Cue by Manus
Manus describes Cue as a standalone app for a personal team of agents on mobile and desktop, where each agent has its own email, phone number, wallet and computer.
The decision in plain English
Check what each agent's wallet and phone number can do, and what spending limits and approvals apply, before inviting it into your accounts. Access currently needs an invitation code.
Best fit
People who want several agents with separate identities that hand work to each other, and who will review the final result.
Poor fit
Anyone who needs published spending limits, retention terms or a public price before connecting accounts; none was established in the source we read.
