Small charities can't afford developers. This one runs its day-to-day operations on its own Manus-built website, which saves a lot of time, for $10 a month plus volunteer hours.

A small charity they help with needed software to manage its day-to-day operations, so they had it vibe-coded using Manus instead of hiring developers to build it from scratch.
The charity now has its own working website that saves them a lot of time, with the cost of that kind of software dropping from the tens of thousands of dollars it would once have cost to about $10 a month plus volunteer hours.
If a small organisation you help with needs custom software but can't afford to hire developers, describe its day-to-day workflow to [an AI coding agent like Manus] and have it vibe-code a working website or tool for managing it, rather than buying an expensive off-the-shelf platform.
