Wait for technical documentation before assessing Cue’s safety, permissions, and competitive capabilities.
Two agent products
Manus debuted Manus 2.0, which Techmeme describes as the company's latest AI agent. [1] The company also introduced Cue, a new standalone application for personal agents. [1] Each Cue agent has its own email address, phone number, wallet, and computer. [1] A second report separately identifies Manus 2.0 as an AI-agent platform and Cue as an app. [2]
What it means
The product split distinguishes Manus 2.0, presented as the agent platform, from Cue, which packages personal agents in a standalone app. Assigning each agent separate communications, wallet, and computing resources points to a design centered on distinct operational identities. The sources provide no comparisons with competing agent products, so they do not establish how Cue differs in capability, safety, or control. What the sources don't address: what safeguards govern an agent's email, phone, wallet, and computer access.
Cue extends the agent concept by assigning separate communication, wallet, and computing resources to each personal agent. Practitioners evaluating it should focus on authorization boundaries, oversight, and how those resources can be accessed or revoked.
