How to use Manus Studio for small business
A marketing coordinator could ask Manus to draft a 30-to-60-second product ad, then swap the music and drop in a real product photo on the Video Editor timeline, instead of regenerating the whole clip from a new prompt. A consultant could keep a client proposal, spreadsheet and slide deck in one Studio project, and use Computer Use so Manus works in a visible workspace on the files and apps you have approved. A business owner away from the desk could ask Manus to find the latest deck in a launch folder and send it over, while watching the desktop from their phone.
Manus 2.0 is available now on the web, desktop and mobile. Video Editor is aimed at short ads, tutorials and similar clips. Cloud Computer is a separate, purchased environment for projects that need to stay on when your laptop closes. The announcement does not list plan names, a Studio price, or country availability.
Most useful for: Executive Assistant – Prepare meeting packs, briefing notes and papers for the executive, Business Analyst – Write the findings, the options and a recommended next step for the decision-makers, Marketing Manager – Write the marketing plan and budget for the quarter, including goals, channels and campaigns
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to buy a Cloud Computer to use Studio?
No. Studio is the upgraded desktop workspace in Manus 2.0. A Cloud Computer is a separate, purchased environment for projects that need a machine that stays up when your laptop closes, such as a long-running automation or a multiplayer game server.
Can I edit a video Manus makes, or do I have to prompt again from scratch?
You can edit it. Video Editor gives you a timeline with the clips, images, text, motion graphics and audio as separate pieces, so you can swap a song, drop in your own footage, or move an animation, then export. You can also ask Manus to take another pass from your edits.
