that for free so let's wait for this to load all right so it says enter your prompt I'm going to zoom in for the peeps at home so you can check this out all right so this is open this is what it looks like there's no UI but let's do the same prompt so we're going to take that prompt from here and we'll say open Manis do your magic so you can see it's completing the Google Search right here and it's opened up uh computer use browse browser use there right so you can it's open up a tab it's looking through the page let's see what it does next the other thing with open manness is like you don't really know what's going on if that makes sense so I don't know what's happening here like I get the feel for it I kind of have a feel for okay it's moving in the right direction but I have no idea if it's doing the task successfully or not because it's all numbers and it's all like tool call and execute tool and activating browser use and everything else right so when I'm testing this out it's a little bit confusing to figure out okay what's going on but you can see using the chromium in the background there so scroll down the page seems to be refreshing stuff you can see this page is refreshing in the background here as well and you can see it's also doing some Google searches as well so it's definitely got further than Al it's done a better job than Al for sure it's struggling a bit on doing some research but it seems really smooth in terms of using the browser use to be fair so even whilst we got the terminal running right here in the background you can see the browser use working perfectly you can see it's using Google pretty nice ni L there as well so let me pull this up this is a terminal this is the browser used from the AI but again I think you know if you compare these really you got to think convergence AI is still winning by a long way convergence AI does get stuck again you don't need any technical setup UI is better so the best so far in terms of performance is Convergence so let's see what we get back it's on step 29 out of 30 now so it's been running for a few minutes the other thing as well I got to say here peeps is if I have to sit here that long for this I'd be better off just doing it myself like it's not it's counter productive at this point so again like I respect open maners for doing something that's open source and that's useful this is using claw 3. 7 Sonic but it's just nowhere near on the same level as Mana AI right the stuff you can create with Mana AI I haven't even given this like a complicated task and it's failed on it right there's no output from this it's not that useful we'll do another now so I'm going to say okay create a beautiful cost calculator tool and open it up all right so let's see what we get back now doesn't seem to have worked out so what I'm going to do is I'm going to press control and C to shut it down and then we'll just run that again so let me with python space main. py if you need to do that all right so just command the C to close it and then type in pythons space main. py to run this again and from here we'll try that again so I'll say code an SEO cost calculator doing something we're just not sure what it is so some people say they feel like a Linux de looking at Terminal all the time I would agree with you it's not the nicest to look at this seems to be stuck as well but let's see what we get back in a second so I'm going to leave that running in the background just to come back to Manus as well this is the difference right so everyone says oh you can use open Manus or you can use Manus just like a clawed rapper but look at the difference here there's such a huge difference in what you get from versus open AI so now it said let's start by creating a HTML file with CSS and JavaScript for the calculator it's beginning to start doing that it's running it but it's quite slow let's come back to now see where we're up to on that AI writer that we're creating so it's using the terminal it's deploying everything Perfect all right so if you want to create really complex stuff I think Manus is still the best one if you want to automate basic admin tasks then convergency it does a good job what's this doing now open Mana is still quite slow even a basic task like this as well if you went straight into Claude it would just do it magically I'll show you an example right so we have this the other thing right so if you want to create for example AI content writer or you want to create a website so for example if you come on to this site over here we actually created this website using Manus AI right pretty complex tasks it's embedded and a video create a really nice sort of landing page right here looks quite nice so I don't think that ow or anything like that is going to be good enough to do that right this is the output you get back from open Manus which is not bad it's not bad but look at the difference in the UI between these two so you got the SEO cost calculator from open Manus over here and then you got the designed landing page from Manus AI here right difference in coding ability is off the charts so you can see the biggest difference here it all does work to be fair to it but the UI is not that nice all right so I'm going to leave that running in the background in the time

