Manus announced on September 1 that it had formally resumed independent operations under its founding team. The notice acknowledges that some users had to back up and restore data and experienced a temporary interruption to access. It does not describe every customer as affected, and it should not be read as a report of an ongoing October outage.
The company directed people who had backed up data but not restored it to its restoration portal and help instructions. It said there was no restoration deadline and that unaffected users did not need to act. These are the instructions in the dated announcement; a returning user should consult the linked official guidance for their own account.
Editorial take: Ownership changes are most tangible when they interrupt access to work. For an agent product, continuity means more than being able to sign in again: users need to know whether the material they relied on is present. The notice offers a concrete recovery path without establishing that every affected account has completed it.
