Overview
Manus browsed listings and returned five apartments, but looped and made mistakes when asked to email landlords to schedule viewings.
Workflow
The author tasked Manus with finding a 2-bedroom apartment in Prague districts 2 or 3, under 30,000 CZK, near metro, and pet-friendly. Manus autonomously searched Google.cz, applied filters on Sreality.cz for '2+1' and '2+kk' layouts, and used browser translation to navigate Bezrealitky. The human role was limited to initial prompting and subsequent verification, as Manus did not ask clarifying questions during execution.
Reported result
After 5-6 minutes, Manus returned five listings with prices, links, and contacts. However, it misinterpreted the Czech '2+1' term as two bedrooms instead of one bedroom plus a living room. When asked to email landlords, Manus failed due to login requirements and page refresh loops, requiring human intervention to complete contact attempts.

Try it
Act as an autonomous web research agent. I need to find rental apartments in [City, e.g., Prague] with these criteria: [Budget, e.g., 30,000 CZK], [Location, e.g., Districts 2-3], [Features, e.g., near metro, pet-friendly]. Steps: 1. Search Google for local real estate portals (e.g., Sreality, Bezrealitky). 2. Navigate to the top 2 portals. Use browser translation if the site is not in English. 3. Apply filters for price, location, and layout. Note: Verify local layout codes (e.g., '2+1' vs '2-bedroom') and flag any ambiguity. 4. Extract details for 5 suitable listings: Price, Link, Neighborhood, Pet Policy, Contact Info. 5. Do NOT attempt to log in or send emails. Stop after compiling the list. Output Format: A markdown table with columns: Listing Name, Price, Link, Key Features, Notes on Layout Verification. Quality Check: - Ensure all links are valid. - Explicitly state if a listing's layout interpretation is uncertain. - Confirm no personal data was submitted or emails sent. If a site requires login to view details, skip it and note the limitation. If filters are unclear, list the raw search results instead of guessing.
