一场天价收购与一份"亿元ARR"名单，近日引起AI圈热议。 不久前，Manus被Meta以20亿美元的天价收购。在交易落锤前夕，Manus披露其年度经常性收入（ARR）已突破1亿美 元 （最新达1.25亿美元） ，以惊人的速度拿到了"1亿美元ARR俱乐部"的入场券。 Manus的爆发并非孤例。算上它，今年已有9家AI应用公司跻身这一顶尖俱乐部，其中包括AI编程领域的当红炸子鸡 Cursor、Lovable，以及AI搜索的明星公司Perplexity。 在这份名单中，比规模更具冲击力的，是它们增长的速度。 Lovable仅耗时8个月，Cursor用了12个月，Perplexity与ElevenLabs也分别只用了14和22个月。这些头部玩家，几乎一 半都在两年内完成了从0到1亿美元的跨越。 这背后是交付逻辑的根本转变。 这些商业化跑得最快的公司，无一例外都做对了一件事：不卖能力本身，而是直接卖结果。 例如，Perplexity和Replit并不直接出售"搜索能力"或"编程能力"，而是出售可信结果的整合，以及应用的运行、托管 与交付。 这印证了一个关键趋势：当AI极大降低了代码、内容等领域的生产门槛，商业价值的核 ...

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the contrasting fates of two AI companies, HeyGen and Manus, highlighting how regulatory compliance and strategic decisions have led to HeyGen's success and Manus's struggles amid U.S. scrutiny [1][2][3]. Group 1: Company Backgrounds - HeyGen, founded by Chinese entrepreneurs, is an AI video generation platform that allows users to create professional videos quickly, supporting 175 languages and serving 85,000 global clients [3][4][26]. - Manus, also founded by Chinese entrepreneurs, operates in the AI space but has faced challenges due to U.S. regulatory investigations, particularly the Reverse CFIUS inquiry [1][2][22]. Group 2: Strategic Decisions and Compliance - HeyGen successfully relocated its headquarters from Shenzhen to Los Angeles in 2022 and completely divested from Chinese investors by 2023, effectively distancing itself from potential regulatory issues [20][23]. - Manus, in contrast, has retained its Chinese corporate structure and investors, which has drawn increased scrutiny from U.S. regulators, especially after its recent high-profile marketing efforts [25][28][29]. Group 3: Financial Trajectories - HeyGen raised approximately $9 million in seed funding from notable investors like Sequoia China and IDG Capital, followed by a $5.6 million round in 2023, leading to a valuation of $500 million [15][19][20]. - Manus's financial activities have been less clear, with its recent fundraising efforts occurring under the shadow of regulatory concerns, potentially limiting its growth prospects [25][28]. Group 4: Market Positioning and Risks - HeyGen has positioned itself as a "low-profile leader" in the AI video generation market, focusing on marketing and education applications, which appear to be less sensitive to regulatory scrutiny [26][27]. - Manus's high-profile marketing and attempts to enter the Chinese market have raised alarms among U.S. regulators, complicating its operational landscape and leading to mixed perceptions in both the U.S. and China [29][30]. Group 5: Lessons and Future Considerations - The experiences of HeyGen and Manus illustrate the importance of strategic positioning in the face of geopolitical tensions, emphasizing the need for companies to choose between markets rather than attempting to operate in both simultaneously [30][31]. - The article suggests that future AI entrepreneurs must carefully consider their corporate structures and compliance strategies to navigate the evolving regulatory landscape [36][37].
