Manus, once celebrated as the "rising star" of China's AI Agent industry, hastily retreated from the Chinese market despite achieving a valuation of $500 million. Recent media reports have unveiled that Manus has shifted its headquarters from China to Singapore and drastically reduced its domestic workforce. Of the initial team of 120, merely over 40 core technical staff will relocate to Singapore, with the rest facing termination. Nevertheless, the severance packages offered are generous, with laid-off employees eligible for compensation packages ranging from N+3 to 2N. Furthermore, Manus has erased all its domestic social media presences, and its official website is now inaccessible from domestic IP addresses.
