One extension that turns any browser into an AI browser. Automate tasks in premium platforms, CRM systems, and authenticated services using your trusted local sessions. Full transparency and control.
Manus has joined the AI browser wars—but in a smart way.
Instead of building a brand new browser to compete directly with @Dia Browser , Comet, or ChatGPT Atlas, they launched an extension. The idea is simple: "Any browser can now become an AI browser." We're already used to Chrome or Edge, so why force a switch?
Despite being "just" an extension, its agentic capabilities rival native AI browsers. It doesn't just read pages, it operates them.
It executes multi-step goals (planning, navigating, clicking).
It uses your local context (active sessions, cookies, premium logins) securely.
It creates a bridge between cloud intelligence and local access.
I think there's a lesson here for all founders: the product/feature that drives the fastest growth isn't always the flashiest choice (like building a whole new OS or Browser). Keep shipping, do smart growth.
Congratulations on the launch. Can the service go on Amazon and order a product, completing all actions instead of me? For example, I ask in the chat which gaming laptop to choose, the chat recommends one, and then I ask it to check stores and order it where the price is best?
I’ve been following Manus for a while and the Browser Operator feels like a very natural next step. Turning my normal browser into an AI operator for SaaS tools is way more realistic than switching to a brand new AI browser. Excited to see how far it can go with real-life, messy workflows.
