Wednesday, December 31, 2025Meta Snaps Up AI Agent Startup Manus for $2B
Meta has acquired Manus, a Singapore-based AI agent developer, for over $2 billion, signaling the future of enterprise AI. The deal wrapped in just 10 days, making it Meta's aggressive move to dominate AI infrastructure after investing $14.3 billion in Scale AI earlier this year.
Why this matters: Manus hit $100 million in annualized revenue just eight months after launch, proving AI agents aren't just hype—they're profitable. The platform handles real tasks: resume screening, trip planning, stock analysis. This acquisition shows where competitive advantage now lies: not just building models, but turning them into products people actually pay for.
