Manus for Slack is an AI agent that can research discussions, create presentation-ready slides, and summarize messages across channels. It is an interesting new entrant in the Slack AI space. But for most teams, having direct access to the world's best AI models is more versatile and reliable.
Manus is a single AI agent with undisclosed underlying models. Plug and AI gives you direct access to 300+ models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral and more. You choose the best model for each task — whether it is coding with Claude, creative writing with GPT-5.2, or research with Gemini.
Manus does not publicly list pricing. Plug and AI is fully transparent: $0/month fixed cost, pay per use with transparent pricing. 90% of your payment becomes usable credits (10% service fee). No surprises, no hidden fees, no per-seat charges.
Manus may require a paid Slack plan for its AI features. Plug and AI works on free Slack plans — @mentions, direct messages, /ai commands, thread conversations, image analysis, image generation, and App Home all work without a paid Slack subscription.
GPT-5.2, Claude Opus 4.6, Gemini 3 Pro — these are the most capable and well-tested AI models available. Plug and AI routes directly to these providers, giving you their full capabilities without an intermediary agent layer.
