Manus AI Review: What It Actually Does for Marketing

I tested Manus AI on real marketing reports. Here's what it got right, where it fell short, and whether it's worth adding to your stack.

  • quick wins
  • high traffic, low conversion rate
  • intent-conversion gap
  • prioritized URLs
  • and more!

Here was my prompt, by the way, accompanied by a CSV file we export from our SEOLeverage app.

I’m uploading a landing page report for my website, it shows all landing pages (organic), and their conversions, conversion rates, high intent (behavioural conversion), and average position and CTR from Google Search Console. I want to achieve more conversions and high-intent conversions, which URLs should I focus on?

And here’s the end result:
