AIbase Report On August 20, during the Stripe Tour event held in Singapore, Qi Yichao (Peak), co-founder and chief scientist of AI Agent startup Manus, announced a data that has attracted significant attention from the industry: the company's current revenue run rate (RRR) has reached 90 million US dollars, approximately 54 million Chinese yuan.
The revenue run rate is a financial indicator commonly used by high-growth enterprises, which estimates the annual value of income over a specific period. Although Qi Yichao did not disclose the specific calculation method, based on monthly revenue, Manus' monthly income is approximately 7.5 million US dollars. For an AI Agent company that has been in operation for less than three years, this performance has far exceeded the industry average.
Manus stated that the company's revenue mainly relies on a subscription-based service model, showing strong user retention and relatively stable cash flow structure. Industry analysts believe that a revenue run rate of 90 million US dollars will give Manus stronger bargaining power in its next round of financing. Based on current performance, the company may be valued by the capital market with the expectation of "annual revenue exceeding 100 million US dollars," which will significantly enhance its market position.
Notably, the strategic adjustment of moving Manus' headquarters to Singapore in July this year, combined with the financial data announced this time, shows that the company is accelerating its global market expansion.
Although the data is impressive, industry insiders remind investors to remain rational. The revenue run rate is not actual revenue, and its sustainability still needs long-term market verification. In the increasingly fierce competition of AI commercialization, whether Manus can convert the run rate into stable annual actual revenue, as well as its execution capability in global market expansion, will be the key factors determining its future development.
