Manus combines contact research with personalized writing to build outreach campaigns that feel individual at scale. It researches each prospect, identifies relevant personalization angles, and drafts messages that reference specific context — not generic templates that everyone recognizes as mass outreach.
Sales teams, business development professionals, recruiters, and marketers doing outbound campaigns
Provide a list of names, companies, and any existing context. Tell Manus the outreach purpose: sales, partnership, recruiting, or press.
Describe the core value proposition, the ask, the tone, and the length target. Provide 1-2 examples of outreach you're happy with as style references.
For each prospect, Manus researches their company and role online, identifies a specific personalization angle, then drafts a message that references that specific context.
Receive all drafts in a structured format (CSV or document) with personalization notes explaining why each angle was chosen — ready for your review and sending.
Personalized cold outreach to target accounts
I'm targeting 25 VP of Engineering contacts at Series B SaaS companies. Research each person's background and their company's current tech stack, then draft a personalized cold email connecting our developer productivity platform to a specific relevant challenge for each. 100-150 words each.
Reaching integration partners
Draft partnership outreach emails to these 15 complementary tool companies. Research each company's recent product updates to identify where an integration with our platform would be most valuable to their customers, and open the email with that specific angle.
VC firm warm introduction requests
Draft outreach emails to these 20 VC funds for fundraising. Research each firm's portfolio and investment thesis, identify which of our metrics and positioning would most resonate with their stated focus areas, and personalize the intro accordingly.
Share 2-3 actual outreach emails that have worked well for you. Manus analyzes the style, length, structure, and tone — then replicates it across the campaign.
"Spend 2 minutes max of research per prospect" gives Manus a time budget that produces good personalization without over-engineering each message.
"Include a one-line note for me explaining the personalization angle for each draft" helps you review quality quickly and understand the rationale without reading every word.
Group prospects by job title or persona and give Manus slightly different instructions for each group: "for VPs of Engineering focus on technical depth; for CTOs focus on business outcomes."