I'm going to switch over to Claude code now so I'm going to say here research J Goldie and it's AI profit Border Room L then link to this create this website Etc and we doing a web Fetch and we'll see if this can code something better so this is a free tool from Claude as well it's kind of like a AI agent you can run in terminal but it's a lot more user friendly so you can see here how there's not like loads of crazy code and stuff and it tends to be a more responsive plus it's really easy to get the hang of I've got some instructions on how to set this up inside the AR profit boardroom but essentially I just started using it this morning properly and it was really easy to set up and just get this working so let's see what we get back in a second we finished the SEO cost calculator from open Manus not bad at all it works it's just the UI is not that great and now we've got this working right now CLA so you can see it coding it says ruminating right here and you can see it loading and then it's got a timer as well so you can see how long it's been running if you just compare side by side the UI of opam Manus versus Claude code the difference is huge right now let's go over to convergence AI we'll do another test and we'll give it exactly the same prompt that we gave to Claude code we'll wait for that to load claw code has taken its time there so again like convergency I just goes off starts researching starts Googling finds exactly what we want straight off the bat not messing around today and then it's just doing all the research so actually navigated to that page that Mana AI created like you can see and at least you know what's going on here so at least you're in the loop whereas with Claude you're not really sure what's going on but here you've got the code back from Claude so let's open this up it says you want to make an edit I'm going to say just open it up so now it's opening up the page look at that from Claude code back in the game damn that is pretty nice to be fair so this is the website that we got back from Claude code fair play to it looks pretty nice that was super easy to do we didn't have to set up too much the gradients are nice on the website is clean honestly and it's embedded the URL so you can see here it's embedded the vssl inside the content and it's linked directly to school as well that's done a great job isn't it honestly I think out of every the other cool thing here is as well yeah it's done a great job there we've no messing around that's what I like not bad at all I don't like the fact that it's just made up a bunch of random testimonials like it's trying to get me in trouble here but everything else is pretty much perfect let's check if the navigation works so features success stories about Julian fq yeah this is beautiful my friends all right so here's my verdict

here's what I'm going to tell you because this is taking absolutely ages so if you want a sort of admin executive assistant that can just go off and do like research tasks completely for free then honestly I'm going to say that convergence a is it might be better than Man simply because it's available right now it's completely free to do stuff like this is super fast and there's no token limits right now if you want to code something I would recommend as a AI agent clae code I think that's right up there with Manis in terms of the design the UI you can open up the file we can code it locally and that was super easy right and this is a free tool as well to use and the outputs are super nice like you can see right here like looks pretty nice to be fair then I would put open Manis simply because it works but it's messy I don't like setting up the terminal takes absolute ages to figure out and sometimes it breaks and then coming in last but fair play to them for what they're doing I think they're going in the right direction it's just it's not that impressive and that is out right and it's just not on the same level as Manus from what I can see so far so that's my review of each and let me know what you think but if it was me yeah I'm going to stick with convergency ey for admin tasks and Claude for coding tasks until Manus AI is available for everyone honestly like I think Manus is the boss it's Crea some awesome stuff let's see what it creates with this so we ask it to create this it takes absolutely ages that's the only problem with Manis so we got this Runner game right here should be getting deployed even like the quality of games he can build with Manus is pretty cool so let me show you this for example Manus just went off and coded this 3js game and we can just go around inside the forest or whatever so you have my

verdict I've shown you how to compare them if you want to get the setup instructions for each feel free to get that inside the AI profit boardroom this comes with all of my best saps tutorials tips templates Etc on exactly how to use all of these tools and also if you ever get stuck you can ask a community there's 465 members there all dedicated to making money and scaling with AI and if you want to jump on weekly Q& A course you can as well so feel free to get that link in the comments and description you now know what are the best free AI alternatives to Manis convergence AI coming in first Claude coming in joint first for coding and then open Manis and then after that out so thanks so much for watching and if you want to get a free one to1 SEO strategy session feel free to get that link in the comments in description we'll show you how we take websites from zero to 145,000 BS this month and generate hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales and autopilot without Facebook or Google ads
