Compared to Manus, Eigent is a local-first multi-agent systems. It can do things like operating local files or OS that Manus cannot. It can also execute tasks in parallel. Manus can only do tasks linearly as far as I know. As for crewai, crewai is a framework but we use camel framework instead.

We built on top of our previous project OWL which ranked top 1 on GAIA: https://github.com/camel-ai/owl in March. For the Eigent update, we haven't got to benchmark it on GAIA yet. Will do it soon in the up coming weeks. Sorry for the confusion.

We support models like Gemini 2.5 pro, GPT-4.1 and Claude-3.7 and so on. You can also use local models served by Ollama, vLLM or SGLang. The minimum requirement is a model that supports tool calling.

Excited to share our new project OWL - an open-source alternative to Manus AI with 11K+ GitHub stars and climbing…

OWL: https://github.com/camel-ai/owl

Everyone’s talking about Manus AI (an agent that can research, browse, code, and automate tasks.)

But there’s a catch: → All the above agents cost $20 to $200 a month → Manus AI is available via an invite code only

OWL by CAMEL-AI is an opensource project that’s breaking records:

  11K+ GitHub stars in 5 days
  Ranks #1 on the GAIA Benchmark among open-source projects with a 58.18 avg score!


  Specialized Multi-Agent Collaboration
 ↳ AI user agents break down complex tasks
 ↳ Assistants agents create detailed execution strategies and interact with tools and tool agents
 ↳ Tools / Tool agents interface with external services and APIs

 Real-World Capabilities
 ↳ Autonomous research, coding, and web browsing
 ↳ Runs locally on your machine for privacy
 ↳ Supports top LLMs (easily integrated with GPT-4O, Claude 3.7, Gemini, Mistral, DeepSeek , Qwen, Ollama, Groq more)
 ↳ Automates complex workflows, from research to execution
I Simple Setup ↳ Fast installs via conda or uv ↳ Docker support for easy deployment ↳ Straightforward config with TOML files

No restrictions. No invites. No paywalls. Just powerful multi-agent collaboration.

AI autonomy shouldn’t be locked behind paywalls.
